In this study, a sustainable HPLC-UV-DAD method was developed and validated for the determination of allopurinol in tablets and optimization of the dissolution test using factorial design. The separation of the analyte from the sample matrix was achieved in 3.01 minutes in a C8 column (4.6 mm X 150 mm X 5 μm), using mobile phase 0.1 mol L-1 HCl (25%) + ethanol (50%) + ultrapure water (25%) by UV detection at 249 nm. The method presented satisfactory analytical parameters of validation (specificity, selectivity, linearity, stability, precision, accuracy, and robustness), showing no matrix effects. The dissolution test was optimized by complete factorial design 23 and, the optimal conditions were: HCl 0.001 mol L-1, apparatus II (paddle) and 75 rpm. The analytical procedures and dissolution tests were applied to allopurinol tablets marketed in Bahia, Brazil, to evaluate the dissolution studies. The pharmaceuticals had similar dissolution profiles and first-order dissolution kinetics. This new and sustainable HPLC-UV-DAD method is friendly to the environment and can be used for the routine pharmaceutical analysis of allopurinol in fixed dosage forms.

A highly sensitive and simple micelle enhanced spectrofluorimetric method was developed for assaying mirtazapine (MRZ) in REMERON® tablets and spiked human urine directly without the need of derivatizing agent. The basis of the current procedure is the examination of the relative fluorescence intensity (RFI) of MRZ in sodium lauryl sulphate (SLS) micellar medium. The RFI of MRZ in water was enhanced markedly on addition of SLS. The RFI was measured at 403 nm after excitation at 320 nm. The fluorescence-concentration relationship was linear over the range 1–500 ng/mL, with lower detection limit of 0.399 ng/mL. The proposed method was successfully applied to the determination of MRZ in dosage form and spiked human urine. Recovery percentages of MRZ utilizing the current method were99.05±1.83,98.37±1.96, and100.41±2.61% for pure powder, pharmaceutical dosage form, and spiked human urine, respectively. The application of the proposed method was extended to test content uniformity and the in vitro drug release of REMERON tablets, according to USP guidelines.
