1.1 GENERAL STATEMENTS 概述
The General Notices apply to all monographs and other texts of the European Pharmacopoeia. 凡例的内容适用于各论和欧洲药典中的其它章节。
The official texts of the European Pharmacopoeia are published in English and French. Translations in other languages may be prepared by the signatory States of the European Pharmacopoeia Convention. In case of doubt or dispute, the English and French versions are alone authoritative.
欧洲药典以英语和法语形式发行word如何删除空白页,欧洲药典委员会的签署国可将药典内容译成其它语言,但若发生争议,应以英语和法语版为权威。
In the texts of the European Pharmacopoeia, the word ‘Pharmacopoeia’ without qualification means the European Pharmacopoeia. The official abbreviation Ph. Eur. may be used to indicate the European Pharmacopoeia.
在欧洲药典中,如无特殊规定,“药典”是指欧洲药典,官方缩写 Ph. Eur.也指欧洲药典。
The use of the title or the subtitle of a monograph implies that the article complies with the requirements of the relevant monograph. Such references to monographs in the texts of the Pharmacopoeia are shown using the monograph title and reference number in italics.
文章中如果引用word如何删除空白页了各论中的标题和副标题意味着文章内容符合相关各论的要求。文章参考药典中各论内容时,以斜体的各论题目或相关数字表示。
A preparation must comply throughout its period of validity; a distinct period of validity and/or specifications for opened or broached containers may be decided by the competent authority. The subject of any other monograph must comply throughout its period of use. The period of validity that is assigned to any given article and the time from which that period is to be calculated are decided by the competent authority in light of experimental results of stability studies.
展开全文
制剂在有效期内必须性质稳定,明确的有效期或说明书应由权力机构批准。任何各论的物质也必须服从其使用期限。任何药品的有效期和有效期的计算由权力机构经稳定性研究的试验结果决定。
Unless otherwise indicated in the General Notices or in the monographs, statements in monographs constitute mandatory requirements. General chapters become mandatory when referred to in a monograph, unless such reference is made in a way that indicates that it is not the intention to make the text referred to mandatory but rather to cite it for information.
除凡例和各论中另有说明,各论中的说明为强制要求;除了特定的引用信息,如果各论引用总论中内容时,该总论要求为法定要求。
The active substances, excipients, pharmaceutical preparations and other articles described in the monographs are intended for human and veterinary use (unless explicitly restricted to one of these uses). An article is not of Pharmacopoeia quality unless it complies with all the requirements stated in the monograph. This does not imply that performance of all the tests in a monograph is necessarily a prerequisite for a manufacturer in assessing compliance with the Pharmacopoeia before release of a product. The manufacturer may obtain assurance that a product is of Pharmacopoeia quality from data derived, for example, from validation studies of the manufacturing process and from in-process controls. Parametric release in circumstances deemed appropriate by the competent authority is thus not precluded by the need to comply with the Pharmacopoeia.
各论中描述的活性物质,辅料,药物制剂和其它项目都是人用和兽用的(除非明确限制不可使用)。药品项目必须符合各论的要求,否则不符合药典质量。但并不要求产品放行前,生产商要做各论中的每项试验以满足药典要求。生产商可通过原始数据,例如生产过程验证,和中间体控制,确保药品是否符合药典要求。公布的环境参数,权力机构可适当采信,但不排除故意满足药典要求的可能。
The tests and assays described are the official methods upon which the standards of the Pharmacopoeia are based. With the agreement of the competent authority, alternative methods of analysis may be used for control purposes, provided that the methods used enable an unequivocal decision to be made as to whether compliance with the standards of the monographs would be achieved if the official methods were used. In the event of doubt or dispute, the methods of analysis of the Pharmacopoeia are alone authoritative.
