An effective analytical method for quantification of NDMA using liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry was developed and validated. Key factors behind NDMA formation were identified, and protective measures were proposed to prevent contamination in metformin products. Comparison between two laboratories confirmed the reliability of the method.
An effective analytical method for the quantification of N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) using a liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry was developed and applied to a process optimization study of the production of metformin film coated tablets in order to identify the key factors behind the NDMA formation in metformin products. The method uses a linear gradient elution with mobile phases 0.1 % formic acid in water for chromatography and methanol for chromatography and a column Acquity UPLC HSS T3 1.8 mu m. The use of the tandem mass spectrometry in a positive ion mode with an atmospheric pressure chemical ionization allows for the use of an isotopically labelled internal standard and an external calibration standard. The method was validated according to the guidelines of International Council for Harmonization in terms of limit of detection and quantification, linearity, precision, accuracy and method selectivity. To further justify the effectiveness of the method, a comparison between two laboratories was performed using a linear regression testing. Both methods give comparable results. 469 samples of both metformin active pharmaceutical ingredient and film coated tablets were analysed and the key factors behind NDMA formation were identified. Hypotheses explaining the mechanism were formulated and confronted with measurements and scientific literature. Protective measures to prevent NDMA contamination in metformin products were drawn.
