Assay—
Buffer solution, Mobile phase, Standard preparations, Chromatographic system, and Identification solution—
Proceed as directed in the Assay under Gonadorelin Hydrochloride.
Assay preparation—
Separately dissolve the contents of not less than 5 vials of Gonadorelin for Injection in Mobile phase to obtain a concentration of 100 µg of gonadorelin per mL. Place the vials in an ultrasonic bath for 5 minutes, and allow to cool at room temperature. Combine the solutions in the vials to obtain the Assay preparation.
Procedure—
Proceed as directed in the Assay under Gonadorelin Hydrochloride. Plot the responses of the gonadorelin peaks versus concentration, in mg per mL, of gonadorelin in each of the Standard preparation. Calculate the quantity of gonadorelin (C55H75N17O13) in the Gonadorelin for Injection taken for the Assay preparation by the formula:
(1182.33 / 1255.4)(C)(V + 0.06)
in which 1182.33 and 1255.4 are the molecular weights of gonadorelin and gonadorelin hydrochloride, respectively; C is the concentration of gonadorelin in the Assay preparation as obtained from the regression line; V is the volume, in mL, of Mobile phase used to prepare the Assay preparation; and 0.06 is the correction factor for the volume created by the dissolved test specimen.
