The relative recovery rate for each of the prohibited substances ranged from 91.8%to 111%at three concentration levels(0.1μg/g,2μg/g,10μg/g),including the limit of quantification.In conclusion,we have developed and validated a method that can identify seven prohibited substances in cosmetic products.展开更多

In this paper, a sensitive and rapid ultra-performance liquid chromatographic (UPLC) method was developed and validated for the separation and determination of impurities in MTX drug substances. The UPLC method was accomplished on an Agilent Zorbax Extend C-18 (50 mm × 4.6 mm, 1.8 μm) with a gradient elution system composed of sodium dihydrogen phosphate in water (20 mmol/L, pH 3.0) and acetonitrile. The flow rate was 2.2 mL/min. The method was validated. The calibration curves displayed good linearity (r 〉 0.999) within the tested concentration ranges. The limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) of the six analytes were all less than 0.774 μg/mL and 1.03μg/mL. The relative standard deviation (RSD) for intra- and inter-day precision of the six analytes was less than 9.8%, including at the LOQ. The average recovery ranged from 95.2% to 103 except at the LOQ where recovery ranged from 82.7% to 117%. The validated method was successfully used to determine the relative abundance of six impurities in the MTX drug substances.展开更多
