Identification of impurities: Use the chromatogram obtained with reference solution (b) to identify the peak due to impurity D.<\/p>\n
Relative retention: With reference to nicotinamide (retention time = about 7 min): impurity D = about 0.9.<\/p>\n
System suitability: Reference solution (b):<\/p>\n
\u2014 resolution: minimum 2.0 between the peaks due to impurity D and nicotinamide.<\/p>\n
Calculation of percentage contents:<\/p>\n
\u2014 for each impurity, use the concentration of nicotinamide in reference solution (a).<\/p>\n
Limits:<\/p>\n
\u2014 unspecified impurities: for each impurity, maximum 0.10 per cent;<\/p>\n
\u2014 total: maximum 0.2 per cent;<\/p>\n
\u2014 reporting threshold: 0.05 per cent.<\/p>\n
Loss on drying (2.2.32)<\/h4>\n
Maximum 0.5 per cent, determined on 1.000 g by drying in vacuo for 18 h.<\/p>\n
Sulfated ash (2.4.14)<\/h4>\n
Maximum 0.1 per cent, determined on 1.0 g.<\/p>\n
ASSAY<\/h2>\n
Dissolve 0.100 g in 50 mL of anhydrous acetic acid R. Titrate with 0.1 M perchloric acid, determining the end-point potentiometrically (2.2.20).<\/p>\n
1 mL of 0.1 M perchloric acid is equivalent to 12.21 mg of C_{6<\/sub>H_{6<\/sub>N_{2<\/sub>O.<\/p>\n}}}
IMPURITIES<\/h2>\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). It is therefore not necessary to identify these impurities for demonstration of compliance. See also 5.10. Control of impurities in substances for pharmaceutical use) A, B, C, D, E.<\/p>\n
