Packaging and storage
Preserve in tight, light-resistant containers.
Identification
A:
It responds to Identification test A under Demeclocycline, except that its absorptivity, calculated on the dried basis, is between 95.8% and 104.2% of that of the USP Demeclocycline Hydrochloride RS, the potency of the Reference Standard being taken into account.
Crystallinity 695:
meets the requirements.
pH 791:
between 2.0 and 3.0, in a solution containing 10 mg per mL.
Loss on drying 731
Dry about 100 mg, accurately weighed, in a capillary-stoppered bottle in vacuum at a pressure not exceeding 5 mm of mercury at 60 for 3 hours: it loses not more than 2.0% of its weight.
Assay
Mobile phase, Standard preparation, Resolution solution, and Chromatographic system
Prepare as directed in the Assay under Demeclocycline.
Assay preparation
Transfer about 50 mg of Demeclocycline Hydrochloride, accurately weighed, to a 50-mL volumetric flask, dissolve in 0.01 N hydrochloric acid, dilute with 0.01 N hydrochloric acid to volume, and mix.
Procedure
Proceed as directed for Procedure in the Assay under Demeclocycline. Calculate the quantity, in µg, of demeclocycline hydrochloride (C21H21ClN2O8·HCl) in each mg of the Demeclocycline Hydrochloride taken by the formula:
50(CE / W)(rU / rS)
in which W is the quantity, in mg, of the Demeclocycline Hydrochloride taken, and the other terms are as defined therein.
