Technical Details & Test Data
- Assay Procedure
ASSAY
- PROCEDURE
Sample: 150 mg of Glycine
Blank: 100 mL of glacial acetic acid- Titrimetric system
- Mode: Direct titration
- Titrant: 0.1 N perchloric acid VS
- Endpoint detection: Visual
- Analysis: Dissolve the Sample in 100 mL of glacial acetic acid, and add 1 drop of crystal violet TS. Titrate with the Titrant to a green endpoint. Perform the Blank determination.
- Calculate the percentage of glycine (C2H5NO2) in the Sample taken:
Result = {[(Vs-VB) × N ×F]/W} ×100
Vs= Titrant volume consumed by the Sample (mL)
VB= Titrant volume consumed by the Blank (mL)
N= actual normality of the Titrant (mEq/mL)
F= equivalency factor, 75.07 mg/mEq
W= Sample weight (mg)- Acceptance criteria: 98.5%-101.5% on the dried basis