检测和试验方法应基于药典标准的官方方法。经权利机构允许可采用其它替代的分析方法以达到控制目的,并证明该方法是否能达到各论各标准。若出现争论或异议,应以药典方法为准。
Certain materials that are the subject of a pharmacopoeial monograph may exist in different grades suitable for different purposes. Unless otherwise indicated in the monograph, the requirements apply to all grades of the material. In some monographs, particularly those on excipients, a list of functionality-related characteristics that are relevant to the use of the substance may be appended to the monograph for information. Test methods for determination of one or more of these characteristics may be given, also for information.
药典各论中的某些物质有多个等级可满足各种需要,除各论中另有说明,要求适用于各等级。在一些各论中,特别是辅料,一系列相关的功能特性都有介绍,其中给出了一些特性的检测方法。
Quality systems. The quality standards represented by monographs are valid only where the articles in question are produced within the framework of a suitable quality system.
质量体系word如何删除空白页:在适宜的质量体系架构下,产生有疑问的项目时,应以各论中的质量标准为法定标准。
General monographs. Substances and preparations that are the subject of an individual monograph are also required to comply with relevant, applicable general monographs. Cross-references to applicable general monographs are not normally given in individualmonographs.
通则:各论中介绍的药物和制剂也应符合通则中的相关要求。交叉引用的通则在各论中不特别指出。
General monographs apply to all substances and preparations within the scope of the Definition section of the general monograph, except where a preamble limits the application, for example to substances and preparations that are the subject of a monograph of the Pharmacopoeia
除非限定了适用条件,如规定适用于药典各论中的物质,通则的内容适用于各论定义范围内的所有药物和制剂。
General monographs on dosage forms apply to all preparations of the type defined. The requirements are not necessarily comprehensive for a given specific preparation and requirements additional to those prescribed in the general monograph may be imposed by the competent authority.
通则中介绍的剂量形式适用于典型定义的所有制剂。对于特殊给药制剂的规定并不全面,其在各论中有增加的要求,这些要求也是权力机构强制实施的。
General monographs and individual monographs are complementary. If the provisions of a general monograph do not apply to a particular product, this is expressly stated in the individual monograph.
通则和各论是互补的。如果通则不适合某些特殊产品,那么在各论中有特别规定。
Validation of pharmacopoeial methods. The test methods given in monographs and general
chapters have been validated in accordance with accepted scientific practice and current
recommendations on analytical validation. Unless otherwise stated in the monograph or general chapter, validation of the test methods by the analyst is not required.
药典方法确认:各论和通则中的检测方法已经根据适宜的科学实验和通行的分析验证确认。除各论和通则中另有规定外,药典中的分析方法不需要验证。
Implementation of pharmacopoeial methods. When implementing a pharmacopoeial method, the
user must assess whether and to what extent the suitability of the method under the actual
conditions of use needs to be demonstrated according to relevant monographs, general chapters
and quality systems.

The expression ‘unless otherwise justified and authorised’ means that the requirements have to
be met, unless the competent authority authorises a modification or an exemption where justified in a particular case.
“除证明和授权”是指该要求必须遵守,除非特殊情况下权力机构授权减免。
Statements containing the word ‘should’ are informative or advisory.
陈述中出现“应该(should)”是指此段描述作为信息提供或建议。
In certain monographs or other texts, the terms ‘suitable’ and ‘appropriate’ are used to describe a reagent, micro-organism, test method etc.; if criteria for
suitability are not described in the monograph, suitability is demonstrated to the satisfaction of the competent authority.
在某些各论或文章中出现了“合适的”和“适当的”用于描述一种试剂、微生物、检测方法等;若各论中没有介绍适用性标准,适用性的论述应符合权力机构的要求。

1.3 GENERAL CHAPTERS
总论
Containers. Materials used for containers are described in general chapter 3.1. General names used for materials, particularly plastic materials, each cover a range of products varying not only in the properties of the principal constituent but also in the additives used. The test methods and limits for materials depend on the formulation and are therefore applicable only for materials whose formulation is covered by the preamble to the specification. The use of
materials with different formulations, and the test methods and limits applied to them, are subject to agreement by the competent authority.
