Separation of Pyrilamine with a Simple Isocratic Method

Pyrilamine is a challenging compound to analyze with HPLC because it contains several amine groups that can contribute to peak tailing. In this Method, an excellent Peak shape is obtained for Pyrilamine with a simple isocratic Mobile Phase. Data is shown for two lots of Columns in order to demonstrate the robustness and precision of this Method.

The Method is rapid, robust, and suitable for routine Assay of Pyrilamine formulations. The data shown here used a USP reference standard of Pyrilamine Maleate but the conditions can be applied to a variety of formulation extracts.
