Analysis Note

These secondary standards offer multi-traceability to the USP, EP (PhEur) and BP primary standards, where they are available.

Application

These Secondary Standards are qualified as Certified Reference Materials. These are suitable for use in several analytical applications including but not limited to pharma release testing, pharma method development for qualitative and quantitative analyses, food and beverage quality control testing, and other calibration requirements.

Terbinafine hydrochloride may be used as a pharmaceutical reference standard for the determination of the analyte in drug dosage forms by UV spectrophotometry and high-performance thin layer chromatography (HPTLC).

Biochem/physiol Actions

Mode of Action: Inhibits squalene epoxidase, preventing biosynthesis of ergosterol.Antimicrobial spectrum: Antifungal and antimycotic. Fungicidal against dermatopytes and some yeasts; fungistatic against Candida albicans.

General description

Certified pharmaceutical secondary standards for application in quality control provide pharma laboratories and manufacturers with a convenient and cost-effective alternative to pharmacopeia primary standards. Terbinafine hydrochloride is an antifungal drug. Its mode of action involves the inhibition of squalene epoxidase enzyme, an essential component of fungal cell systems involved in ergosterol biosynthesis.

Allylamine derivative.
