Abstract:Objective To determine the content of N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) in ranitidine and its preparations by liquid chromatography-electrostatic field orbitrap high resolution mass spectrometry (HPLC-Orbitrap HRMS).Methods The separation was performed on an ACE EXCEL 3 C18-AR(4.6 mm×100 mm,3 μm)column with mobile phase consisting of 0.1% formic acid in water and 0.1% formic acid in acetonitrile by gradient elution.The flow rate was 0.50 ml/min.The column temperature was 30℃,and the temperature of the injector was 4℃.The MS analysis was performed with ESI ion source in positive ion parallel reaction monitoring (PRM) scanning mode,and external standard method were used for quantification.Results NDMA with a good linear relationship in the range of 1-75 ng/ml (r=0.9990).The RSD of precision determination at the concentrations of 2 ng/ml and 20 ng/ml were 0.5% and 1.3% respectively,which were far less than 10%.The recoveries were 97.4%-105.2% with RSD of 2.5% (n=6).The limit of detection and limit of quantification were 0.03 ng/ml and 0.10 ng/ml,respectively.The established method was used to determine 7 batches of ranitidine active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) and ranitidine capsules.The results showed that the content of NDMA was among 0.12-2.36 ppm.Conclusion This method is specific,sensitive,accurate and simple,and can be applied to the determination of trace NDMA in ranitidine API and its preparations.
