Impurity profiling of Cefteram pivoxil based on Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance MS

Profiling impurities for the active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) is an indispensable step in drug development process. Nowadays, high resolution mass spectrometry is the first choice for determining the chemical formula of organic impurities. However, merely base on the accurate mass to screen the formula is obviously not a flawless method. In this paper, a reliable strategy based on Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass...
