Note: Formaldehyde content may increase during storage.

ICH-Guideline for Residual Solvents incl. Annex I (ICH/Q3C): Ethylene oxide is used as a monomer for the production of the product. It is specified to have a residual level of 1 ppm in the final product. Only class 2 solvents 1.4-Dioxane and Ethylene glycol are likely to be present, due to the nature of the production process; all are below the Option 1 limit (1.4-Dioxane max. 1 ppm, Ethylene glycol max. 500 ppm). Annex I of the above mentioned ICH guideline is not applicable.

Metal impurities according to ICH Q3D "Metal impurities" have been evaluated for the Polyglykols in a risk assessment. A separate statement on ICH Q3D metal impurity limits is available on request.

Sulphated Ash, Residue on ignition, Reducing Substances and Metal impurities according to ICH Q3D are tested in a skipped testing procedure. All other testing results given on the CoA are determined on every single batch or its precursor batch. Viscosity at 98.9°C is correlated from Viscosity at 20°C.

Complies with monographie: The product comply with all specification requirements of the current version of the Ph. Eur. and USP-NF. Manufactured according to IPEC-GMP (Excipients).
