QUIZ #4: cGMPs in the Pharmaceutical Laboratory
Part Two: USP Test Solutions, Reagents and Volumetric Solutions

Answer each of the following questions with a short response. Good luck!

  1. Where it is stated that you must prepare a solution "fresh," how often must you prepare this solution?
  2. Is it essential to prepare standard volumetric solutions at the desired theoretical concentrations?
  3. When is it necessary to perform a blank determination for a titration?
  4. What constitutes a blank solution?
  5. Is it acceptable to standardize a volumetric solution using another volumetric? If so, what are the requirements for the standardizing solution?
  6. TRUE or FALSE: Acetic, hydrochloric and sulfuric acids may be standardized against a sodium hydroxide solution that recently has been standardized against a certified primary standard.
  7. How should one generally interpret "recently" when relating to volumetric solutions?
  8. How long may a stable volumetric solution be used before it has to be either re-standardized or discarded?

How did you do? After you have taken the Quiz, request the answers via E-mail from accureg@regulatory.com. If you include your address, we'll send you a pocket book of the GMPs for Medical Devices or for finished Pharmaceuticals!
