RESUMO
Aim To explore the alternative study on rat blood pressure method and HPLC method for vasopressin impurity test of oxytocin injection from biological extraction. Methods The HPLC method for the vasopressin impurity test in vitro was established and validated. The bio-extrac tion oxytocin injection samples and simulated samples were examined for vasopressin impurity by HPLC and rat blood pressure methods respectively. Results Vasopressin and adjacent impurity peaks were successfully separated by the established method. In the range of 210~13 330 IU•L -1the concentration of vasopressin had a good linear relationship with its peak area with r=0.999 9. The results of HPLC method were consistent with the biological examination method-rat blood pressure method in the current standard. Conclusions The method is proved to be specific, sensitive, and accurate, which can be used as a test method for vasopressin impurity to replace the rat blood pressure method in the current standard.
RESUMO
Aim To study the application of HL-60 monocyte activation test in the pyrogen detection of freeze-dried rabies vaccine for human use.Methods The established HL-60 mononuclear cell activation test (MAT) was transferred between laboratories and the method was verified; referring to the interference test in the photometric method of the bacterial endotoxin test method of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia, HL-60- IL- 6 MAT was used to detect the recovery and pyrogen content of 13 batches of freeze-dried rabies vaccine for human use.Results The linearity of the amount of 1L-6 secreted by HL-60 cells, which stimulated by dif¬ferent concentrations of endotoxin standards was above 0.95; the calculated minimum detection limit was not more than 0.125 EU • mL"1 ; the recovery experiment with a solution containing 0.5 and 1.0 EU • mL"1 of endotoxin was performed to cheek the accuracy of the method.HL-60-IL-6 was used to detect 13 hatches of Freeze-dried rahies vaccine for human use, and the re¬covery of endotoxin was between 50 % to 200%.It was consistent that HL-60-IL-6 with pyrogens and en¬dotoxin test for 4 batches of freeze-dried rabies vaccine for human use which pyrogens and endotoxin test failed and the 3 batches of water for injection.Conclusion The HL-60 MAT using IL-6 as a detection indicator is suitable for the detection of pyrogenic substances in freeze-dried rabies vaccine for human use.
