1 DEFINITION

Minocycline Hydrochloride Extended-Release Tablets contain NLT 90.0% and NMT 110.0% of the labeled amount of minocycline (C₂₃H₂₇N₃O₇).

2 IDENTIFICATION

A. The retention time of the major peak of the Sample solution corresponds to that of the Standard solution, as obtained in the Assay.

B. The UV absorption spectrum of the major peak of the Sample solution and that of the Standard solution exhibit maxima and minima at the same wavelengths, as obtained in the Assay.

3.1 Procedure

Protect solutions containing minocycline from light.

Buffer: 3.5 g/L of tetrabutylammonium hydrogen sulfate, 2 g/L of anhydrous citric acid, and 6.8 g/L of monobasic potassium phosphate Adjust with 10 N sodium hydroxide to a pH of 7.0.
