Specific details on test material used for the study:
Lot No.: C170806
Purity: 100%
Radiolabelling:
no
Analytical monitoring:
yes
Details on sampling:
- Sampling intervals for the parent/transformation products: 5 days
- Sampling method: At initiation, 1 mL was taken out from two test solutions in each pH using transfer pipette. After 5 days, two test solutions in each pH were taken out from the dry thermos unit and were cooled to room temperature.
- Sampling intervals/times for pH measurements: at initiation and after 5 days
Buffers:
- pH: 4, 7 and 9
- Preparation of buffer solution:
pH 4.0: The solution was prepared by mixing 4.5 mL of 1 mol/L sodium hydroxide solution and 50 mL of 0.5 mol/L potassium dihydrogen citrate solution, and then filling up to 500 mL with purified water (Takasugi Pharmaceutical, The Japanese Pharmacopoeia), and then adjusting to pH 4.0 with 1 mol/L hydrochloric acid.
pH 7.0: The solution was prepared by mixing 14.8 mL of 1 mol/L sodium hydroxide solution and 50 mL of 0.5 mol/L potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution, and then filling up to 500 mL with purified water. This solution was pH7.0.
pH 9.0: The solution was prepared by mixing 10.7 mL of 1 mol/L sodium hydroxide solution and 50 mL of 0.5 mol/L potassium chloride and 0.5 mol/L boric acid solution, and then filling up to 500 mL with purified water, and then adjusting to pH 9.0 with 1 mol/L hydrochloric acid.
Details on test conditions:
TEST SYSTEM
- Test vessel: 10-mL test tube with glass stopper
- Sterilisation method: sterilized with ethanol in advance
- Test temperature: 49.8-50.0 ℃
- Lighting: Protection from light (Test vessels were covered with aluminum foil)
- Measures to exclude oxygen: aerated for about 5 minutes with helium gas
- If no traps were used, is the test system closed

TEST MEDIUM
- Volume used/treatment: about 10 mL
- Preparation of test item solution:
The test sample (250.03 mg) was precisely weighed with an electronic analytical balance and then filled up to 10 mL with purified water to obtain 25000 mg/L test item solution.
- Test procedures:
The test procedures in a) and b) were performed in a clean bench. The glasswares for preparation of test solution in a) and b) were sterilized with ethanol in advance.
a) A portion (1 mL, 25.0 mg as test item) of the test item solution was put into a 100-mL volumetric flask and then filled up with each buffer solution. The each test solution was filtrated with a sterile filter (0.22 μm) and aerated for about 5 minutes with helium gas to obtain a test solution.
b) The test solution (about 10 mL) was poured into three test vessels and the test vessels were sealed.
c) At initiation, the remaining two test solutions in each pH after taken for HPLC analysis were covered with aluminum foil and put into the dry thermos unit and warmed at the test temperature.
d) After 5 days, samples were taken for HPLC analysis and pH measurement.
