Chromatographic conditions and system suitability test with a sulfonic acid cation exchange resin as a filler, 0.005mol / L sulfuric acid solution as the mobile phase; detection wavelength of 210nm; column temperature was 37 ℃; take fumaric acid, maleic acid, DL – malic acid reference standard amount, plus the mobile phase and dilute 1ml each containing about fumarate 10μg, maleic acid 4μg, DL-malic acid solution 1mg as a system suitability solution, the precise amount of 20μl, injection liquid chromatograph, number of theoretical plates DL-malic acid peak of not less than 2000, the separation of fumaric acid and maleic acid, and DL-malic acid peaks should be required.
Determination to take this amount of goods, accurately weighed, add the mobile phase and diluted per 1ml solution containing about 1mg, as the test solution; Another reference amount of fumaric acid and maleic acid, accurately weighed with the mobile phase and dilute 1ml each containing fumaric 5μg, 2μg maleic acid solution as the reference solution. The precise amount of the two solutions of 20μl into the liquid chromatograph, record the chromatogram peak retention times to 4.5 times. For the test solution chromatogram if consistent time and fumaric acid and maleic acid peak retention peaks, the external standard method with peak area calculation, and its content should not exceed 1.0%, respectively, and 0.05%. Other single impurity peak area not more than the reference solution of maleic acid peak area of 0.5 times (0.1%); other impurities should not exceed the total amount of the reference solution of maleic acid peak area of 2.5 times (0.5%).
