Action and use<\/strong><\/p>\n Lincosamide antibacterial.<\/p>\n Lincomycin Injection is a sterile solution of Lincomycin Hydrochloride in Water for Injections.<\/p>\n The injection complies with the requirements stated under Parenteral Preparations and with the following requirements.<\/p>\n Content of lincomycin, C18<\/sub>H34<\/sub>N2<\/sub>O6<\/sub>S<\/strong><\/p>\n 92.5 to 107.5% of the stated amount.<\/p>\n A colourless or almost colourless solution.<\/p>\n A. Add acetone to a volume of the injection containing the equivalent of 0.2 g of lincomycin until precipitation begins and add a further 20 mL of acetone. Filter the precipitate, wash with two 10 mL quantities of acetone, dissolve the residue in the minimum of a mixture of 4 volumes of chloroform and 1 volume of methanol, evaporate to dryness and dry at 60\u00b0 at a pressure not exceeding 2 kPa for 4 hours. The infrared absorption spectrum of the dried precipitate, Appendix II A, is concordant with the reference spectrum of lincomycin hydrochloride (RS 203).<\/p>\n B. In the Assay, the chromatogram obtained with solution (2) shows a peak with the same retention time as the peak due to the trimethylsilyl derivative of lincomycin in the chromatogram obtained with solution (1).<\/p>\n Acidity<\/strong><\/p>\n pH 3.0 to 5.5, Appendix V L.<\/p>\n Lincomycin B<\/strong><\/p>\n Examine solution (3) as described under the Assay but increase the sensitivity by 8 to 10 times while recording the peak derived from lincomycin B, which is eluted immediately before that derived from lincomycin.<\/p>\n LIMITS<\/p>\n The area of the peak derived from lincomycin B, when corrected for the sensitivity factor, is not more than 5% of the area of the peak derived from lincomycin.<\/p>\n Bacterial endotoxins<\/p>\n Carry out the test for bacterial endotoxins, Appendix XIV C. Dilute the injection if necessary with water BET to give a solution containing the equivalent of 10 mg of lincomycin per mL (solution A). The endotoxin limit concentration of solution A is 5.0 IU per mL.<\/p>\n Carry out the method for gas chromatography, Appendix III B, using the following solutions.<\/p>\n (1) Add 10 mL of a 0.8% w\/w solution of dotriacontane (internal standard) in chloroform to 0.1 g of lincomycin hydrochloride BPCRS. Dilute to 100 mL with a 2% w\/v solution of imidazole in chloroform and shake to dissolve. Place 4 mL of the resulting solution in a 15 mL ground-glass-stoppered centrifuge tube, add 1 mL of a mixture of 99 volumes of N,O-bis(trimethylsilyl)acetamide and 1 volume of trimethylchlorosilane, and swirl gently. Loosen the glass stopper and heat at 65\u00b0 for 30 minutes.<\/p>\n (2) Prepare in the same manner as solution (1), but omit the internal standard and use the residue obtained by evaporating to dryness 1 mL of a solution prepared by diluting a volume of the injection containing the equivalent of 0.9 g of lincomycin to 10 mL with methanol, in place of the lincomycin hydrochloride BPCRS.<\/p>\n (3) Prepare in the same manner as solution (1), but use the residue obtained by evaporating to dryness 1 mL of a solution prepared by diluting a volume of the injection containing the equivalent of 0.9 g of lincomycin to 10 mL with methanol, in place of the lincomycin hydrochloride BPCRS.<\/p>\n CHROMATOGRAPHIC CONDITIONS<\/p>\n (a) Use a glass column (1.5 m \u00d7 3 mm) packed with acid-washed silanised diatomaceous support impregnated with 3% w\/w of phenyl methyl silicone fluid (50% phenyl) (OV-17 is suitable) and maintained at 260\u00b0.<\/p>\n (b) Use helium as the carrier gas at a flow rate of about 45 mL per minute.<\/p>\n (c) Use an inlet temperature of 260\u00b0 to 290\u00b0.<\/p>\n (d) Use a flame ionisation detector at a temperature of 260\u00b0 to 290\u00b0.<\/p>\n (e) Inject 1 \u03bcL of each solution.<\/p>\n DETERMINATION OF CONTENT<\/p>\n Calculate the content of C18<\/sub>H34<\/sub>N2<\/sub>O6<\/sub>S in the injection using the declared content of C18<\/sub>H34<\/sub>N2<\/sub>O6<\/sub>S in lincomycin hydrochloride BPCRS.<\/p>\n Lincomycin Injection should be protected from light and stored at a temperature not exceeding 30\u00b0.<\/p>\n The strength is stated as the equivalent amount of lincomycin in a suitable dose-volume.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" (Ph.
