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. Nevirapine is a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI), which belongs to the class of antiretroviral drugs. It acts by inhibiting the reverse transcriptase enzyme, thus suppressing the multiplication of HIV. It is highly effective against the advanced HIV disease.

Application

Nevirapine may be used as a pharmaceutical reference standard for the determination of the analyte in pharmaceutical formulations and fixed dose combinations by chromatography.
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

Nevirapine is an allosteric, non-nucleoside inhibitor of HIV reverse transcriptase (NNRTI). The Ki for inhibition of wild-type RT by Nevirapine is 200 nM.

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.
