A spectrophotometric method (lambda=535 nm) for the iron (III) impurities determination in iron protein-succinylate complex syrup using thioglycolic acid in basic ambient was proposed and validated. Assay samples were treated with 0.1 N hydrochloric acid and centrifuged to remove the interfering active drug. Linear response (r=0.9999) was observed over the range of 0.005-0.2% of the iron (III) with respect to the complex nominal concentration. The accuracy could be considered very satisfactory (recovery=97-99%). The intra-day precision (RSD) of impurity amongst six independent sample preparations, was 1.4%, and there was no significant difference between intra- and inter-day studies. Intermediate precision indicated that the assay possessed high degrees of ruggedness. The limit of quantitation was 0.005% of impurity with respect to the active drug. The results obtained for iron (III) were compared statistically with those obtained with the standard addition method by means of the Student's t-test and the variance ratio F-test; no significative difference was found.
A profiling method for the identification of impurities found in seized 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) tablets is presented. Impurities of interest are extracted from an alkaline solution (pH 12.8) by diethyl ether and submitted to gas chromatography (GC)-mass spectrometry (MS) analyses. Identification of impurities is performed by electron impact ionization (Ei) mass spectrometry and confirmation by positive chemical ionization (Ci+) MS or, when possible, MS/MS (MS(2)). Repeat extractions of the same sample give an average relative standard deviation (R.S.D.) of less than 8% within the same day and 15% between days (results were obtained after normalization by the sum of peak areas, each one being acquired by selected ion monitoring (SIM)). Possible application toward batch comparison of samples is discussed. Chromatographic profiles are compared using the cosine function for evaluating similarity and/or dissimilarity among exhibits.