容器:用于制作包材的原料在总论3.1中有描述。“原料”作为统称,特别是塑料材质,每种产品都包含一系列不同主要成分和添加物。原料的测试方法和限度依赖于它的配方,所以说明书的序言应包含适宜的原料配方。配方不同的原料检测方法不同,检测方法应符合权力机构的规定。
The specifications for containers in general chapter 3.2 have been developed for general application to containers of the stated category, but in view of the wide variety of containers available and possible new developments, the publication of a specification does not exclude the use, in justified
circumstances, of containers that comply with other specifications, subject to agreement by the competent authority.
总论3.2中描述的包材规格适用于一般的分类,但考虑到包材规格的可变性,只要满足权力机构的要求,其它规格也可使用。
Reference may be made within the monographs of the Pharmacopoeia to the definitions and specifications for containers provided in chapter 3.2. Containers. The general monographs for pharmaceutical dosage forms may, under the heading Definition/Production, require the use of certain types of container certain other monographs may, under the heading Storage, indicate the type of container that is recommended for use.
药典各论中使用的包材可选用总论3.2中介绍的类型。各论中药物剂量形式中,在“定义/产品”项下可能规定使用的包材规格;有些各论中会在“贮藏”项下指出建议使用的包材规格。

DEFINITION 定义
Statements under the heading Definition constitute an official definition of the substance, preparation or other article that is the subject of the monograph.
在“定义”项下的说明是物料、制剂、或各论其他部分文字的官方释义。
Limits of content. Where limits of content are prescribed, they are those determined by the method described under Assay.
含量:有含量规定时,由分析方法下的描述决定。
Herbal drugs. In monographs on herbal drugs, the definition indicates whether the subject of the monograph is, for example, the whole drug or the drug in powdered form. Where a monograph applies to the drug in several states, for example both to the whole drug and the drug in powdered form, the definition states this.
中药:中药的各论中,在“定义”部分而非正文部分,药物是以完整药材或粉末形式进行描述的,或是药材和粉末两种形式都有描述。 P
RODUCTION 生产
Statements under the heading Production draw attention to particular aspects of themanufacturing process but are not necessarily comprehensive. They constitute mandatory requirements for manufacturers, unless otherwise stated. They may relate, for example, to source materials; to the manufacturing process itself and its validation and control; to in-process testing; or to testing that is to be carried out by the manufacturer on the final article, either on selected batches or on each batch prior to release. These statements cannot necessarily be verified on a sample of the final article by an independent analyst. The competent authority may establish that the instructions have been followed, for example, by examination of data received from the manufacturer, by inspection of manufacture or by testing appropriate samples.
在“生产”项下的描述中,对生产过程中有特殊要求的有提出注意,但不包括必要的普遍要求。除非另有规定,对于生产商来说这些描述是强制性的规定。例如,涉及到原料、生产过程、验证和控制、中间体测试、由生产者参与的最终实验、以及批次的选择或优先放行批次的选择。这些描述不需要通过单独的分析最终产物样品来证实。主管部门会建立相应的规定,比如检查生产商提供的数据,审查生产商或检测相应的样品。
The absence of a Production section does not imply that attention to features such as those referred to above is not required.
“生产”项下未描述的部分并不意味着对相关特性不做要求。如上面提到的那些是必须的。
Choice of vaccine strain, Choice of vaccine composition. The Production section of a monograph may define the characteristics of a vaccine strain or vaccine composition. Unless otherwise stated, test methods given for verification of these characteristics are provided for information as examples of suitable methods. Subject to approval by the competent authority, other test methods may be used without validation against the method shown in the monograph.
疫苗株和疫苗成分的选择:各论中“生产”项下的说明也适用于疫苗株和疫苗成分的特性。除另有规定外,验证这些特性的检验方法需要提供适合的参考信息。通过主管部门批准后,其他检测方法就不需要验证,和各论中的方法进行比对即可。
POTENTIAL ADULTERATION
潜在掺假
Due to the increasing number of fraudulent activities and cases of adulteration, information may be made available to Ph. Eur. users to help detect adulterated materials (i.e. active substances, excipients, intermediate products, bulk products and finished products).
