General description

Moxifloxacin Hydrochloride is an anti-infectious compound that belongs to the class of fluoroquinolone antibiotics. It is a well-known broad-spectrum antibiotic prescription medicine effective against a variety of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria including the anaerobic type. It is an S,S-isomer with two chiral centers. It works by preventing the activity of various crucial enzymes involved in the replication, transcription, recombination, and repair of deoxyribonucleic acid in the bacteria such as DNA gyrase (topoisomerase II), topoisomerase IV. It finds its application in the treatment of various ocular and respiratory tract infections.
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

Application

Moxifloxacin Hydrochloride can be used as a pharmaceutical reference standard for the determination of the analyte in pharmaceutical formulations and combined dosage forms by spectrophotometric, chromatographic, and electrochemical techniques.
These Secondary Standards are qualified as Certified Reference Materials. These are suitable for use in several analytical applications including but not limited to pharma release testing, pharma method development for qualitative and quantitative analyses, food and beverage quality control testing, and other calibration requirements.

Analysis Note

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

Other Notes

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.
