DEFINITION<\/h2>\n

IDENTIFICATION<\/h2>\n
A. Record the UV spectrum of the principal peak in the chromatograms obtained with the solutions used in the assay, with a diode array detector in the range of 200-400 nm.<\/p>\n
Results The UV spectrum of the principal peak in the chromatogram obtained with the test solution is similar to the UV spectrum of the principal peak in the chromatogram obtained with the reference solution. Additional absorption bands may be present.<\/p>\n
B. Examine the chromatograms obtained in the assay.<\/p>\n
Results The principal peak in the chromatogram obtained with the test solution is similar in retention time and size to the principal peak in the chromatogram obtained with the reference solution.<\/p>\n