由于欺骗事件和掺假的情况越来越多,用户可以帮助检测掺假的物料(即活性物质,辅料,中间产品,散装产品和成品)并把信息提供给EP。
To this purpose, a method for the detection of potential adulterants and relevant limits, together with a reminder that all stages of production and sourcing are subjected to a suitable quality system, may be included in this section of monographs on substances for which an incident has occurred or that present a risk of deliberate contamination. The frequency of testing by manufacturers or by users (e.g. manufacturers of intermediate products, bulk products and finished products, where relevant) depends on a risk assessment, taking into account the level of knowledge of the whole supply chain and national requirements.
为了达到这个目的,用一个检测潜在参杂物和相关限度的方法提醒与整个生产阶段和采购接受合适的质量系统,可能包括专著中已经发生或存在故意污染的物质。制造商或使用者(例如中间产品、散装产品和成品的制造商,在相关处)测试的频率取决于评估风险,同时考虑到整个供应链的知识水平和国家需求。
This section constitutes requirements for the whole supply chain, from manufacturers to users (e.g. manufacturers of intermediate products, bulk products and finished products, where relevant). The absence of this section does not imply that attention to features such as those referred to above is not required.
这章节整个供应链的要求从生产商到用户(如制造商中间产品,散装产品和成品,相关情况)构成。没有描述的部分的并不意味着对相关特征不要求,如上面提到的那些是必需的。
CHARACTERS
性质
The statements under the heading Characters are not to be interpreted in a strict sense and are not requirements.
在“性质”项下的描述无严格意义上的解释和要求。
Solubility. In statements of solubility in the Characters section, the terms used have the following significance, referred to a temperature between 15 ℃ and 25 ℃.
溶解度:“性质“项下对于溶解度的描述包括以下几种定义,且温度要控制在15℃~25℃。
The term ‘partly soluble’ is used to describe a mixture where only some of the components dissolve. The term ‘miscible’ is used to describe a liquid that is miscible in all proportions with the stated solvent.
“部分溶解”是指混合物中部分成分溶解。“混溶”是指液体与指定溶剂可以任意比例互溶。
IDENTIFICATION
鉴别
Scope. The tests given in the Identification section are not designed to give a full confirmation of the chemical structure or composition of the product; they are intended to give confirmation, with an acceptable degree of assurance, that the article conforms to the deion on the label.
范围:鉴别项下的试验不能完全确认化学结构或药品成分;在确保认可的情况下,这些试验可用来确认标签的描述。
First and second identifications. Certain monographs have subdivisions entitled ‘First identification’ and ‘Second identification’. The test or tests that constitute the ‘First identification’ may be used in all circumstances. The test or tests that constitute the ‘Second identification’ may be used in pharmacies provided it can be demonstrated that the substance or preparation is fully traceable to a batch certified to comply with all the other requirements of the monograph.
第一和第二鉴别:某些各论中细分出了“第一鉴别”和”“第二鉴别”。“第一鉴别”的试验在任何情况下都可采用。若该产品完全可以追溯,且可以证明该产品完全符合各论中其它的规定,则可以采用第二鉴别。
Certain monographs give two or more sets of tests for the purpose of the first identification, which are equivalent and may be used independently. One or more of these sets usually contain a cross-reference to a test prescribed in the Tests section of the monograph. It may be used to simplify the work of the analyst carrying out the identification and the prescribed tests. For example, one identification set cross-refers to a test for enantiomeric purity while the other set gives a test for specific optical rotation: the intended purpose of the two is the same, that is, verification that the correct enantiomer is present.
各论第一鉴别项下中给出的两个或多个鉴别试验,它们是等效的并且各自独立不相关联。在各论的“检查“项下通常包含一个或多个交叉引用,用来简化鉴别或检查项下的检验工作。例如:对映异构体的检查,在鉴别项下引用了旋光度检查项下的内容,以此证明是否有对映异构体存在。
Powdered herbal drugs. Monographs on herbal drugs may contain schematic drawings of the powdered drug. These drawings complement the deion given in the relevant identification test.
