Loss on drying 731—
Dry about 100 mg, accurately weighed, of finely ground Boluses 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 10.0% of its weight.

Assay—
Proceed as directed for the cylinder-plate assay of dihydrostreptomycin under Antibiotics—Microbial Assays 81, using 3 Boluses added to a mixture of 499.0 mL of Buffer No. 3 and 1.0 mL of polysorbate 80 and blended for 5 minutes in a high-speed glass blender jar. Allow to stand for not less than 1 hour, and repeat the blending. While stirring this mixture, withdraw an accurately measured volume of it, and dilute quantitatively and stepwise with Buffer No. 3 to obtain a Test Dilution having a concentration assumed to be equal to the median dose level of the Standard.
