Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of biomedicine detection, and in particular to a method for detecting the content of chlorobutane in a lincomycin hydrochloride raw material. Background Art

[0002] Lincomycin hydrochloride is a narrow-spectrum antibiotic with excellent antibacterial activity against most Gram-positive bacteria and various anaerobic bacteria, but is resistant to enterococci and aerobic Gram-negative bacteria. Clinically, lincomycin hydrochloride is primarily used to treat infections caused by Gram-positive cocci, particularly anaerobic bacteria, Staphylococcus aureus, and pneumococcal infections, with good therapeutic efficacy. Common ailments include pneumonia, meningitis, cellulitis, tonsillitis, endocarditis, furuncle, urethritis, and Staphylococcus aureus osteomyelitis.

[0003] Chlorobutane is a mutagenic impurity in lincomycin hydrochloride, has a carcinogenic risk, and may offset the therapeutic effect of lincomycin hydrochloride. Publication number CN117741034A, a Chinese patent, discloses an analytical method for the simultaneous determination of chloroethane and chlorobutane and its application, specifically disclosing: an analytical method for the simultaneous determination of chloroethane and chlorobutane, characterized by adopting an HS-GC-MS method and detailed parameter settings. Wherein, in this detection method, the limit of chloroethane and chlorobutane in the clindamycin hydrochloride raw material is 0.833 μg / g (0.833 ppm). In addition, the present invention also provides the application of the analytical method for the simultaneous determination of chloroethane and chlorobutane in the control of clindamycin hydrochloride raw material. It should be noted that toxicological studies have shown that the median lethal dose (LD50 rat oral) of chlorobutane is 1500 mg / kg, and the toxicity of its metabolite β-chloroethanol needs to be paid special attention. In its latest Q3C guidance, the FDA set the permitted daily exposure for chlorobutane at 7.1 mg / day and requires at least two stages of condensation recovery in the synthesis process. The application of modern online infrared monitoring technology enables real-time control of chlorobutane residues in the reaction system with an accuracy of 0.1%. In Pfizer's darunavir synthesis process, chlorobutane remains fluid at -15°C, with a viscosity (0.45 cP) only one-third that of THF. This low-temperature fluidity enables efficient multi-step cascade reactions in microreactors. Innovations in the solvent recovery system have reduced the single use of chlorobutane by 70%, with residual detection levels consistently below 5 ppm. In the field of occupational exposure protection, the coordinated use of engineering controls and personal protective equipment (PPE) has become the industry standard. Roche's Suzhou plant's enclosed production line is equipped with a two-stage activated carbon adsorption system, combined with Level A protective clothing and online gas monitoring, to maintain chlorobutane concentrations in the operating area below 0.5 ppm. This comprehensive protection system keeps occupational health risks at ALARP (As Low As Reasonably Practicable) levels. As can be seen, the requirements for the detection limit of chlorobutane in this field are becoming increasingly stringent. The lower the chlorobutane content in pharmaceuticals, solvents, or everyday situations, the better. To ensure the quality of lincomycin hydrochloride and the safety of patients, the chlorobutane content in lincomycin hydrochloride needs to be strictly controlled. Developing a more sensitive method for detecting chlorobutane content in lincomycin hydrochloride is a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides a method for detecting the content of chlorobutane in lincomycin hydrochloride raw material, which can sensitively detect the content of chlorobutane in lincomycin hydrochloride raw material.

[0005] The present invention provides a method for detecting the content of chlorobutane in lincomycin hydrochloride raw material medicine, which adopts gas chromatography-mass spectrometry GC-MS to detect the sample to be tested;

[0006] The gas chromatography parameters are as follows: injection port temperature: 145-155°C; heating program: initial temperature 65-75°C, hold for 1.5-2.5 min, then increase the temperature to 95-105°C at a heating rate of 8-12°C / min; then increase the temperature to 235-245°C at a heating rate of 65-75°C / min, and hold for 3-5 min;

[0008] The present invention adopts a gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) method for detecting the chlorobutane content in the lincomycin hydrochloride bulk drug. This method uses gas chromatography as the separation system for the chlorobutane in the lincomycin hydrochloride bulk drug and mass spectrometry as the detection system for the chlorobutane. GC-MS combines the high separation ability of gas chromatography with the advantages of mass spectrometry, which has high selectivity, high sensitivity, and the ability to provide relative molecular mass and structural information.

[0009] Gas chromatography offers a high degree of separation for samples. Gas chromatography test conditions and parameters, including column selection, starting column temperature, heating rate, column flow rate, and other parameters, can directly impact the separation effect. Selecting appropriate chromatographic conditions and parameters can effectively improve the separation of chlorobutane and other substances. This not only provides sufficient ions for mass spectrometry analysis, but also allows for the initial separation of impurities that interfere with the mass spectrometry, preventing the impact of interfering impurities on subsequent mass spectrometry. This allows for the acquisition of favorable peak parameters, effectively improving the accuracy and precision of test results.

[0017] Preferably, the detection limit of the chlorobutane is 6.24 ng / ml; the quantification limit of the chlorobutane is 12.49 ng / ml.

[0018] Preferably, the preparation method of the lincomycin hydrochloride bulk drug test solution is as follows: weigh 0.08-0.12 g of lincomycin hydrochloride bulk drug sample, place it in a 10 ml volumetric flask, add blank solution to completely dissolve the lincomycin hydrochloride bulk drug sample and dilute to the scale, and shake well to obtain the solution.

[0019] Preferably, the blank solution is methanol.

[0020] In summary, the technical solution of the present invention has the following effects:

[0021] In this experiment, a GC-MS / MS method was established to detect the content of chlorobutane in lincomycin hydrochloride raw materials.