中药粉末:中药的各论中包含粉末特征图,这些图的完整描述在相关鉴别项下。
TESTS AND ASSAYS
检查
Scope. The requirements are not framed to take account of all possible impurities. It is not to be presumed, for example, that an impurity that is not detectable by means of the prescribed tests is tolerated if common sense and good pharmaceutical practice require that it be absent. See also below under Impurities.
范围:该要求并未对所有杂质进行记述。例如:未进行规定检查的未知杂质通常情况下和良好的药学实践要求下都是允许存在的,这些也可参见在“杂质”项。
Calculation. Where the result of a test or assay is required to be calculated with reference to the dried or anhydrous substance or on some other specified basis, the determination of loss on drying, water content or other property is carried out by the method prescribed in the relevant test in the monograph. The words ‘dried substance’ or ‘anhydrous substance’ etc. appear in parentheses after the result.
计算:当测试结果需要以干燥品或无水物计算时,或用其他特定指标计算时,干燥失重、水分或其他指标的测试方法参见相关各论中的叙述。干燥物或无水物等是在结果后用圆括号附加说明。
Where a quantitative determination of a residual solvent is carried out and a test for loss on drying is not carried out, the content of residual solvent is taken into account for the calculation of the assay content of the substance, the specific optical rotation and the specific absorbance. No further indication is given in the specific monograph.
对残留溶剂进行定量测定,和对干燥过程中的损失进行了测试,并将残留溶剂的含量考虑进去,测定了该物质的含量、特定的旋光度和特定的吸光度。在具体的专著中没有给出进一步的指示。
Limits. The limits prescribed are based on data obtained in normal analytical practice; they take account of normal analytical errors, of acceptable variations in manufacture and compounding and of deterioration to an extent considered acceptable. No further tolerances are to be applied to the limits prescribed to determine whether the article being examined complies with the requirements of the monograph.
限量:限量规定是基于常规分析实验数据之上;还要考虑常规分析的误差,生产工艺和产品的波动,可接受的变坏的程度。各论中要求的“限量”项必须检查。
In determining compliance with a numerical limit, the calculated result of a test or assay is first rounded to the number of significant figures stated, unless otherwise prescribed. The limits, regardless of whether the values are expressed as percentages or as absolute values, are considered significant to the last digit shown (for example 140 indicates 3 significant figures). The last figure of the result is increased by one when the part rejected is equal to or exceeds one half-unit, whereas it is not modified when the part rejected is less than a half-unit.
对于有数值的限量,除非另有规定,检测结果首先是对重要数字进行四舍五入的处理。限量无论是用百分比还是绝对值表示,数值的最后一位为有效位(例如140表示3位有效数值)。要舍弃的数字如果等于或超过了一个半单位就增加一位,如果少于一个半单位则不改变。
Indication of permitted limit of impurities. The acceptance criteria for related substances are expressed in monographs either in terms of comparison of peak areas (comparative tests) or as numerical values. For comparative tests, the approximate content of impurity tolerated, or the sum of impurities, may be indicated in brackets for information only. Acceptance or rejection is determined on the basis of compliance or non-compliance with the stated test. If the use of a reference substance for the named impurity is not prescribed, this content may be expressed as a nominal concentration of the substance used to prepare the reference solution specified in the monograph, unless otherwise described.
杂质限度的表示:有关物质的接受标准在专著中有规定,无论是对比的峰值区域(对比测试)或作为数值计算。对于比较试验,所含杂质的近似含量,或杂质的总和,可在括号内表示,仅供参考。接受与否的标准取决于结果符不符合该实验。除非另有规定,如果该处未对已知杂质对照品进行叙述,该内容在各论的对照品溶液准备项下集中详述。
Herbal drugs. For herbal drugs, the sulfated ash, total ash, water-soluble matter, alcohol-soluble matter, water content, content of essential oil and content of active principle are calculated with reference to the drug that has not been specially dried, unless otherwise prescribed in the monograph.
