Reporting Thresholds in Monographs- Proposed General Chapter <477> User-Determined Reporting Thresholds

Type of Notice: General Announcement
Posting Date: 26-Aug-2022

The General Chapters–Chemical Analysis Expert Committee and USP staff have completed work on a proposed general chapter to aid users in determining an appropriate numeric value for the reporting threshold in chromatographic test procedures.  The new general chapter would be applicable when a user-determined reporting threshold is specified in the individual monograph. The proposed development of this general chapter was previously announced in the General Chapter Prospectus: <477> User-Determined Reporting Thresholds.

The approach described in the proposed general chapter was refined based on feedback from diverse stakeholder groups and input from USP Expert Volunteers. A previous Compendial Notice on this topic may be found at USP Virtual Roundtable on Reporting Thresholds in Monographs (held on June 29, 2021).

The proposed General Chapter <477> User-Determined Reporting Thresholds will be published in the Pharmacopeial Forum 48(5) and remains open for stakeholder comment until November 30, 2022. Your engagement is encouraged.
