ABSTRACT

@#Objective To develop and validate size exclusion column-high performance liquid chromatography(SEC-HPLC)for determination of the purity of bulk material of freeze-dried rabies vaccine for human use.Methods Chromatography column TSK-gel G6000PW_(XL)(7.8 mm × 30 cm,13 μm)was used for the determination(column temperature 30 ℃)with mobile phase of 0.1 mol/L PB buffer(pH 7.8)at a flow rate of 0.5 mL/min.The detection wavelength was 280 nm and injection volume was 20 μL.The method was validated for system suitability,specificity,precision and durability and determined for detection limit and quantitation limit,which was applied to analyze bulk material purity of freeze-dried rabies vaccine for human use of 3 batches of Vero cells and 1 batch of human diploid cells.Results The resolution of target protein spectrum peak of bulk material of reference sample and freeze-dried rabies vaccine for human use prepared with two substrates was more than 1.5 with a tailing factor less than 1.5;The blank solvent showed no absorption peak at the position of target protein peak with no interference in the determination;The RSDs of retention time and peak area in precision verification were both less than 2.0%;The quantitative limit was 10 μg/mL,and the detection limit was 4 μg/mL;The reference sample was injected three times continuously at three different detection wavelengths of 278,280 and 282 nm,and the RSDs of retention time and peak area were also less than 2.0%.The purity of 4 batches of freeze-dried rabies vaccine bulk material for human use was all more than 97%.Conclusion The developed SEC-HPLC for determination of the purity of freeze-dried rabies vaccine bulk material for human use showed good specificity,precision and durability,which provided a reliable method for the quality control of human rabies vaccine.
