Melting point / freezing point

Administrative data

Endpoint:

melting point/freezing point

Type of information:

experimental study

Adequacy of study:

key study

Study period:

April 1995 - April 1996

Reliability:

2 (reliable with restrictions)

Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:

other: The melting point of the commercial product was measured at the manufacturing site's Quality Control unit repeatedly from April 1995 - April 1996 on different lots. The average over this time frame is reported here.

Materials and methods

Test guideline

Qualifier:

no guideline followed

Principles of method if other than guideline:

Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) was used to determine the melting point of different lots of the commercial product. DSC is a commonly used laboratory method. The principal equipment used is a TA Instruments Model 2910 DSC with its standard DSC cell and Thermal Analyst 5000 PC controller or equivalent with a Gas Flowmeter, such as Sierra Instruments Model A-2960.

GLP compliance:

no

Type of method:

other: Differential Scanning Calorimetry
