Application Notes: General

In this study, the suitability of the TSQ 9610 triple quadrupole GC-MS/MS system was assessed for the analysis of more than 200 pesticides in black tea at trace concentrations supplemented with SPE cleanup. The linearity, accuracy, precision, limit of quantitation, and injection reproducibility of 20 selected analytes representative of the different pesticide classes in black tea matrix are demonstrated.

Abacavir and Lamivudine in combination are used with other medications to treat Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infection. In this technical note, we report the separation of Lamivudine from its related chiral and diastereomeric impurities in Abacavir and Lamivudine tablets per the USP monograph. The allowable adjustments pertaining to gradient separations are highlighted together with the necessary calculations that are required for the adjusted method conditions to remain compliant with the original monograph.

The necessity to analyse drug products for nitrosamines and NDSRIs (Nitrosamine Drug Substance Related Impurities) is well documented. In this document we provide an overview of 7 of our most recent applications in this area, together with links to the relevant technical notes.

Particularly in the pharmaceutical industry, drug purity isn’t just a goal – it’s essential for achieving safety, stability and efficacy. However, purification is easier said than done, especially with challenging molecules like DNA and RNA “oligonucleotides,” due in large part to their diversity and the range of impurities that can be generated during production. Enter DAVISIL® chromatographic silica, with a wide range of pore diameters and particle sizes to meet your specific application, performance and sustainability requirements. Before you choose the chromatography resin for your next purification application, take a look at these 5 considerations.

Separation of free fatty acids from triglycerides can be inefficient and challenging, resulting in low yields. Whether using supercritical fluid chromatography or standard liquid chromatography, discover why DAVISIL® Chromatographic Silica has been referenced in third-party publications as the preferred separation medium because of its greater capacity.
