Common mistakes in Analysis
Analysis
A error free analysis can be distinguished into following activities:
1. Selection of appropriate STP and SPEC
2. Use of proper reagent and standard
3. Appropriate mobile phase, standard and sample preparation
4. Successful instrument run
5. Appropriately data processing, calculation and reporting
STP & SPEC
Mistakes
1. Same product/material with
different code number
2. Similar product/material name
3. Misunderstanding of specification
requirements
Check carefully the
product/material and take
the appropriate STP and
SPEC
Check for
skip testing
Reagent and Standard
 Wrong reagent /prepared solution
 Different grade
 Different purity
 Different Hydration
 Expired reagent
 Incorrect standard
 Expired standard
Purity
Grade
Exp. Date
Strength
Potency
Form
Check the
STP well!!
Mobile phase
 Forget to adjust pH of buffer
 Use of wrong organic
 Wrong ratio of buffer and organic
 Mixing buffer and organic in measuring cylinder
 Improper mixing of buffer and organic
 Forget to degas
 Check STP for pH adjustment
 Check for appropriate organic
 Check and calculate for correct ratio of buffer and
organic
 Mix buffer and organic in a beaker or preparation
vessel measuring separately
 Mix properly following STP and degas properly before
use
Standard and Sample preparation
 Wrong sample amount
 Wrong glassware used
 Wrong dilution
 Wrong filter used
 Missing or skipping one or more steps
Check for
appropriate
sample
amount
Read the STP carefully
and arrange required
glassware before
starting standard and
sample preparation
Instrument run
 Selection of wrong instrument, e.g. UV
instead of PDA
 Selection of wrong instrument method
 Wrong runtime selection
 Wrong instrument parameter set
 Obsolete method used
 Detector life ended
Instrument not in state of use
 Instrument not in calibrated state
Instrument
run
Appropriate
Type
Calibration
Status
Detector
Life
Appropriate
method
Data processing, calculation and reporting
 Improper peak integration
 Wrong processing method
 Wrong dilution factor use for automatic calculation
 Wrong potency of standard used for result calculation
 Conversion factor missing
 Strength or factor of VS not used
 BRL, BDL, BQL not considered for impurity reporting
 Results not reported in CoA as per specification
 Check all chromatogram, baseline for prper peak
integration
 Check the processing method properly before
processing
 Do the calculation manually and check with the
software generated result for any mistakes
 Use appropriate potency, conversion factor (if any) for
standards
 Use appropriate strength/factor of VS
 Consider BRL, BDL and BQL for impurity reporting
 Report the result in CoA as per Specification
Hope that you will be able to reduce your mistake now!
