232 ELEMENTAL IMPURITIES LIMITSINTRODUCTIONThis general chapter specifies limits for the amounts of ELEMENTAL impurities in drug products. ELEMENTAL impurities includecatalysts and environmental contaminants that may be present in drug substances, excipients, or drug products. These impuri-ties may occur naturally, be added intentionally, or be introduced inadvertently ( , by interactions with processing equip-ment and the container closure system). When ELEMENTAL impurities are known to be present, have been added, or have thepotential for introduction, assurance of compliance to the specified levels is required. A risk-based control strategy may be ap-propriate when analysts determine how to assure compliance with this standard.
The results obtained from the analysis of a typical dosage unit, scaled to a maximum daily dose, are compared to the Daily Dose PDE. Daily Dose PDE ³ measured value (mg/g) × maximum daily dose (g/day) ... No further calculation is necessary. While
