Facile Derivative Uv Spectroscopy Method: Simultaneous Estimation Of Tinidazole And Fluconazole In Combined Tablet Dosage Form, Saurabh Pandey, Preeti Pandey, Shaifali Dubey, Udisha Chaturvedi, Awani K. Rai Jan 2012

Facile Derivative Uv Spectroscopy Method: Simultaneous Estimation Of Tinidazole And Fluconazole In Combined Tablet Dosage Form, Saurabh Pandey, Preeti Pandey, Shaifali Dubey, Udisha Chaturvedi, Awani K. Rai

The Thai Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences

Two derivative spectrophotometric methods have been developed for simultaneous determination of tinidazole and fluconazole in pharmaceutical formulations. The first method depends on utilization of first derivative UV spectrophotometry, with zero-crossing and peak-to-base measurement at 260.57 & 264.23 nm for fluconazole and 263.86 & 318.85 nm for tinidazole. The second method, compensation technique depends on first derivative of the ratio-spectra by measurements of the amplitudes for tinidazole and fluconazole. Calibration graphs were established for tinidazole and fluconazole in the range of 10-100 μg ml-1 and 2-20 μg ml-1, respectively. All proposed methods have been extensively validated. The results were found to …

The Thai Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences

An accurate, rapid and simple reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) method was developed and validated for simultaneous estimation of cefixime, cloxacillin and for chloramphenicol (internal standard) in human plasma. Chromatographic separation was accomplished using CAPCELL PAK C8 (4.6 mm Ó 250 mm, 5 μm) analytical column using phosphate buffer, methanol and acetonitrile (40:45:15) as eluent. Detection and quantification were performed by UV/Vis detection at 225 nm. The lower limit of detection and quantification were 0.01 μg†mL-1 and 0.25 μg†mL-1 for cefixime, 0.03 μg†mL-1 and 0.39 μg†mL-1 for cloxacillin. The calibration curves were linear over the concentration range 0.5 to …
