Collaborative Study of an Ion Exchange Method for Ephedrine in Ephedrine Sulfate Sirup NF
Keyword(s):
Abstract An ion exchange procedure for Ephedrine Sulfate Sirup NF, based on the ability of ephedrine to be retained on a polystyrene sulfonate cation exchange resin column, was studied collaboratively by eight laboratories. The compound is held on the column by a positive charge located in the cationic center of the molecule, it is then eluted with hydrochloric acid, and its ultraviolet absorption is measured. The addition of 57.88 mg ephedrine sulfate to Ephedrine Sulfate Sirup NF resulted in recoveries of 58.39 and 57.72 mg, or 101 and 100%, respectively. Recoveries for collaborative samples, each containing 19.22 and 19.33 mg/5 ml, were 99.8 ± 1.83 and 101 ± 4.09%, respectively.
