STEAM-PHASE GAS CHROMATOGRAPHY ANALISIS OF FLYING ORGANIC ADMIXTURES IN PHARMACEUTICAL PREPARATIONS IN OBEDIENCE TO PHARMACOPOEIA USA - article

These data show the high levels of precision and linearity that can be obtained for the determination of OVIs in bulk pharmaceutical substances using the HP 7694 headspace sam­pler, the HP-INNOWax column, and the HP 6890 Series GC. Detection in the sub-ppm to low-ppm levels are easily achievable using the optimum conditions listed in table 1. Because the HP 7694 allows up to six samples to be heated and shaken concurrently using a preprogrammed constant heating time (CHT) along with preset sample injection intervals, samples can be continuously analyzed every 10 minutes. Up to 44 samples at a time can be loaded into the HP 7694 for continuous sampling. Inlet maintenance is minimized as is capillary column maintenance because headspace injection only introduces volatiles into the GC system.
