* 07 indicates a 0.7 substitution degree. No respective number means a 0.9 standard substitution degree.

• Calculations were done using a central value of the specification window, USP if possible; otherwise, CE 29.1.
• Variations may occur during testing, depending on:
  • individual batches and/or
  • inorganic compounds, such as salts, catalysts, humidity, etc., were not considered in the calculation.
