Chromatographic determination of polymerized impurities in meropenem.

A method for the separation of polymerized impurities in meropenem has been developed by gel filtration chromatography (GFC). The chromatographic conditions included a Superdex peptide HR 10/30 column and the mobile phase consisting of 0.01 mol L(-1) sodium phosphate buffer (pH 7.

Chromatographic determination of high-molecular weight impurities in amoxicillin.

The separation of high molecular weight impurities in amoxicillin has been examined by three methods of gel filtration chromatography (GFC) and reversed phase liquid chromatography (RPLC). Specificity of GFC was checked by applying the method for the determination of amoxicillin and its related impurities and linking of GFC and RPLC. The result shows that for the determination of polymers the gel filtration chromatography is a rather simple separation mode as compared to RPLC.