中药:对于中药而言,计算酸不溶性灰分,总灰分,浸出物,醇溶性浸出物,水分,挥发油和含量测定无需特别进行干燥 ,除非各论中另有说明。
Equivalents. Where an equivalent is given, for the purposes of the Pharmacopoeia only the figures shown are to be used in applying the requirements of the monograph.
当量:药典给出“当量”只是为了在各论中要求时用于计算。
Culture media. The culture media described in monographs and general chapters have been found to be satisfactory for the intended purpose. However, the components of media, particularly those of biological origin, are of variable quality, and it may be necessary for optimal performance to modulate the concentration of some ingredients, notably:
培养基:各论和通则中记载的培养基应满足其使用目的。然而培养基的组成,特别是生物来源都不相同,因而为了达到最佳的使用效果有必要调整一些配比,常见的有:
– peptones and meat or yeast extracts, with respect to their nutritive properties;
- 蛋白胨和肉或酵母膏,需要注明其营养特性
– bufferingsubstances;
- 缓冲物质
– bile salts, bile extract, deoxycholate, and colouring matter, depending on their selective properties;
- 胆盐,胆汁提取物,脱氧物和有色物质,取决于其选择性成分
– antibiotics, with respect to their activity.
-抗体,取决于其活性
STORAGE
储存
The information and recommendations given under the heading Storage do not constitute a pharmacopoeial requirement but the competent authority may specify particular storage conditions that must be met.
“储存”项下的信息和建议并不是药典的要求,但权力机构可能会对特殊储存条件做出规定。
The articles described in the Pharmacopoeia are stored in such a way as to prevent contamination and, as far as possible, deterioration. Where special conditions of storage are recommended, including the type of container (see section 1.3. General chapters) and limits of temperature, they are stated in the monograph.
药典中记述的储存方式是用来预防污染和变质的。当需要某种特殊储存条件时,应该包括“容器类型(参照通则1.3部分)”和“温度限制”,并记载在各论中。
The following expressions are used in monographs under Storage with the meaning shown.
以下是各论中对储存条件表述的解释。
In an airtight container means that the product is stored in an airtight container (3.2). Care is to be taken when the container is opened in a damp atmosphere. A low moisture content may be maintained, if necessary, by the use of a desiccant in the container provided that direct contact with the product is avoided.
“密闭”是指产品储存在一个密闭的容器中(3.2)。当容器敞放在潮湿的环境中时需要注意。如有必要保持低水分时可在容器中直接放入干燥剂,但要避免与产品直接接触。
Protected from light means that the product is stored either in a container made of a material that absorbs actinic light sufficiently to protect the contents from change induced by such light, or in a container enclosed in an outer cover that provides such protection, or is stored in a place from which all such light is excluded.
“避光”保存是指产品既可以储存在由能足够吸收光线的材料容器中来保证产品在光的影响下不变质,也可以储存在外部富有遮盖物的容器中,或可以储存在一个完全不透光的地方。
LABELLING
标签
In general, labelling of medicines is subject to supranational and national regulation and to international agreements. The statements under the heading Labelling are not therefore comprehensive and, moreover, for the purposes of the Pharmacopoeia only those statements that are necessary to demonstrate compliance or non-compliance with the monograph are mandatory. Any other labelling statements are included as recommendations. When the term ‘label’ is used in the Pharmacopoeia, the labelling statements may appear on the container, the package, a leaflet accompanying the package, or a certificate of analysis accompanying the article, as decided by the competent authority.
通常情况下,药品的标签应获得国家和国际组织的批准。“标签”项下的说明并不一定很全面,而且药典规定这些说明中必须注明是否符合各论的标准。其他要求也可写在标签中。当“标签”在药典中使用时,这些标签就可能会在容器,包装,随包装的传单和检验结果报告单中出现,决定权归主管部门。
WARNINGS
警告
Materials described in monographs and reagents specified for use in the Pharmacopoeia may be injurious to health unless adequate precautions are taken. The principles of good quality control laboratory practice and the provisions of any appropriate regulations are to be observed at all times. Attention is drawn to particular hazards in certain monographs by means of a warning statement; absence of such a statement is not to be taken to mean that no hazard exists.
