Label Claim

We proposed two simple, rapid, and convenient spectrophotometric methods are described for the determination of Amoxicillin in bulk and its pharmaceutical preparations. They are based on the measurement of the flame atomic emission of potassium ion (in first method) and colorimetric determination of the green colored solution for manganite ion at 610 nm formed after reaction of Amoxicillin with potassium permanganate as oxidant agent (in the second method) in basic medium. The working conditions of the methods were investigated and optimized. Beer's law plot showed a good correlation in the concentration range of 5-45 μg/ml. The detection limits and relative standared deviations were (2.573, 2.814 μg/ml) (2.137, 2.498) for the flame emission photometric method and (1.844, 2.016 μg/ml) (1.645,1.932) for colorimetric methods for capsules and suspensions respectively. The methods were successfully applied to the determination of Amoxicillin in capsules and suspensions, and the obtained results were in good agreement with the label claim. No interference was observed from the commonly encountered additives and expectancies.

Abstract This simple method of centrifugal analysis for total protein in human breast milk is based on the change in the wavelength of the absorbance maximum of Coomassie Brilliant Blue G-250 when the dye is bound to protein. Within-run and between-day CVs were 3.8% and 4.8%, respectively. Compared with a micro-Kjeldahl method for determination of total nitrogen, the coefficient of correlation was 0.99.

Lethal Concentration

The toxic effects of four disinfectants viz., copper sulfate (CuSO4), potassium permanganate (KMnO4), methylene blue and malachite green on fish and fish pathogenic bacteria Aeromonas sp., Pseudomonas fluorescens, Edwardsiella sp. and Flavobacterium sp. were investigated. Lethal concentration of the disinfectants to fingerlings of Labeo rohita was determined in aquarium by standard method. Lethal concentration of copper sulfate (CuSO4), potassium permanganate (KMnO4), methylene blue and malachite green against fish were found in 0.75ppm, 7ppm, 6ppm and 0.5ppm at 21.4hrs, 18hrs, 9.5hrs and 1.40hrs, respectively. Methylene blue at 4ppm and 5ppm concentration inhibited the growth of Pseudomonas fluorescens and 6ppm concentration suppressed the growth of Aeromonas sp. Copper sulfate (CuSO4) was effective only against Edwardsiella sp at concentration of 10ppm and 8ppm. Malachite green repressed the growth of all four tasted bacteria at a concentration of 1ppm. Potassium permanganate (KMnO4) was failed to exhibit any inhibitory effect on the bacteria even at 30ppm concentration. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/ijns.v1i4.9738 IJNS 2011 1(4): 102-105
