title: Development and validation of a capillary zone electrophoresis method for assessment of recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor in pharmaceutical formulations and its correlation with liquid chromatography methods and bioassay.
abstract: A capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) method was validated for the analysis of recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (rhG-CSF) and performed on a fused-silica capillary, with detection at 195 nm. The background electrolyte solution consisted of 50 mM sodium tetraborate solution at pH 9. The method was linear in the concentration range of 1-200 microg/mL and the limit of quantitation (LOQ) was 1 microg/mL, with acceptable validation parameters. The method was applied for the analysis of pharmaceutical formulations, and the results were correlated to the reversed-phase HPLC method (RP-HPLC), size-exclusion HPLC method (SE-HPLC) and in vitro bioassay method.
