Example Work Accomplishments:
1) Current methodology for a release product did not have a fully validated method for Assay of
active ingredient. Specified product was tested by Ion Chromatography due to lack of strong UV
absorption at acceptable wavelengths. Ion Chromatography for this product was not robust and
issues with precision and other analytical factors created delays, investigations, and sporadic trend
lines, requiring method evaluation. Research determined that compendia for the EP specified an
impurities test for relatives to the active ingredient. This testing utilized tagged derivitization of
primary amines to allow for UV analysis under typical HPLC parameters. EP Compendia
methodology was leveraged to develop a robust method for Assay of this ingredient which was
fully validated, submitted and approved for use in the QC release laboratory. The resulting
validated method has eliminated unneeded investigation, improved trending ability, and quickened
release time for chemistry testing.
