Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Glycyrrhizic Acid Impurity 26.
Glycyrrhizic Acid Impurity 26 (CAS CATO-C4X-253726) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C45H68O16 and a molecular weight of 865.01 g/mol.
Based on its molecular formula C45H68O16, Glycyrrhizic Acid Impurity 26 contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 865.01 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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), Glycyrrhizic Acid Impurity 26 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.
