Qualifier:

no guideline required

Principles of method if other than guideline:

The stability of the test material as a solution in Arachis Oil BP ( the vehicle used in a repeated dose oral toxicity study) was determined by HPLC. Chromatograms of the test substance in Arachis Oil BP were compared after 21 days of storage to a chromatogram of the test material in the vehicle immediately after preparation. Chromatograms were compared both qualitatively (by retention times of eluted peaks) and quantitatively on the basis of peak areas. Results of the analysis were used as the basis for determining the stability of the test material in the vehicle for the duration of the study.

Any other information on results incl. tables

The stability of the test material was determined by comparing peak areas obtained for freshly prepared solutions to solutions stored for 21 days at 4 ⁰C in the dark. Data is summarized in Table 3. Example chromatograms of a standard and the test material at 250 mg/mL are attached as Figure 2.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:

The test material is stable for at least 21 days as a solution in Arachis oil BP.

Executive summary:

Arachis oil BP is a vehicle used for a repeated dose oral toxicity range-finding study. The stability of the test material in Arachis oil BP was determined by comparing the chromatograms of freshly prepared solutions of the test material in the oil to oil solutions stored for 21 days. Data obtained from the analysis showed the test substance is stable in Arachis oil BP for at least 21 days. Concentrations of the test material after 21 days storage in the oil were 101 - 103 % of the initial concentration.
