The methods used to detect and quantify impurities in Carbidopa include high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS). These methods can identify and measure impurities at low levels, typically in the parts per million (ppm) range.
The source of impurities in Carbidopa includes starting materials, reagents, catalysts, solvents, etc. The contamination also occurs during storage and transportation.
The impurities in Carbidopa vary between batches of the drug, depending on factors such as the manufacturing process, the quality of the starting materials, storage, and transportation. Therefore, it is essential to test each batch of Carbidopa for impurities and ensure that it meets the regulatory requirements before its use.
Carbidopa impurities are stored at a controlled room temperature between 2-8 ⁰C or as indicated on the Certificate of Analysis (CoA).
