Information on the current non-availability of a reference standard

Ph. Eur. Somatropin/Desamidosomatropin resolution mixture CRS (Y0000711) is currently unavailable.

In order to overcome the temporary shortage of this CRS and until the replacement batch is made available, it is advised to prepare the system suitability resolution solution for the test of related proteins described in the monographs 0950 (Somatropin concentrated solution), 0951 (Somatropin) and 0952 (Somatropin for injection) by using the Ph. Eur. Somatropin CRS Batch 3 (Cat. No. S0947000).

See more information in the Note to users.

 

Content of the European Pharmacopoeia RS catalogue

The EDQM proposes more than 2900 Ph. Eur. RS, including a wide range of highly characterised chemical reference substances (CRS), herbal reference standards (HRS) and biological reference preparations (BRP), as well as reference spectra for the tests and assays to be carried out in accordance with the official methods prescribed in the European Pharmacopoeia. The Ph. Eur. RS catalogue is updated on a daily basis and gives access not only to all the Ph. Eur. RS, but also to:

  • Batch Validity Statements (BVSs) for each reference standard;

  • Safety Data Sheets and Safety Data Statements for hazardous biologicals;

  • leaflets (downloadable PDF).

For your convenience, the Ph. Eur. RS catalogue is published on a daily basis and can be downloaded in PDF format here, as well as in XML format here.
