Analysis Note

These secondary standards offer multi-traceability to the USP and EP primary standards, where they are available.

Application

This pharmaceutical secondary standard can also be used as follows:
  • Development of a reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic (RP-HPLC) method combined with UV detection to determine doxorubicin hydrochloride in plasma samples
  • Electrochemical determination of doxorubicin by spinel-structured cobalt ferrite (CoFe2O4) modified carbon paste electrode in biological fluid and injection samples
  • Determination of doxorubicin hydrochloride in human plasma samples using a graphene quantum dots (GQDs) based electrochemical sensor
  • RP-HPLC method-based quantitative analysis of doxorubicin hydrochloride in vacuum foam dried formulations
  • Voltammetric determination of doxorubicin hydrochloride and dastinib using zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticle/1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetra-fluoroborate modified carbon paste electrode (ZnO-NPs/BMTFB/CPE) in their combined injection samples

General description

This Certified Reference Material (CRM) is produced and certified in accordance with ISO 17034 and ISO/IEC 17025. All information regarding the use of this CRM can be found on the certificate of analysis.

Pharmaceutical secondary standards for application in quality control provide pharma laboratories and manufacturers with a convenient and cost-effective alternative to the preparation of in-house working standards.

Doxorubicin Hydrochloride is an anthracycline antibiotic, known for its broad range anti-cancer activities.
