Test solution. Dissolve 50 mg of the substance to be examined
in the mobile phase and dilute to 20.0 mL with the mobile
phase.
Reference solution (a). Dissolve the contents of a vial of
solifenacin for system suitability CRS (containing impurities F,
G and H) in 1.0 mL of the mobile phase.
Reference solution (b). Dilute 1.0 mL of the test solution to
100.0 mL with the mobile phase. Dilute 1.0 mL of this solution

to 10.0 mL with the mobile phase.
