The ratio of peak height of dermal sulfate to peak height of heparin and dermal sulfate in the chromatogram of reference solution (3) shall not be less than 1.3, and the retention time of the main peak of test solution in the chromatogram of test solution shall be consistent with that of control solution (3), and the relative deviation of retention time shall not exceed 5.0% solutions(3) |
The retention time of the major peak of the Sample solution corresponds to that of the Standard solution. |
peak-to-valley ratio: minimum 1.3,the principal peak in the chromatogram obtained with test solution (a) is similar in retention time and shape to the principal peak in the chromatogram obtained with reference solution (c) |
