Impurity reference standards

Nicotine impurity standards

This page brings together 24 Nicotine related compounds that analytical teams use to identify, quantify and control impurities in the active ingredient and the finished dosage form. The range includes 5 pharmacopoeial impurities, 3 nitrosamines, 2 isotope-labelled standards, 1 metabolite or hydroxylated analogue and 2 degradation products.

Every standard comes with a certificate of analysis. Structure confirmation data, typically NMR, MS and chromatographic purity, is available on request. Laboratories use them to validate related-substance methods, set specification limits under ICH Q3A and Q3B, and identify unknown peaks in stability samples. For nitrosamine risk evaluation, the N-nitroso standards allow confirmatory LC-MS testing against the acceptable intake limits.

By impurity type

Pharmacopoeial5EP, USP, BP or JP named impurities

Questions

Nicotine impurities, answered

What Nicotine reference materials are available?
The catalogue currently lists 24 compounds for Nicotine, including 5 pharmacopoeial impurities, 3 nitrosamines, 2 isotope-labelled standards, 1 metabolite or hydroxylated analogue and 2 degradation products. Each product page shows the CAS number where one is assigned, the structure, formula and molecular weight.
What documents come with a Nicotine impurity standard?
A certificate of analysis travels with every lot. On request we share the characterisation set, usually 1H-NMR, mass spectrum, HPLC purity and IR, and for some materials TGA or water content. Ask for the data before ordering if your QA team needs to review it.
Can Zemixal make a Nicotine impurity that is not listed?
Often yes. Send the structure, name or CAS number with the quantity you need and our sourcing team checks custom synthesis options, usually from 10 mg up to gram scale, with a quoted lead time.
Do you supply Nicotine nitrosamine impurities?
Yes. 3 N-nitroso compounds are listed for Nicotine. They are used for confirmatory testing and method validation in line with ICH M7 and the nitrosamine guidance from the major regulators.
Are isotope-labelled Nicotine standards available?
Yes. 2 stable-isotope labelled compounds are listed, suitable as internal standards for LC-MS bioanalysis and trace impurity quantitation.
