Objective: To evaluate the feasibility of heparin-binding capacity method for testing biological potency of protamine sulfate. Methods: The precision, accuracy and robustness of heparin-binding method were determined. The consistency of coagulation method and heparin-binding capacity method by bivariate regression was analyzed. Results: Heparin-binding capacity method possesses better precision and accuracy than that of coagulation method for testing biological potency of protamine sulfate. The repeatability is 1.2%, intermediate precision is 1.8%, and recovery is 99.1%. No significant difference of protamine sulfate biological potency determined by heparin-binding capacity method and coagulation method was found. Conclusion: Heparin-binding capacity method can be used for measuring biological potency of protamine sulfate. Moreover, the method is more objective, simple, convenient, precise and accurate compared with coagulation method. It could be an alternative method to replacing the coagulation method.
