Open the catalogue →EP Impurity
Impurities named in European Pharmacopoeia monographs, identified by a letter in the monograph text.
Nitrosamine
Potentially mutagenic impurities controlled under ICH M7 and the nitrosamine guidance that followed the sartan recalls.
Process Impurity
Compounds carried through or formed during synthesis, and controlled as specified impurities in the specification.
Degradant
Impurities formed on storage. They are the target of stability-indicating methods and of forced degradation studies.
USP Related Compound
Related compounds named in United States Pharmacopeia monographs.
Metabolite
Metabolite standards used to confirm structure assignments in metabolism studies and as calibrants in bioanalytical methods.
