Development and validation of an
HPLC method to analyze ibuprofen and
impurities according to the European
Pharmacopoeia

Abstract
This Application Note describes the development of a fast, accurate, and reproducible method to analyze ibuprofen and related impurities according to European Pharmacopoeia (EP) regulations1, using an Agilent 1120 Compact LC. The experiments described in this Application Note include determination of precision of areas and reten- tion times, as well as chromatographic parameters like resolution and signal-to-noise ratios. The experiments prove precise results from a system that was optimized for everyday productivity, and they fulfill Introduction
