General description

Pharmaceutical secondary standards for application in quality control, provide pharma laboratories and manufacturers with a convenient and cost-effective alternative to the preparation of in-house working standards.
Donepezil Hydrochloride is known as a selective, reversible inhibitor of acetylcholinesterase enzyme. It exhibits therapeutic effect by raising the acetylcholine concentrations and improving the cholinergic function. It can be used in the treatment of mild to moderate dementia of the Alzheimer′s type.

Application

Donepezil Hydrochloride may be used as a pharmaceutical reference standard for the determination of the analyte in pharmaceutical formulations and plasma samples by various chromatography techniques.
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.
