| Test Item | Common Testing Methods | Method Overview |
|---|---|---|
| Purity and Content Determination | Gas Chromatography (GC) | Separation is performed using a capillary column, with quantification via a flame ionization detector (FID), using internal or external standard methods. Suitable for high-sensitivity detection of volatile organic acids. |
| Purity and Content Determination | High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) | A C18 reversed-phase column is used with mobile phases such as methanol/water or acetonitrile/water (containing a small amount of acid, e.g., phosphoric acid). Detection is performed using a UV detector or evaporative light scattering detector (ELSD), suitable for non-volatile or thermally unstable samples. |
| Acidity (pH or Total Acidity) | Acid-Base Titration | The sample aqueous solution is titrated with a standardized sodium hydroxide solution, using phenolphthalein as an indicator, to determine total acidity. Used for rapid assessment of the total amount of acidic components. |
| Impurity Profile Analysis | Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) | After separation by GC, MS is used for structural identification, enabling detection of trace structurally similar impurities (e.g., 2-methylpentanoic acid, n-hexanoic acid). Suitable for qualitative and semi-quantitative impurity analysis. |
| Water Content | Karl Fischer Titration | Based on the quantitative reaction of water with iodine and sulfur dioxide in the presence of pyridine and methanol, this method accurately measures trace amounts of water in samples, ideal for quality control of moisture-sensitive raw materials. |
| Appearance and Physical Properties | Visual Inspection + Melting/Boiling Point Determination | Observe color, transparency, and presence of precipitates; measure boiling point using a boiling point apparatus (boiling point of 3-methylpentanoic acid is approximately 175–178°C) for preliminary identification and purity assessment. |
| Heavy Metal Residues | Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS) or ICP-MS | After sample digestion, concentrations of heavy metals such as lead, cadmium, mercury, and arsenic are determined, ensuring compliance with pharmacopeial or food/chemical industry standards. |
| Inorganic Impurities (e.g., Chlorides, Sulfates) | Ion Chromatography (IC) or Colorimetric Method | Anions are separated via ion chromatography, or detected using colorimetric methods (e.g., chlorides detected by silver nitrate precipitation), to ensure impurity levels are within acceptable limits. |
