Chemical Structure

Cefotaxime Impurity 82 CAS CATO-C4X-120182 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Cefotaxime Impurity 82.

CATO supplies Cefotaxime Impurity 82 (CAS CATO-C4X-120182), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C31H34N10O13S4, MW 882.92 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Cefotaxime Impurity 82 (C31H34N10O13S4) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Cefotaxime Impurity 82 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.
