General description

Phenoxybenzamine Hydrochloride is an important drug belonging to the class of β-chloroethylamine drugs. It functions as an α-blocker by binding to α-adrenoreceptors, located on vascular smooth muscles and stops the influence of sympathetic nerves on blood vessels. It is widely used in the treatment of hypertension, benign prostatic hyperplasia and hypoplastic left heart syndrome.
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.

Application

Phenoxybenzamine Hydrochloride may be used as a pharmaceutical reference standard in the determination of the analyte in pharmaceutical formulations by chromatographic and chemiluminescence 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.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Calmodulin antagonist; α-adrenoceptor antagonist.

Analysis Note

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

Other Notes

This Certified Reference Material (CRM) is produced and certified in accordance with ISO 17034 and ISO/IEC 17025. All information regarding the use of this CRM can be found on the certificate of analysis.
