Abstract Two atomic absorption spectrophotometric methods are described for determination of histidine. The first is based on reaction of histidine with mercury(II) ions in phosphate buffer (pH 9). The second is based on reaction of histidine with iron(III) ions in neutral medium. The precipitate formed in both methods is separated by centrifugation, and the equivalent Hg(II) or Fe(III) ions as well as surplus ions in the filtrate are determined by atomic absorption at 253.6 and 248.3 nm for Hg and Fe, respectively. Amounts of histidine are calculated from calibration graphs prepared by standard addition methods or by regression equations. The procedures were successfully applied to assay of histidine in dosage forms after thin-layer chromatographic separation. Results compared favorably with those of the official method.

Two simple, accurate and precise spectrophotometric methods were developed for the determination of two veterinary drugs, ceftiofur and tulathromycin in pure form as well as in pharmaceutical formulations. The first one (Method A) based on the reducing action of ceftiofur on Fe (ΙΙΙ) to Fe (ΙΙ) in its complex with 1, 10- phenanthroline (ferrin complex) to give the orange-red colored ferroin complex that exhibits an absorption maximum at 511 nm. Ceftiofur exhibited good linearity in the concentration range of 0.3-3.0 μg mL−1.The second method (Method B) depended on formation of a binary complex between tulathromycin and eosin Y in in the presence of carboxy methylcellulose as surfactant. Under the optimum conditions, the binary complex showed absorption maxima at 556 nm. The method obeyed Beer’s law over concentration range of 1.0–15.0 μg mL−1.  The proposed methods were used for determination of the studied drugs in pharmaceutical formulation; maxfur® powder and draxxin® injections with mean recoveries of 99.57and 99.71%, respectively. The validity of the methods was further proved by applying the standard addition technique. A proposal of the reactions pathways were described.

The present study describes two simple and selective spectrophotometric methods for the rapid determination of etamsylate (ETM) in bulk and in capsule formulations. The methods are based on the oxidation of ETM with ferric chloride in neutral medium and subsequent chelation of the resulting iron(II) with 1,10-phenanthroline (Phen) (method A) and with 2,2?-bipyridyl (Bipy) (method B). The resulting red colored chromogens are measured at 510 and 520 nm, in method A and B, respectively. In both methods, the absorbance is found to increase linearly with increasing ETM concentration. Beer?s law is obeyed over the ranges 0.5-10 and 0.8-16 ?g/ml for method A and B, respectively. The calculated molar absorptivity values are 2.17?104 and 1.65?104 l/mol/cm for method A and B, respectively, and the corresponding sandell sensitivities are 0.012 and 0.016 ?g/cm2. Intra-day and inter-day precision and accuracy of the methods were established according to ICH guidelines. The proposed methods were applied to determine ETM in dosage forms and the results were statistically compared with that of an official BP method.

Two simple and sensitive spectrophotometric methods have been developed for the determination of simvastatin (SMT) in pure form and in tablets using insitu generated bromine, and p-phenylenediamine (PPDA) or o-dianisidine (ODA) as reagents. The methods are based on the bromination of SMT by a measured excess of in situ bromine in acid medium followed by the determination of unreacted bromine by reacting with PPDA and measuring the resulting red color at 510 nm (method A) or reacting with ODA and measuring the absorbance at 470 nm (method B). The conditions for the assay have been optimized. Beer's law is obeyed over the concentration ranges 20-120 and 2-12 ?g/ml for method A and method B, respectively. The calculated molar absorbtivities are 2.24?103 and 1.91?104 dm3 mol-1 cm-1 for the method A and the method B, respectively; 0.1868 and 0.0115 ?g/cm2 being the corresponding Sandell sensitivities. The LOD and LOQ for method A are found to be 2.96 and 8.97 ?g/ml, and the respective values for method B are 0.14 and 0.42 ?g/ml. The intra-day and inter-day precision and accuracies were checked. The assay precision was less than 5 % CV and the accuracy was 97.38-103.4 %. The methods were used for the determination of SMT in tablets. No interference from the excipients added to tablets was found. The accuracy and validity of the methods were further ascertained by recovery studies via the standard addition technique.

The sorption of Hg (II), Cd (II), and As (III) by natural aluminosilicate is studied. It is shown that the mineral absorbs those toxicants in a rather wide pH range, quantitative extraction of analytes being achieved in a neutral or close to neutral medium (pH values range within 7.0 - 8.0; 6.3 - 7.5; 7.4 - 8.5 for Hg (II), As (III), and Cd (II), respectively). The effect of the time of phase contact on the degree of extraction of elements is shown. The sorption capacity of the mineral in optimal conditions of the medium acidity (0.06 mmol/g for mercury, 0.31 mmol/g for cadmium, and 0.52 mmol/g for arsenic) is determined. The distribution coefficients attain values of aboutnX 103-nX 104. A new combined method for determination of Hg (II), Cd (II), and As (III) in natural and waste water is developed and tested. The method consists in a preliminary group sorption concentration of the analytes by aluminosilicate, desorption of the analytes from the surface of the mineral and their subsequent atomic absorption determination. The correctness of the method is verified in analysis of spiked samples. The method is easy to use and exhibits high sensitivity, reproducibility and accuracy of analyte determination. The relative standard deviation does not exceed 0.13. Economic availability and possibility of using domestic sorption materials are the important advantages of the proposed procedure which can be used in the practice of laboratories monitoring the quality and safety of environmental objects.

