Analysis Note: | These secondary standards offer multi-traceability to the USP, EP (PhEur) and BP primary standards, where they are available. |
Application: | Progesterone may be used as a pharmaceutical reference standard for the determination of the analyte in pharmaceuticals and environmental samples by liquid chromatography (LC) and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS), liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS) and liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS), respectively. |
Application: | These Secondary Standards are qualified as Certified Reference Materials. These are suitable for use in several analytical applications including but not limited to pharma release testing, pharma method development for qualitative and quantitative analyses, food and beverage quality control testing, and other calibration requirements. |
Biochem/physiol Actions: | Induces maturation and secretory activity of the uterine endothelium; suppresses ovulation. Progesterone is implicated in the etiology of breast cancer. |
