Component mg/L = 0.995 * 10 mg * ((Icomp / Ncomp) / 50) * (Mwcomp / 116.1) * (1,000,000 / 175)
Where, wt of maleic acid (MA) = 10mg, Icomp = Integration of component resonance, Ncomp = number of
protons integrated, IMA/NMA = 50 (MA integral set as 100), Mwcomp = molecular weight of component
molecule, MW of MA = 116.1 amu, the 1,000,000/175 factor rectifies the volumetric component of the
calculation to allow mg/L to be calculated. 0.995 represents the 99.5% purity of the maleic acid standard.
Freeze Dried Sample: The following non-volatile components were always obtained on a 1000 ml freeze
dried sample: lactic acid, succinic acid, malic acid, citrate, various amino acids, glucose, malt and
carbohydrates, glycerol. The calculation utilized to quantify these components was:
Component mg/L = 0.995 * 10 mg * ((Icomp / Ncomp) / 50) * (Mwcomp/ 116.1) * (1,000,000 / 1,000)
• Various Summits are being held to encourage the use of qNMR in quality control, purity and
authentication analysis and standard test method development
*1st qNMR Summit - US Pharmacopoeial Convention – Rockville MD October 2016
* 2nd qNMR Summit – BAM, Berlin, Germany, March 15-17, 2017
