Identification A, FTIR : (EP, BP, USP) Matches with the standard pattern
Identification (JP) Matches with the standard pattern
Identification B, TLC : (EP, BP) The principal spot in the chromatogram obtained with test solution is similar in position and size to the principal spot in the chromatogram obtained with reference solution
Identification B (USP) It meets the requirements for specific rotation test
Identification C (USP) The retention time of the major peak of the sample solution corresponds to that of the standard solution, as obtained in the assay
Appearance of solution (EP, BP) 1% solution in 4 g/L solution of sodium hydroxide R is clear and colourless
