| Test Item | Common Test Method | Method Overview |
|---|---|---|
| Content Determination | High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) | A reversed-phase C18 column is used, with water-acetonitrile or water-methanol as the mobile phase in gradient elution. The peak area of Rebaudioside A is detected by a UV detector (usually at around 210 nm), and quantified by external or internal standard method. This method offers high sensitivity, good repeatability and accuracy, and is the most commonly used method in pharmacopoeias and industry standards. |
| Purity Analysis | High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) | Similar to content determination, purity is calculated based on the percentage of the main peak area relative to the total peak area. It can simultaneously detect other steviol glycoside impurities (e.g., Rebaudioside D, M, etc.) and evaluate the overall sample purity. |
| Related Substances / Impurity Check | High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) | Chromatographic conditions with high resolution are used to identify and quantify possible related impurities (e.g., other steviol glycosides, degradation products). Impurity limits are typically set (e.g., individual impurity ≤1.0%, total impurities ≤2.0%). |
| Residual Solvents | Gas Chromatography (GC) | According to ICH Q3C guidelines, headspace injection gas chromatography (HS-GC) is used to detect residual organic solvents possibly present from the manufacturing process (e.g., methanol, ethanol, acetone), with FID detector for quantification. |
| Loss on Drying | Gravimetric Method after Drying | The sample is dried at 105°C to constant weight, and the percentage of mass loss is measured. This test controls moisture and volatile components, with a typical specification of ≤5.0%. |
| Residue on Ignition | High-Temperature Ashing Method | After ignition at high temperature (about 600–800°C), the remaining inorganic residue is weighed to control inorganic impurities, typically with a requirement of ≤0.1%. |
| Heavy Metals | Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS) or Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) | After sample digestion, AAS or the more sensitive ICP-MS is used to determine the content of heavy metals such as lead, arsenic, cadmium, and mercury, meeting food safety or pharmaceutical excipient limit requirements (e.g., total heavy metals ≤10 ppm). |
| Microbial Limits | Microbial Culture Method | Total aerobic microbial count, mold and yeast counts, and controlled organisms (e.g., Escherichia coli, Salmonella) are tested according to the Chinese Pharmacopoeia or USP general chapters to ensure microbial safety of the product. |
| Specific Optical Rotation | Polarimetry | A solution of defined concentration is prepared, and the optical rotation is measured under specified temperature and wavelength (usually the sodium D line, 589 nm). The specific optical rotation is then calculated for identification and assessment of optical purity. |
| Identification Test | Thin-Layer Chromatography (TLC) or Infrared Spectroscopy (IR) | TLC: Comparison of Rf values with reference standards after development on a silica gel plate and visualization. IR: Determination of characteristic functional group absorption peaks (e.g., hydroxyl, glycosidic bond), used for preliminary identification of Rebaudioside A. |
