Considering current practices in use for The International 47 Pharmacopoeia and available guidance on how to establish limits for impurities, the 48 following note for guidance on organic impurities in active pharmaceutical substances and 49 finished pharmaceutical products was drafted. 50 It is intended to replace the text on Related substances in finished pharmaceutical product 51 monographs in the folder Notes for guidance, Supplementary information section with the 52 following chapter.] 53 54 1. SCOPE 55 Purity is a critical attribute of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and finished 56 pharmaceutical products (FPPs), which potentially affects their safety and efficacy. 57 Therefore, API and FPP monographs in The International Pharmacopoeia (Ph.Int.) shall 58 contain specifications for purity which include requirements for the control of impurities, 59 wherever possible. 60 Impurities in APIs and FPPs may include starting materials, by-products, intermediates, 61 degradation products, reagents, ligands, residual catalysts and residual solvents. They can be 62 classified as either organic, inorganic or biological. 63 This guidance note covers requirements for controlling organic process-related impurities and 64 degradation products in APIs and FPPs, and provides guidance on how to assess compliance 65 with Ph.Int. requirements. 66 Statements in this document are applicable to monographs included in the Ph.Int. after the 67 publication of this guidance note. Compliance with monographs published before this 68 updated guidance shall be evaluated against the previous text Related substances in dosage 69 form monographs1 unless required otherwise by the competent authority. A list of all 70 monographs included in the Ph.Int. before the publication of this guidance note is presented 71 in the document titled Monographs to be evaluated against the text Related substances in 72 dosage form monographs which can be found in The International Pharmacopoeia under 73 Supplementary information. [Note from the Secretariat. The mentioned list is attached at the 74 end of this document.] 1 Once this new guidance note is adopted by the Expert Committee on Specifications for Pharmaceutical Substances, the replaced text can be found on the homepage of The International Pharmacopoeia under Omitted texts. 4 Working document QAS/15.606/Rev2 page 5 75 Excluded from this guidance note are biological/biotechnological products, peptides, 76 oligonucleotides, radiopharmaceuticals, herbal products and crude products of animal and 77 plant origin. 78 Further excluded are the following: 79 extraneous contaminants that should not occur in APIs and FPPs and are more 80 appropriately addressed as good manufacturing practices (GMP) issues; 81 crystallographic modifications (“polymorphic forms”); 82 residual solvents resulting from API or FPP manufacture; 83 impurities that arise from printing inks or excipients (reaction products between 84 excipients and APIs are not excluded); 85 organic impurities that are leached from container-closure systems; 86 fermentation products and semisynthetic products derived therefrom; 87 highly toxic (e.g. genotoxic) impurities or degradation products and residual solvents 88 (volatile organic impurities) are addressed using separate applicable guidance. 89 2. DEFINING THE PURITY OF APIS AND FPPS 90 To control relevant organic impurities individual monographs will contain a stability- 91 indicating test entitled Related substances. This test may be supplemented by a specific test 92 where a given impurity is not adequately controlled by the related substances test or where 93 there are particular reasons (for example, safety reasons a genotoxic/mutagenic or an 94 enantiomeric impurity) requiring specific control. 95 Monographs of APIs shall include specification limits for all impurities (i.e. process-related 96 impurities that result from the manufacturing process and degradation products) observed at 97 levels above the identification threshold. Monographs on FPPs must include appropriate 98 limits for degradation products and, if possible to be detected by the method, impurities from 99 the manufacturing process. This approach provides, in conjunction with the monograph on 100 the API, the means for an independent control laboratory without access to manufacturer’s 101 data to establish whether or not an API of pharmacopoeial quality has been used to 102 manufacture the FPP under examination.2 103 Instruction for control of impurities may also be included in the manufacture section

  • Selenium Compounds Are Federal Hazardous Air Pollutants and Were Identified As Toxic Air Contaminants in April 1993 Under AB 2728
    SELENIUM COMPOUNDS Selenium compounds are federal hazardous air pollutants and were identified as toxic air contaminants in April 1993 under AB 2728. CAS Registry Number of Selenium: 7782-49-2 Se Selenium monosulfide: 7446-34-6 SeS Molecular Formula of Selenium: Se Selenium monosulfide: SSe Elemental selenium exists in several allotropic forms. The amorphous form is either red in powder form, or black in vitreous form. The crystalline monoclinic prism form is deep red and the black crystalline hexagonal form (the most stable variety) is a lustrous metallic gray. Selenium is odorless and insoluble in water and alcohol, but soluble in chloroform, methylene iodide, benzene, quinoline, nitric acid, sulfuric acid, ether, carbon disulfide, aqueous potassium cyanide and potassium sulfate solutions (HSDB, 1991; Sax, 1989). Selenium possesses photovoltaic (converts radiant energy to electrical energy) and photoconductive (where electrical resistance decreases with increased illumination) properties. There are six isotopes (Merck, 1989). The properties of selenium compounds vary with the individual selenium compound. Selenium sulfide is the only selenium compound currently shown to be carcinogenic in animals. It is a bright orange powder which emits toxic fumes of selenium and sulfur oxides when heated to decomposition (Sax, 1989). It is soluble in benzene and carbon disulfide. Examples of Selenium Compounds Selenic acid Selenium dioxide Selenourea Seleninyl bis(dimethylamide) Selenium hexafluoride Selsun Seleninyl bromide Selenium monosulfide

The second section of the review is dedicated to structural analy- sis and is divided into 14 subsections, each focusing on one type of sulfur-contain- ing moiety. A concise graphical representation of each class features drugs that are organized on the basis of structural similarity, evolutionary relevance, and medical indication. This review ofers a unique and comprehensive overview of the struc- tural features of all sulfur-containing FDA-approved drugs to date.
