1.0 Purpose 
 The purpose of this procedure is to define the method for the quantitation and/or identification
 of Salicin in raw materials and finished products using HPLC and UV/VIS spectrophotometry.
 2.0 Scope 
 This procedure applies to the quantification and identification of salicin in raw materials and
 finished products in the QC laboratory at Ion Labs. Salicin is a decent chromophore and was
 measured at 268, other wavelengths can be used to maximize signal to noise.
 3.0 Responsibility 
 
 3.1 It is the responsibility of QC Chemists to follow this procedure. 
 
 3.2 It is the responsibility of QC Laboratory Management to ensure that this procedure is
 
 being followed. 
 
 3.3 It is the responsibility of QC Laboratory and Analytical Development Management to
 keep this procedure aligned with current practices.

 7.0 Preparation of Mobile Phase, Diluent, Samples, and Standards 
 
 7.1 Mobile Phase A — 1% Acetic acid in H2O 
 
 Prepared by mixing 10mL glacial acetic acid with 990mL H20 (scale as necessary).
 
 7.2 Mobile Phase B — Acetonitrile 
 
 7.3. Diluent- 20% Methanol (aq) 
 
 Prepared by mixing 200mL methanol and 800mL H20 (scale as necessary).
 
 7.4 Standard Preparation 
 
 7.4.1 The linear range of the method is 0.4 mg/mL — 6.0 mg/mL. The final standard and
 sample preparations must be within the linear range. 
 
 Use the actual purity from the CofA or the standard certification for salicin
7.4.2 reference material for calculations. The stock standard preparation reflects 100%

 content for the analyte assayed.

 7.4.3 The standard is prepared by weighing no less than the minimum weight of the
 analytical balance, then bringing up to the final volume in an appropriate
 
 volumetric flask using Diluent then sonicating for 5 minutes.
 
 7.4.4 Dilutions are prepared using Diluent. Dilutions can be made using volumetric
 
 flasks or using 10mL, ImL, and 200uL variable pipettes. Specific standard
 concentrations will approximate the concentration expected to be found in the
 
 product being tested based on the sample dilution and calculated from the label.
 
 Dilutions can be prepared in HPLC vials. 
 
 7.5 Sample Preparation 
 
 tames For finished products, 10 or more dosage units can be pooled and ground by
 mortar and pestle as necessary. 
 
 1DZ Samples can be dissolved in Diluent at any volume starting from 50mL and any
 
 weight greater than the minimum weight of the analytical balance.
 
 7.5.3 The sample is suspended in the final volume and put in the sonicator bath for at
 least 10 minutes with occasional shaking to ensure large chunks are dispersed.
 
 7.5.4 Before injection, insoluble matter should be removed via filtration using a 0.45yum
 nylon syringe filter. Discard at least 0.5mL of filtrate before collecting a portion
 
 for analysis. Dilute filtrate as needed then add ImL of the final dilution to an
 HPLC vial for analysis. 
 
 7.5.4.1 Alternatively, samples and standards can also be centrifuged at 6,000
 
 RPM for at least 200 seconds in an Eppendorf centrifuge to pellet
 insoluble matter. 
 
 7.5.5 For raw materials or finished products being analyzed for the first time using this
 method, in-process verification is required to demonstrate spectral purity and
 extraction efficiency before the method can be implemented.
