General description

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. Furosemide is a diuretic drug, which finds a variety of therapeutic applications such as hepatic cirrhosis, cardiac insufficiency and arterial hypertension.
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.
Furosemide is classified under the group of loop diuretics. It is used for the prevention of hypertension linked to renal and cardiac insufficiency.

Application

Furosemide may also be used as a reference standard in determining the concentration of furosemide present in human urine samples using gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Furosemide may be used pharmaceutical reference standard for the quantification of the analyte in pharmaceutical formulations using diffuse reflectance spectroscopy.
Furosemide may be used as a pharmaceutical reference standard for the determination of the analyte in pharmaceutical formulations by fluorimetry, spectrophotometry and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).
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.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Inhibits ion co-transport in the kidney.

Analysis Note

These secondary standards offer multi-traceability to the USP, EP (PhEur) 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.
