[0076] Example

[0077] Determination of propylene glycol content in Tanreqing injection

[0078] 1. Instruments and test drugs

[0079] Agilent 6890 gas chromatograph, propylene glycol (provided by the National Institute for the Control of Pharmaceutical and Biological Products, batch number 19001-201704, 99.7%), Tanreqing injection (provided by Shanghai Kaibao Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.), and ethanol was chromatographically pure (MERCK).

[0080] 2. Chromatographic conditions and system suitability test

[0081] 2.1 Chromatographic column

[0082] Compared with SUPELCO Fused Silica Capillary Column 60m×0.32mm×1.8μm and DG-624 (30m×0.32mm, 1.8μm), the chromatographic column: HP-INNOWAX 30m×0.32mm 0.25μm produces a better propylene glycol peak in terms of elution time and peak shape.

[0083] 2.2 Column temperature investigation

[0084] Exploration condition 1: The starting temperature was 80°C, maintained for 1 min, increased to 160°C at 20°C / min, maintained for 2 min, increased to 220°C at 15°C / min, maintained for 5 min. As a result, the propylene glycol chromatographic peak had tailing.

[0085] Exploration condition 2: The initial column temperature was 120°C, maintained for 1 min, then increased to 200°C at 10°C / min and maintained for 1 min. As a result, the propylene glycol chromatographic peak had tailing.

[0086] Exploration condition 3: initial temperature 80°C, maintained for 2 min, increased to 250°C at a rate of 10°C / min, maintained for 10 min, the result was that the propylene glycol chromatographic peak had tailing.

[0087] Exploration condition 4: initial temperature 100°C, hold for 10 min, increase to 180°C at a rate of 60°C / min, hold for 5 min, increase to 220°C at a rate of 60°C / min, hold for 5 min, the result is that the propylene glycol chromatographic peak has tailing.

[0088] Exploration condition 5: The initial temperature was 80°C, maintained for 10 min, then raised to 200°C at a rate of 70°C / min and maintained for 7 min. As a result, the propylene glycol chromatographic peak had tailing.

[0089] Exploration condition 6: The starting temperature is 70℃, then it is directly increased to 160℃ at 20℃ / min, maintained for 2min, then increased to 220℃ at 15℃ / min, maintained for 5min. The chromatographic peak time and peak shape of propylene glycol are good, such as Figure 1 shown.

[0090] 3. Solvent exploration

[0091] First, water, which has the best solubility in propylene glycol, was used as the solvent. It was found that the main peak had a tailing phenomenon. As the number of injections increased, the tailing became more and more serious, which was related to the water residue in the gas phase column. Ethanol was used as the solvent, and the tailing of the main peak was improved. When analytical pure reagents were used, it was found that there was an interference peak at the main peak position. After using chromatographic pure reagents, there was no interference at the main peak position.

[0092] 4. Investigation of linear relationship

[0093] Accurately weigh 994.08 mg of propylene glycol reference substance, place it in a 100 ml volumetric flask, add ethanol to the scale, mix well to obtain a standard stock solution with a concentration of 9.9109776 mg / ml, and then dilute it with ethanol to form a series of standard mixed reference solutions ①②③④⑤⑥.

[0094] Accurately pipette 1 μl of the above-mentioned reference solution, inject it into the liquid chromatograph, and record the peak area. With concentration (μg) as the horizontal axis and peak area as the vertical axis, draw a standard curve and perform regression analysis. The results show that within the range of 0.0991098 to 4.95549 μg of propylene glycol, the injection volume has a good linear relationship with the peak area, and the linear equation is y=332.6x-1.966, r2=0.999, as shown in Table 1.

[0095] Table 1 Investigation of the linear relationship of propylene glycol

[0096] Reference Concentration of reference substance (μg) Peak area 1 0.0991098 30.55076 2 0.495549 166.29846 3 0.991098 335.22131 4 1.98220 631.50348 5 2.97329 1004.28479 6 4.95549 1644.62402

[0097] 5. Parallel test of reference solution

[0098] Accurately pipette propylene glycol reference solution (0.991098 mg / ml), inject 6 times continuously, record the peak area, and the results are shown in Table 2.

[0099] Table 2 Parallel test of reference solution

[0100]

[0101] 6. Stability test of test solution

[0102] Take a sample (batch number: 1711220) and prepare the test solution according to the proposed method. The sample was injected and analyzed at 0 hour, 1 hour, 3 hours, 6 hours, 12 hours, 18 hours and 24 hours. The results showed that the test solution was basically stable within 0 to 24 hours, as shown in Table 3.

[0103] Table 3 Stability test of test solution

[0104]

[0105] 7. Precision test (repeatability and accuracy test)

[0106] Take 0.05ml, 0.5ml and 0.7ml of this product (batch number: 1711220, measured content is 96.08mg / ml) in 6 copies, add 0.5ml, 5ml and 8ml of standard stock solution (9.9109776mg / ml) into a 100ml volumetric flask, dilute to the scale with ethanol, determine the content according to the proposed method, calculate the recovery rate, and the results are shown in Table 4.

[0107] Table 4 Accuracy test of propylene glycol

[0108]

[0109]

[0110] The results showed that the proposed method had good repeatability and high accuracy.

[0111] 8. Sample determination

[0112] According to the proposed method, 33 batches of samples were tested and the results are shown in Table 5.

[0113] Table 5 Sample determination

[0114]

[0115] 9. Content limit

[0116] When this product is added to the finished product, the amount of propylene glycol added is 100ml / 1000ml. According to its density (1.0381g / ml), the theoretical amount added is 103.81mg / ml. The average content of propylene glycol in 33 batches is 97.0mg / ml, which is close to the theoretical limit. Taking into account the test results of the samples and the actual production situation, the content limit is temporarily formulated based on the theoretical addition amount ±10% as follows: 93-114mg of propylene glycol per 1ml. After accumulating the test results of multiple batches of samples, a reasonable content limit will be formulated.

[0117] All 33 batches of samples met the requirements.

[0118] Example 2 Determination of Propylene Glycol Content in Total Solids of Tanreqing Injection

[0119] Through the study of the material components of Tanreqing injection, the total solids in Tanreqing injection were determined in order to calculate the percentage of the identified components in the total solids.

[0120] Since 10% (100 mg / ml) propylene glycol is added in the production process of this product, and the boiling point of propylene glycol is 180-190°C, according to the operating method of "evaporating to dryness and heating at 105°C for 3 hours" in the national drug standard, the total solid is dissolved in water and the propylene glycol content is determined by gas chromatography. The results show that each ml contains 6-10 mg propylene glycol.

[0121] The total solid content (almost constant weight) was determined by drying at 105°C for 12 hours. The propylene glycol content was determined after the total solid was dissolved in water. As shown in Table 6, the propylene glycol content per 1 ml was about 2 to 3 mg.