如不采取适当的保护措施,各论中记载的物料和药典中某些特殊的试剂可能会对身体造成伤害。良好质量控制实验室的相应规则条款随时都应引起注意。各论中提出注意特殊危险意味着警告,没有出现该种警告就意味着没有危险存在。
IMPURITIES
杂质
A list of all known and potential impurities that have been shown to be detected by the tests in a monograph may be given. See also chapter 5.10. Control of impurities in substances for pharmaceutical use. The impurities are designated by a letter or letters of the alphabet. Where a letter appears to be missing, the impurity designated by this letter has been deleted from the list during monograph development prior to publication or during monograph revision.
各论中可能给出了已知杂质或未知的可能存在杂质的检查方法(参照章节5.10:药用物料杂质的控制)。杂质是用一个字母或字母表的形式表示。当缺失了某个字母时,代表以该字母表示的杂质在各论的更新和修订中已被删除。
FUNCTIONALITY-RELATED CHARACTERISTICS OF EXCIPIENTS
辅料的功能特性
Monographs on excipients may have a section on functionality-related characteristics. The characteristics, any test methods for determination and any tolerances are not mandatory requirements; they may nevertheless be relevant for use of the excipient and are given for information (see also section 1.1. General statements).
各论中有关于辅料的功能特性的章节。关于用来测定这些特性和耐受性的检查都不是强制性要求,而是给出有关辅料使用的信息(参见凡例1.1部分)。
REFERENCE STANDARDS
对照品
Certain monographs require the use of reference standards (chemical reference substances, herbal reference standards, biological reference preparations, reference spectra). See also chapter 5.12. Reference standards.
某些各论中对对照品(化学对照品,生物标准品和标准图谱)的使用有要求(参照章节5.12:对照品)。
The European Pharmacopoeia Commission establishes the official reference standards, which are alone authoritative in case of arbitration. These reference standards are available from the European Directorate for the Quality of Medicines & HealthCare (EDQM). Information on the available reference standards and a batch validity statement can be obtained via the EDQM website.
欧洲药典委员会建立了官方的对照品,检验时可单独授权使用。这些对照品来自欧洲医学与保健质量局(EDQM)。有关对照品的信息和有效期可以在EDQM的网站上查得。
1.5 ABBREVIATIONS AND SYMBOLS 缩写和符号
Abbreviations used in the monographs on immunoglobulins, immunosera and vaccines
各论中免疫球蛋白,免疫血清和疫苗使用的缩写
1.6 UNITS OF THE INTERNATIONAL SYSTEM (SI) USED IN THE PHARMACOPOEIA AND EQUIVALENCE WITH OTHER UNITS
药典中使用的国际制度单位(SI)和其他等价单位
INTERNATIONAL SYSTEM OF UNITS (SI)
国际制度单位
The International System of Units comprises 3 classes of units, namely base units, derived units and supplementary units(1). The base units and their definitions are set out in Table 1.6-1.
国际制度单位由3种单位组成,分别是基本单位,导出单位和辅助单位。基本单位及其定义参照表1.6-1。
The derived units may be formed by combining the base units according to the algebraic relationships linking the corresponding quantities. Some of these derived units have special names and symbols. The SI units used in the Pharmacopoeia are shown in Table 1.6-2.
根据相应数量的代数关系导出单位一般和基本单位联合使用。其中一些导出单位有特殊的名称和符号。欧洲药典中使用的国际制度单位参照表1.6-2。
Some important and widely used units outside the International System are shown in Table 1.6-3. 国际制度以外的一些重要的和广泛使用的单位参照表1.6-3。
The prefixes shown in Table 1.6-4 are used to form the names and symbols of the decimal multiples and submultiples of SI units.
表1.6-4表示的是国际制度单位中十进制倍数和约数名称和符号的前缀。
NOTES
备注
1. In the Pharmacopoeia, the Celsius temperature is used (symbol t). This is defined by the following equation:
