Chemical Structure

Ceftizoxime Open-ring Dimer Impurity 55 CAS CATO-C4X-179355 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), Ceftizoxime Open-ring Dimer Impurity 55 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.

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Ceftizoxime Open-ring Dimer Impurity 55 (CAS CATO-C4X-179355, C26H28N10O11S4) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Ceftizoxime Open-ring Dimer Impurity 55 is typically pale yellow to yellow amorphous powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 784.82 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
