| Test Item | Common Test Methods | Method Overview |
|---|---|---|
| Appearance | Visual Inspection | Take an appropriate amount of sample and place it on a white background. Observe its color, appearance (usually white to off-white powder), and presence of foreign matter under natural or standard lighting conditions. |
| Identification | Infrared Spectrophotometry (IR) | Prepare a KBr pellet of the sample, record its infrared absorption spectrum, and compare with the reference spectrum of hydroxypropyl cellulose. Major characteristic peaks (e.g., C–O–C, –OH functional groups) should match. |
| Viscosity | Rotational Viscometer Method / Ubbelohde Viscometer Method | Prepare an aqueous solution of specified concentration (e.g., 2% w/v), and measure the dynamic or kinematic viscosity at a specified temperature (usually 20 °C) to characterize molecular weight and product specifications. |
| Loss on Drying | Loss on Drying Method | Weigh the sample into a pre-weighed weighing bottle, dry at 105 °C to constant weight, and calculate the percentage weight loss, which reflects the moisture and volatile content. |
| Residue on Ignition | High-Temperature Ignition Method | After charring the sample, ignite it in a muffle furnace at 700–800 °C until constant weight. Determine the residual inorganic impurities, usually reported as sulfate ash. |
| pH Value | pH Meter Method | Prepare an aqueous solution of specified concentration (e.g., 2% w/v), and measure its pH at room temperature using a calibrated pH meter. The typical range is 5.0–8.0. |
| Hydroxypropoxy Content | Gas Chromatography (GC) or Volumetric Method | Hydroxypropoxy groups are cleaved via alkaline catalysis to produce isopropanol, which is quantified by gas chromatography; or acetylated and titrated to determine the degree of hydroxypropyl substitution (typically 4–32%). |
| Heavy Metals | Thioacetamide Colorimetric Method or ICP-MS | Process the sample according to pharmacopoeia methods, add thioacetamide for color development, and compare with standard lead solution; or use Inductively Coupled Plasma-Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) for trace metal quantification. |
| Microbial Limits | Microbial Culture Method | Perform total aerobic microbial count, total combined mold and yeast count, and test for specified microorganisms (e.g., Escherichia coli, Salmonella) according to the Chinese Pharmacopoeia or relevant standards. |
| Solution Clarity and Color | Visual Turbidity/Color Comparison Method | Prepare a solution of specified concentration and compare it visually with standard turbidity or color reference solutions to assess clarity and absence of abnormal discoloration. |
