Description

General description

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.
Indomethacin drug is extensively employed as a pharmacologic agent to bring about the closure of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) in premature infants.

Application

These Secondary Standards are qualified as Certified Reference Materials. These are suitable for use in several analytical applications including but not limited to pharma release testing, pharma method development for qualitative and quantitative analyses, food and beverage quality control testing, and other calibration requirements.

Indomethacin may be used as a pharmaceutical reference standard for the determination of the analyte in pharmaceutical formulations and plasma samples by chromatography techniques.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitor that is relatively selective for COX-1.

Analysis Note

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