recommended that the following system suitability checks be performed with each run: ( 1 ) the repeatability (RSD) of peak areas from triplicate injections of mixed standard preparation at 50 μg/mL; ( 2 ) the relative retention times of standards; ( 3 ) the resolution between withanoside V and withaferin A peaks; ( 4 ) the tailing factor for each analyte; and ( 5 ) the r 2 from the plot of peak area versus concentration for each standard

analyte (must be ≥0.998). Note that the QC-check sample is not commercially available, however if desired, laboratories can develop their own QC-check sample following the procedure described above. If the system suitability requirements are not met, the composition of the mobile phase can be adjusted or a new LC column used to meet system suitability before analyzing samples.
