Ranitidine HCl Testing UV and HPLC Method and Purpose
This raw material specification & analysis prescribes the requirements for Ranitidine HCl raw material Testing UV and HPLC Method.
Characters
Ranitidine HCl Testing UV and HPLC Method is spread about 1.0 of sample on a clean, dry watch glass and observe the appearance, it should be white to pale yellow, crystalline, practically odorless powder. Is sensitive to light and moisture. Melts at about 140º, with decomposition.
Solubility
Ranitidine HCl Very soluble in water; sparingly soluble in alcohol.
Melting point
Melts at about 140º, with decomposition.
Grind the Ranitidine HCl sample into a fine powder in a mortar and pack the capillary tube with sample by tapping on a hard surface so as to form a tightly packed column of about 2.5mm to 3.5mm in height. Heat the melting point apparatus until the temperature is about 10 0C below the expected melting point and regulate the rate of rising of temperature at the rate of 1± 0.5 0C per minutes. Insert the capillary tube at around 5 0C below the expected melting point in heating vessel. Continue the heating and note down the temperature at which the sample melts with decomposition (at which frothing begins). It should be 140± 2 0C.

Absorptivities at 229 nm and 315 nm, calculated on dried basis, do not differ by more than 3%.
Sample Preparation
Take 100mg Ranitidine hydrochloride TS in 100ml volumetric flask, dissolve them in 60ml water, stirrer for 10 min, made volume 100ml with water. Take 1ml and dilute to 100ml with water and measure absorbance at 314nm using water as a blank.
Standard Preparation
Take 100mg Ranitidine hydrochloride RS in 100ml volumetric flask, dissolve them in 60ml water, stirrer for 10 min, made volume 100ml with water. Take 1ml and dilute to 100ml with water and measure absorbance at 314nm using water as a blank.
Procedure
Observations and Calculations
Sample absorbance at 315nm = A
Standard absorbance at 315nm = B
Difference % = 100 – (Xx 100 /Y) = C%
Sample absorbance at 229nm = X
Standard absorbance at 229nm = Y
Difference % = 100 – (X x 100 / Y) = Z%
Limit:- Absorptivities at 229 nm and 315nm, calculated on dried basis, do not differ by more than 3%.
Identification (C)
A solution of it meets the requirements of the tests for Chloride
Solutions of chlorides yield with silver nitrate TS a white, curdy precipitate that is in soluble in nitric acid but is soluble in a slight excess of 6 N ammonium hydroxide.
pH
Between 4.5 and 6.0, in a solution (1 in 100)
Procedure: Take about 1 g of Ranitidine HCl, accurately weighed, into a 100 ml volumetric flask, and dissolve it in 100 ml with the distilled water. Take the solution into a clean and dried 50 ml beaker. Check the temperature of the solution. It should be 25 ± 2 °C. If not adjust the temperature by cooling or by heating as necessary. Not down the pH of the sample solution using pH meter.
Loss on drying
Dry it in vacuum at 60 0C for 3 hours: it loses not more than 0.75% of its weight.
Procedure: Take a clean and dry wide mouth weighing bottle that has been dried at 105± 2 0C in vacuum for 30 minutes and cool to room temperature in a desiccator then weigh it (W1). Transfer about 1 grams of sample into the weighing bottle. Weigh the bottle and note down the weight(W2). Calculate the net weight of the sample (W2-W1). Gently shake the bottle to distribute the material evenly. Place the weighing bottle in vacuum oven. Remove the stopper and keep it by the side of the weighing bottle or petridish. Close the oven, apply vacuum for about 3 hours. Stop vacuum, allow the air to enter the oven slowly. Open the chamber and close the weighing bottle promptly with stopper. Weigh the bottle and note down the weight W3. Calculate the % loss on drying using the formula.
% of Loss on Drying = W2-W3 x 100
