Peculiarities of Determining Bacterial Endotoxins in Oil Solutions of Drugs

  • DISCUSSION
  • Published:
Pharmaceutical Chemistry Journal Aims and scope

Issues related to reliable quality assessment of oil solutions of medicines with respect to the Bacterial Endotoxins indicator are considered. The maximum isolation of bacterial endotoxins from fat-soluble drugs for subsequent determination is assisted by vigorous stirring of samples in water previously heated to 60°C followed by separation of the two phases using centrifugation at 2300 rpm for 10 min.
