Popis: A metrological approach to determination of the chromatographic purity of obidoxime chloride and the corresponding obidoxime chloride reference material (RM) with a certified chromatographic purity value have been developed. This value was defined as the ratio of the sum of peak areas of obidoxime chloride isomers to the total peak area of detected substances including impurities (%) under specified HPLC–UV conditions. The RM homogeneity and stability were studied using HPLC with UV detection and evaluated as satisfactory. The certified value calculated from the results of an interlaboratory trial was equal to 99.9% with the expanded uncertainty of 0.6% at the level of confidence 0.95 and the coverage factor 2. The RM certified value, like other results of chromatographic purity determination traceable to the reference measurement procedure, is not traceable directly to the SI mole. However, the results are comparable in metrologically traceable environments, i.e. when relevant measuring laboratory instruments are calibrated with traceability chains to the corresponding SI units. Therefore, the RM can be used as a measurement standard (calibrator) for analytical instruments and as a control sample for quality control of HPLC obidoxime chloride assay results.
