- Details on sampling:
- - The Day 0 samples were prepared for HPLC analysis by adding 900 µL of the test solution with 100 µL of acetonitrile. Buffers containing no test material were prepared in the same way as the samples to check for background contamination or buffer interference.
- After five days of incubation at 50C, the Day 5 samples were removed from incubation and prepared for analysis by HPLC.
- Quality Control samples were prepared for HPLC analysis in the same way as the Day 0 samples. - Buffers:
- - pH 4 Buffer: Each liter of 0.05 M pH 4 buffer solution was prepared by adding 4 mL of 0.1 M NaOH (aq) and 500 mL of 0.1 M potassium hydrogen phthalate (aq) to a total volume of 1 L with reagent water. A 0.01 M pH 4 buffer solution was prepared by adding 200 mL of the 0.05 M pH 4 buffer to 800 mL of reagent water. The final pH of the solution was 4.02.
- pH 7 Buffer: Each liter of 0.05 M pH 7 buffer solution was prepared by adding 296 mL of 0.1 M NaOH (aq) and 500 mL of 0.1 M KH2PO4 (aq) to a total volume of 1 L with reagent water. A 0.01 M pH 7 buffer solution was prepared by adding 200 mL of the 0.05 M pH 7 buffer to 800 mL of reagent water. The final pH of the solution was 7.07.
- pH 9 Buffer: Each liter of 0.05 M pH 9 buffer solution was prepared by adding 213 mL of 0.1 M NaOH (aq) and 500 mL of 0.1 M H3BO3 (aq) in 0.1 M KCl to a total volume of 1 L with reagent water. A 0.01 M pH 9 buffer solution was prepared by adding 200 mL of the 0.05 M pH 9 buffer to 800 mL of reagent water. The final pH of the solution was 9.05.
All buffer solutions used for testing were sterilized prior to use by filtering through a 0.45µm or smaller filter, and were autoclaved (~121 °C at 15 psi for ~30 minutes). The buffer solutions were stored at room temperature. - Estimation method (if used):
- Concentrations of the test substance, A017, were determined using the external standard analysis function of Empower 3 software. The concentrations of A017 in the samples prepared for HPLC-UV analysis were determined directly from the standard curve (Equation below) :
[Concentration from standard curve (mg/mL)] x [analysis volume (mL)] / [sample volume (mL)] = mg/mL
The standard curve equation is of the form: y = mx + b
Where
y = A017 peak area units
m = slope of the standard curve [X Coefficients(s)]
x = mg a.i./mL
b = y-intercept (Constant)
- Details on test conditions:
- TEST SYSTEM
- Type, material and volume of test flasks, other equipment used: After preparation (see paragraph "Test Medium" below) the test solutions were distributed into 2 vials.
- Sterilisation method: the buffer solutions were filtered through a 0.45µm or smaller filter, and autoclaved (~121 °C at 15 psi for ~30 minutes)
- Measures taken to avoid photolytic effects: Samples wrapped in foil
- Measures to exclude oxygen: vials filled with test solutions without headspace
- If no traps were used, is the test system closed/open : vials sealed with PTFE lined caps
- Is there any indication of the test material adsorbing to the walls of the test apparatus? no information
- The 5 day samples were placed in an oven at 50°C
TEST MEDIUM
- Volume used/treatment : 25 ml dosing solutions prepared in volumetric flask and then distributed into 2 vials placed in an oven set to 50C
- Kind and purity of water: Reagent water used in this study was demineralized and purified using a Millipore Milli-Q Purification Water System.
- Preparation of test medium:
1) For analytical standards : Stock solutions were prepared at approximately 2 mg/mL by weighing approximately 20 mg of the test substance into a 10-mL volumetric flask, correcting for purity (99.1%), and bringing the flask to volume with 90:10 water/acetonitrile (v:v). Dilutions of these solutions, prepared in 90:10 water/acetonitrile (v:v), were used as the analytical standards.
2) For dosing solutions at pH 4 and 7 : A 99.2-mg/mL test substance stock solution was prepared by weighing 100.08 mg of the test substance into a 1-mL volumetric flask, correcting for purity (99.1%), and bringing the flask to volume with acetonitrile. To obtain a test solution at approximately 0.05 mg/mL, 12.6 µL of this stock solution was added into 25-mL volumetric flasks, and bringing to volume with the buffer pH4 and the buffer pH7 respectively. The flasks were mixed by inversion and vortexing and then distributed into the testing vials..
3) For dosing solutions at pH 9 : A 25.1-mg/mL test substance stock solution was prepared by weighing 25.28 mg of the test substance into a 1-mL volumetric flask, correcting for purity (99.1%), and bringing the flask to volume with acetonitrile. To obtain a test solution at approximately 0.025 mg/mL, 25 µL of this stock solution was added into 25-mL volumetric flasks, and bringing to volume with the buffer pH 9. The flasks were mixed by inversion and vortexing and then distributed into the testing vials
4) Day 0 and Day 5, Quality Control (QC) samples were prepared in pH 4 and 7 buffer at approximately 0.05 mg/mL by weighing approximately 0.0025 g of the test substance into a 50mL volumetric flask, correcting for purity (99.1%), and bringing the flask to volume with the respective buffer. Day 0 and Day 5 Quality Control (QC) samples were prepared in pH 9 buffer at approximately 0.025 mg/mL by weighing approximately 0.0025 g of the test substance into a 100-mL volumetric flask, correcting for purity (99.1%), and bringing the flask to volume with the respective buffer.
