Evaluation of uncertainty in determination of cetrimonium bromide residue in polysaccharide vaccines by ultra performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry / 中国生物制品学杂志

ABSTRACT

@#Objective To determine the cetrimonium bromide(CTAB)residue in polysaccharide vaccines using ultra performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry(UPLC/MS-MS),and analyze and evaluate the uncertainty of the determination results.Methods By establishing a mathematical model,the sources and values of uncertainty introduced in the measurement process were analyzed,the uncertainty components of each influencing factor were calculated,and the standard uncertainty and expanded uncertainty were synthesized to form an uncertainty report.Results At 95% confidence interval,the expanded uncertainty was 0. 002 8 mg/kg. The determination result of CTAB residue in polysaccharide vaccine was reported as(1. 000 6 ± 0. 002 8)mg/kg(k = 2,confidence interval p = 95%).Conclusion The main factors affecting the accuracy of determination results are the preparation of standard solution and the introduction of recovery rate,which should be focused on and controlled in the experiment process to make the detection results more reliable.