Abstract New selective, precise, and accurate methods are described for the determination of a ternary mixture containing drotaverine hydrochloride (I), caffeine (II), and paracetamol (III). The first method uses the first (D1) and third (D3) derivative spectrophotometry at 331 and 315 nm for the determination of (I) and (III), respectively, without interference from (II). The second method depends on the simultaneous use of the first derivative of the ratio spectra (DD1) with measurement at 312.4 nm for determination of (I) using the spectrum of 40 μg/mL (III) as a divisor or measurement at 286.4 and 304 nm after using the spectrum of 4 μg/mL (I) as a divisor for the determination of (II) and (III), respectively. In the third method, the predictive abilities of the classical least-squares, principal component regression, and partial least-squares were examined for the simultaneous determination of the ternary mixture. The last method depends on thin-layer chromatography-densitometry after separation of the mixture on silica gel plates using ethyl acetatechloroformmethanol (16 + 3 + 1, v/v/v) as the mobile phase. The spots were scanned at 281, 272, and 248 nm for the determination of (I), (II), and (III), respectively. Regression analysis showed good correlation in the selected ranges with excellent percentage recoveries. The chemical variables affecting the analytical performance of the methodology were studied and optimized. The methods showed no significant interferences from excipients. Intraday and interday assay precision and accuracy values were within regulatory limits. The suggested procedures were checked using laboratory-prepared mixtures and were successfully applied for the analysis of their pharmaceutical preparations. The validity of the proposed methods was further assessed by applying a standard addition technique. The results obtained by applying the proposed methods were statistically analyzed and compared with those obtained by the manufacturer's method.

Two sensitive spectrophotometric methods are described for the determination of simvastatin (SMT) in bulk drug and in tablets. The methods are based on the oxidation of SMT by a measured excess of cerium (IV) in acid medium followed by determination of unreacted oxidant by two different reaction schemes. In one procedure (method A), the residual cerium (IV) is reacted with a fixed concentration of ferroin and the increase in absorbance is measured at 510 nm. The second approach (method B) involves thereduction of the unreacted cerium (IV) with a fixed quantity of iron (II), and the resulting iron (III) is complexed with thiocyanate and the absorbance measured at 470 nm. In both methods, the amount of cerium (IV) reacted corresponds to SMT concentration. The experimental conditions for both methods were optimized. In method A, the absorbance is found to increase linearly with SMT concentration (r = 0.9995) whereas in method B, the same decreased (r = -0.9943). The systems obey Beer’s law for 0.6-7.5 and 0.5-5.0 μg mL-1 for method A and method B, respectively. The calculated molar absorptivity values are 2.7 X 104 and 1.06 X 105 Lmol-1 cm-1, respectively; and the corresponding sandel sensitivity values are 0.0153 and 0.0039μg cm-2, respectively. The limit of detection (LOD) and quantification (LOQ) are reported for both methods. Intra-day and inter-day precision, and accuracy of the methods were established as per the current ICH guidelines. The methods were successfully applied to the determination of SMT in tablets and the results were statistically compared with those of the reference method by applying the Student’s t-test and F-test. No interference was observed from the common excipients added to tablets. The accuracy and validity of the methods were further ascertained by performing recovery experiments via standard addition procedure.

Trandolapril has no sharp peak in its zero-order spectrum, therefore it is difficult to be measured by direct spectrophotometry. In this study, direct univariate spectrophotometric methods were developed and validated for determination of Trandolapril and Verapamil combination in pure and tablet dosage forms. The first method for measuring both Trandolapril and Verapamil is Absorbance Subtraction (AS), this method depends on the presence of iso-absorptive point in the zero-order curve at 217 nm. It has the advantage of measuring the concentration of both Trandolapril and Verapamil from unified regression equation at the iso-absorptive point. The second, third and fourth methods were applied on the first order spectra of the studied drugs. Second method is Derivative Subtraction (DS) for Trandolapril and Derivative subtraction followed by spectrum subtraction (DS-SS) for Verapamil. The third and fourth methods are constant value and concentration value methods. In the concentration value method, the concentration of the drugs is determined from the graphical representation without the use of regression equations. All the developed methods were validated as per International Conference on Harmonization guidelines and the results proved that the developed methods are simple, accurate, and selective. Moreover, a statistical comparison between the developed methods and a reference method was done. Also, One-way ANOVA statistical test was done between all the proposed spectrophoto-metric methods and results showed no significant differences.
