Manufacturing Quality Control of 3-hydroxybutyric acid
| Detection Item | Common Analytical Method | Method Overview |
|---|---|---|
| Assay (Purity) | Acid-Base Titration with NaOH | Quantifies 3-hydroxybutyric acid by neutralization with standardized sodium hydroxide solution using phenolphthalein or potentiometric endpoint detection. |
| Water Content | Karl Fischer Titration | Determines water content based on stoichiometric reaction of iodine with water in a methanol-based reagent system. |
| Specific Optical Rotation | Polarimetry | Measures the angle of rotation of plane-polarized light caused by chiral 3-hydroxybutyric acid in solution. |
| Residue on Ignition | Gravimetric Analysis | Determines non-volatile inorganic residue after high-temperature ashing of sample at 500-600 C. |
| Heavy Metals | Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS) | Quantifies total heavy metals (e.g., Pb, Cd, Hg) after acid digestion by measuring atomic absorption at element-specific wavelengths. |
| Chloride Impurity | Ion Chromatography (IC) | Separates and quantifies chloride ions using anion-exchange column and conductivity detection. |
| Sulfate Impurity | Barium Sulfate Gravimetry | Precipitates sulfate as BaSO4 under acidic conditions and determines mass after filtration and drying. |
| Related Substances | High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) | Separates and quantifies structurally related impurities (e.g., acetoacetic acid, butyric acid) using reversed-phase C18 column and UV detection. |
| pH (1% aqueous solution) | Potentiometric pH Measurement | Measures hydrogen ion activity in a standardized aqueous solution using calibrated glass electrode. |
| Appearance | Visual Inspection | Assesses physical state, color, and clarity against established reference standards under controlled lighting. |
| Melting Point | Capillary Melting Point Determination | Determines temperature range at which solid sample transitions to liquid using calibrated melting point apparatus. |
| Residual Solvents | Gas Chromatography (GC) with FID | Identifies and quantifies volatile organic solvents (e.g., methanol, ethyl acetate) using capillary column and flame ionization detection. |
