[Prednisolone reference standard (Control 911) of the National Institute of Hygienic Sciences].
Prednisolone was tested for preparation of the "Prednisolone Reference Standard (Control 911)". The quality of raw material was examined and compared with the previous Reference Standard (Control 872). Analytical data obtained were as follows: loss on drying, 0.10%; melting point, 233.2 degrees C (decomposition); optical rotation, [alpha]20D+98.77 degrees; UV spectrum, lambda max = 243nm; absorptivity, E1%1cm (243nm) = 413.5; IR spectrum, 1711, 1612, 1110, 888cm-1; one impurity was detected by thin-layer chromatography and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), respectively; assay, 100.1% by HPLC. Based on the above results, the raw material was authorized as the Japanese Pharmacopoeia Standard (Control 911).
