I. LC Determination
Inject equal volumes of the 4 TC chromatographic standard solu- tions and filtered test solutions onto LC. Monitor UV absorbance at355 nm. Follow procedure outlined below: (a) Mobile phase gradient.See Table 995.04Cfor specific op -
erating conditions. Inject filtered test solution while mobile phase is100% solvent A at 1 mL/min flow rate. After 1 min, linearly changemobile phase over 5 min to solvent A–methanol–acetonitrile(70 + 8 + 22). Maintain this composition 11 min at 1 mL/min flowrate, before returning linearly over 2 min at 1.5 mL/min to 100% sol-vent A.
Re-equilibrate LC column ≥4 min (to stabilize retention times) at initial conditions before injecting next test solution.
Systems without automatic He sparging may experience de-gassing problems, which typically appear as large, broad peaks
around elution time of oxytetracycline. If de-gassing problems oc-
cur during gradient chromatography, add small amounts of
acetonitrile (2–5%) to solvent A and increase equilibration time be-
tween runs. It may be necessary to prepare combined TC working
standard solution, C(d)(2), with H2O instead of methanol.
Tetracyclines in aqueous solutions are not stable; therefore, aque-
ous TC combined standard solution must be prepared on day of
analysis.
Store LC column in H2O–acetonitrile solution (1 + 1). Before and after storage, flush LC column and chromatographic systemwith LC grade H2O (ca 10–15 min at 1 mL/min) to prevent precip-itation of oxalic acid caused by high concentrations of organicsolvent.
