ABSTRACT
Purpose:
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the stability of angiotensin II in 0.9% sodium chloride for up to 5 days.Methods:
We prepared angiotensin II dilutions, by aseptically diluting 2.5 mg (1 mL) in 249 mL 0.9% sodium chloride creating a solution of 10 000 ng/mL. Admixtures were stored under refrigeration (5 ± 3°C). Stability of the dilution was assessed by preservation of clarity, consistency of pH, and retention of concentration. Solutions were sampled at times 0, 24, 48, 72, 96, 120 hours. Solutions were analyzed via High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC-UV) and Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Retention of concentration was set a priori at > 90% of initial concentration.Results:
Clarity, color, and pH at all sample time points remained constant. Both methods of analysis confirmed similar results. When stored under refrigeration, the concentration of angiotensin II solution remained above 90% of initial concentration throughout the entire sampling period.Conclusions:
Angiotensin II in 0.9% sodium chloride stored in infusion bags under refrigeration (5 ± 3°C) maintained at least 90% of their original concentrations for up to 5 days. Stability was also demonstrated based on turbidity, color, and pH assessment.
