Evaporate the combined organic layers to dryness in a water-bath at 50 \u00b0C under a stream of nitrogen R. Dissolve the residue in 3 mL of acetonitrile R, add 0.06 mL of (S)-(-)-\u03b1-methylbenzyl isocyanate R, and heat in a water-bath at 50 \u00b0C for 5 min. Evaporate to dryness in a water-bath at 50 \u00b0C under a stream of nitrogen R. Dissolve the residue in 10 mL of the solvent mixture.<\/p>\n

Reference solution: In a centrifuge tube, dissolve 18.0 mg of dorzolamide hydrochloride CRS and 2.0 mg of dorzolamide impurity A CRS in 4 mL of dilute ammonia R4, and proceed as indicated for the test solution beginning with \u201cadd 4 mL of ethyl acetate R, and mix\u201d.<\/p>\n

IMPURITIES<\/h2>\n

Specified impurities A, C.<\/p>\n

Other detectable impurities (the following substances would, if present at a sufficient level, be detected by one or other of the tests in the monograph. They are limited by the general acceptance criterion for other\/unspecified impurities and\/or by the general monograph Substances for pharmaceutical use (2034).
