Recently, quantitative NMR (qNMR), especially 1H-qNMR, has been widely used to determine the absolute quantitative value of organic molecules. We previously reported an optimal and reproducible sample preparation method for 1H-qNMR. In the present study, we focused on a 31P-qNMR absolute determination method. An organophosphorus compound, cyclophosphamide hydrate (CP), listed in the Japanese Pharmacopeia 17th edition was selected as the target compound, and the 31P-qNMR and 1H-qNMR results were compared under three conditions with potassium dihydrogen phosphate (KH2PO4) or O-phosphorylethanolamine (PEA) as the reference standard for 31P-qNMR and sodium 4,4-dimethyl-4-silapentanesulfonate-d6 (DSS-d6) as the standard for 1H-qNMR. Condition 1: separate sample containing CP and KH2PO4 for 31P-qNMR or CP and DSS-d6 for 1H-qNMR. Condition 2: mixed sample containing CP, DSS-d6, and KH2PO4. Condition 3: mixed sample containing CP, DSS-d6, and PEA. As conditions 1 and 3 provided good results, validation studies at multiple laboratories were further conducted. The purities of CP determined under condition 1 by 1H-qNMR at 11 laboratories and 31P-qNMR at 10 laboratories were 99.76 ± 0.43 and 99.75 ± 0.53%, respectively, and those determined under condition 3 at five laboratories were 99.66 ± 0.08 and 99.61 ± 0.53%, respectively. These data suggested that the CP purities determined by 31P-qNMR are in good agreement with those determined by the established 1H-qNMR method. Since the 31P-qNMR signals are less complicated than the 1H-qNMR signals, 31P-qNMR would be useful for the absolute quantification of compounds that do not have a simple and separate 1H-qNMR signal, such as a singlet or doublet, although further investigation with other compounds is needed.

Quantitative NMR (qNMR) is applied to determine the absolute quantitative value of analytical standards for HPLC-based quantification. We have previously reported the optimal and reproducible sample preparation method for qNMR of hygroscopic reagents, such as saikosaponin a, which is used as an analytical standard in the assay of crude drug section of Japanese Pharmacopoeia (JP). In this study, we examined the absolute purity determination of a hygroscopic substance, indocyanine green (ICG), listed in the Japanese Pharmaceutical Codex 2002, using qNMR for standardization by focusing on the adaptation of ICG to JP. The purity of ICG, as an official non-Pharmacopoeial reference standard (non-PRS), had high variation (86.12 ± 2.70%) when preparing qNMR samples under non-controlled humidity (a conventional method). Additionally, residual ethanol (0.26 ± 0.11%) was observed in the non-PRS ICG. Next, the purity of non-PRS ICG was determined via qNMR when preparing samples under controlled humidity using a saturated sodium bromide solution. The purity was 84.19 ± 0.47% with a lower variation than that under non-controlled humidity. Moreover, ethanol signal almost disappeared. We estimated that residual ethanol in non-PRS ICG was replaced with water under controlled humidity. Subsequently, qNMR analysis was performed when preparing samples under controlled humidity in a constant temperature and humidity box. It showed excellent results with the lowest variation (82.26 ± 0.19%). As the use of a constant temperature and humidity box resulted in the lowest variability, it is recommended to use the control box if the reference ICG standard is needed for JP assays.

β-Conglycinin (β-CG), a major soy protein, has been associated with the reduction of body fat and triglycerides in the blood. Quantitation of the α, α¢, and β subunits in β-CG is desirable to establish the functional properties of β-CG in soybean. Therefore, in this study, we used the Jess System, a capillary electrophoresis-based immunoassay system, for quantifying β-CG in soybean foods. The validity of this method was confirmed using soybeans and processed soy milk. The within-laboratory reproducibility of the total β-CG amount was < 15 %, and its trueness was > 80 %. The β-CG content in the commercially available soybeans, Kori-tofu, soy milk, soy yogurt, Okara powder, and soy meat was determined to be 40.3–148.5, 65.2–97.2, 6.1–7.8, 3.5, 18.0, and 57.5 mg/g, respectively. For the first time in the literature, this method enables the quantitation of individual subunits of β-CG, despite the large variation in the amount of each subunit.
