[Analytical validation in compendium methods].

Abstract

Well validated analytical methods should be used in official tests in order to eliminate the type I and II errors. The analytical validation is the process to confirm that the performance characteristics of a proposed analytical method is adequate for its intended use. The performance characteristics of an analytical method are validated by evaluating that observed analytical performance parameters of the analytical method meet the criteria required by a test to which the analytical method is applied. Basic rules in analytical validation were described in this report. The more strict rules for determination of the limit of detection and the test of precision than usually applied were proposed.

Discrimination limit for purity test of human insulin by capillary electrophoresis.

Because of the inevitable noise in instrumental analysis, a purity test can overlook an illegitimate drug that contains an undesired substance in a higher amount than the prescribed limit. The lowest (average) amount of undesired substance which leads to the right results of the purity test with 95% probability is referred to here as 95% discrimination limit. This paper presents a method for predicting the discrimination limit for the purity test of human insulin in capillary electrophoresis (CE). The theory and experiments show that if the legitimate limit of a degradation product (desamido insulin) is 3.0% of the total amount of the insulin formulation, the 95% discrimination limit in the CE system used in this study is 3.24% desamido insulin. Since the statistical aspects of the purity test are provided by the interpretation of the baseline fluctuation in the instrument, the usual strategy to repeat the instrumental analysis on the same samples is unnecessary in the present study.

Inventory of regulations and analysis techniques for trace elements in some water supply companies in eastern and western Europe.

With the ultimate objective in contributing to the improvement of the quality control of drinking water and to facilitate the checking of its compliance with the respective regulations, an inventory of analytical techniques used in water supply companies in Eastern and Western European countries is presented. The existing regulations for drinking water and bottled mineral water quality with respect to trace elements in these countries are compared to regulations of the World Health Organisation. The data obtained can be useful for further harmonisation of the respective regulations in Europe.
