Dexamethasone EP Impurity K

Dexamethasone EP Impurity K is a related substance of the synthetic corticosteroid dexamethasone, a potent anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressant used in a wide range of injectable, oral and topical products. The impurity has the molecular formula C22H26O4 and a molecular weight of 354.44, and it is one of the defined peaks that related-substance testing of dexamethasone must be able to resolve and identify. Analytical groups therefore keep it on hand for method development and validation, for spiking experiments that establish resolution and selectivity, and for preparing calibration standards used in impurity quantitation and stability-indicating assays. It is a yellow solid; storage at -20°C ± 5°C is advised and shipping is carried out with ice packs. Available pack sizes span 5 mg, 10 mg, 15 mg, 20 mg, 25 mg, 30 mg, 50 mg, 70 mg, 100 mg, 110 mg, 120 mg, 150 mg, 180 mg and 225 mg. Contact the team to request a quote or the supporting documents.
