How Vanguard tests Bisoprolol fumarate

Method for the $250 identity, purity and quantity test: HPLC-UV purity and assay, LC-MS identity, against a reference standard, with results in 3 to 5 business days.

The USP monograph covers identity by infrared spectroscopy and HPLC retention time, assay by HPLC, chromatographic purity by HPLC, fumaric acid content by potentiometric titration, specific rotation, water content, and residue on ignition. Full testing to the USP Bisoprolol Fumarate monograph is available and quoted.

What's reported

  • Purity, as percent of total peak area
  • Quantity, against the label claim
  • Identity, reported as match or no match against the reference standard
  • With monograph testing (quoted): the monograph’s tests against its limits

Questions about Bisoprolol fumarate testing

Is the $250 test the same as USP monograph testing?

No. The $250 test covers identity, purity and quantity by HPLC-UV for purity and quantity and LC-MS for identity. Full testing to the USP Bisoprolol Fumarate monograph is available and quoted.

Why is the fumarate formula written with two bisoprolol molecules?

Bisoprolol fumarate is a 2:1 salt, with two bisoprolol molecules per fumaric acid. This matters when results are converted between the salt and bisoprolol base.

Is the fumaric acid measured?

The USP monograph measures fumaric acid by titration to confirm the salt ratio. The $250 test measures bisoprolol by HPLC, and fumarate content can be added and quoted.

Is bisoprolol a racemate?

Yes, bisoprolol is supplied as a racemic mixture. The standard HPLC test reports total bisoprolol; separating the enantiomers needs a chiral method, which is quoted separately.
