If there is no any known impurity in the product then how to do the related substance method validation.
for eg. in one product impurity limit is
Any unspecified impurity - NMT 0.5%
Total impurity - NMT 2.0%
So any reference or guideline for the these method validation
You have to prove it! Perform ‘forced degradation’ up to 5 days (acid, base, heat, light, oxidation). Maximum degradation 10-15% of the API concentration.
Then prove your method is ‘stability indicating’. Mass balance should be 100% if there are no RS.
