As a certified reference material (CRM), Pantoprazole EP Impurity A meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
CATO supplies Pantoprazole EP Impurity A (CAS 127780-16-9), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C16H15F2N3O5S, MW 399.37 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.
Structurally, Pantoprazole EP Impurity A (C16H15F2N3O5S) contains a flavonoid core, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 10.0, corresponding to approximately 10 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 399.37 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
This reference standard supports related-substances testing and method development in line with ICH Q3A/Q3B guidance on impurity control, and is suitable for system suitability testing and forced-degradation studies.
