Abstract: | Yeastolates, triton X-100 (TX-100) and methotrexate (MTX) are common process-related impurities (PRI) in cell-based bioproduction of many active biopharmaceuticals. In this study, a reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) method coupled with ultraviolet (UV) detection was developed for simultaneous determination and quantitation of these impurities. The chromatographic separation was achieved using a Jupiter C4 column and analyses of yeastolates, TX-100 and MTX were monitored at 257, 280 and 302 nm, respectively. The method was further validated with respect to selectivity, linearity, limit of detection (LOD), limit of quantitation (LOQ), precision and accuracy. The limits of quantitation for yeastolates, TX-100 and MTX were determined to be 27 ppm, 10 ppm and 41 ppb, respectively. Finally, the suitability of the method for analyses of recombinant human hyaluronidase (rHuPH20) in-process (viral inactivation, QFF, PS, APB and CHT filtered, final viral filtrate) and final manufacturing materials was demonstrated, and trace levels of yeastolates, TX-100 and MTX were reliably measured except for three matrices early in the purification process in which TX-100 was not accurately determined due to interfering effects. |
