General description

This Certified Reference Material (CRM) is produced and certified in accordance with ISO 17034 and ISO/IEC 17025. All information regarding the use of this CRM can be found on the certificate of analysis.

Pharmaceutical secondary standards for application in quality control provide pharma laboratories and manufacturers with a convenient and cost-effective alternative to the preparation of in-house working standards.

Rosuvastatin Calcium, an HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor, belongs to the statins class of pharmaceuticals and is used for the treatment of hypercholesterolemia.[1]

Application

This pharmaceutical secondary standard can also be used as follows:

  • Spectrophotometric estimation of rosuvastatin calcium in its pure form and tablet formulations[1]
  • Determination of rosuvastatin calcium by square-wave voltammetry using a boron-doped diamond electrode in two tablet samples and biological fluid samples of human urine and serum[2]
  • Simultaneous quantification of rosuvastatin and amlodipine by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) in combined pharmaceutical formulations[3]
  • Determination of rosuvastatin calcium and related substances in tablets of rosuvastatin using a reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic (RP-HPLC) method

Analysis Note

These secondary standards offer multi-traceability to the USP, EP and BP primary standards, where they are available.

Questions

1–3 of 3 Questions  
  1. How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?

    1 answer
    1. If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
      For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
      For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.

  2. How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?

    1 answer
    1. Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf
