Background: Rivastigmine Tartrate belongs to the class of cholinesterase inhibitors in Anti-alzheimer’s disease with optimum therapeutic efficacy. Till now no validated method of its quantification has been reported in simulated nasal fluid. Objective: The current research investigation aims to develop a rapid, simple, and reliable UV spectrophotometric method for the quantitative determination of the pure form of Rivastigmine Tartrate in SNF. Method: A suitable method was developed by using double beam UV spectrophotometer and selection of a suitable solvent system for estimation of Rivastigmine Tartrate at absorbance maxima 263nm in SNF. The method was validated for various parameters like including accuracy, linearity and precision as per the International Conference on Harmonization guidelines. Results: The method developed by selecting simulated nasal fluid as the solvent system satisfied the optimum condition of the good quality peak at the selected wavelength. The results proposed the developed method for Rivastigmine Tartrate quantification in the simulated nasal fluid to be linear in the working concentration range of 5-60 µg/ml with a co-relation coefficient of 0.998. The % accuracy was found to be 99.8 -100.57. The % RSD values were < 2 while LOD & LOQ values were detected to be 0.316 and 1.053 respectively. Conclusion: The stated method was analyzed to be rapid, accurate, reliable, and precise. Further, it can be used in checking the quality control parameters of the Rivastigmine Tartrate in routine analysis.

Following the guidelines of the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH), the method was validated for various analytical parameters like linearity, precision, and accuracy robustness, ruggedness, limit of detection, quantification limit, and formulation analysis.Results: The obtained results of the analysis were validated statistically. Recovery studies were performed to confirm the accuracy of the proposed method. In the developed method, linearity over the concentration range of 5-40 μg/ml of HQ was observed with the correlation coefficient of 0.998 and found in good agreement with Beer Lambert’s law. The precision (intra-day and inter-day) of the method was found within official RCD limits (RSD<2%).Conclusion: The sensitivity of the method was assessed by determining the limit of detection and limit of quantification. It could be concluded from the results obtained that the purposed method for estimation of HQ in pure form, in the marketed ointment and in the prepared NLC-formulation was simple, rapid, accurate, precise and economical.

A simple, rapid, accurate, and less expensive spectrophotometric method has been developed for the quantitation of 5-hydroxymethyl furfural (5-HMF) levels in canned malt drinks and fruit juice drinks sampled in the Kumasi Metropolis, Ghana. The quantitation is based on the selective maximum absorption of ultraviolet radiation by 5-HMF at the wavelength (λmax) of 284 nm using acetonitrile : water (50 : 50 v/v) as the solvent system. The method was established to be specific, precise, and accurate over a concentration range of 0.001 mg/ml–0.02 mg/ml. 5-HMF levels in fruit juice samples (A1–A10) were between 0.132 mg/ml and 0.438 mg/ml, and these levels were shown to be comparable (t = 2.200;p=0.0553) to the contents in the canned malt samples (M1–M10) which were between 0.3140 mg/ml and 0.7170 mg/ml. The study failed to show any dependence of 5-HMF levels on the composition of the product as well as the manufacturing process adopted. The length of storage did also not significantly affect the 5-HMF levels in the products.

The double beam UV visible spectrophotometer was used for measurement of absorption. The selected solvent system was further validated according to guidelines of international conference on harmonization (ICH), the analytical parameter like linearity, precision and accuracy etc. were studied. Results Simulated nasal fluid with tween 80 at 1% concentration satisfied all the conditions relative to Peak quality at the stated wavelength. In developed method, curcumin was found to be linear over selected concentration range of 5 to 60µg/ml with a correlation coefficient of 0.998. The accuracy was found to be in range of 99.51 –100.223%.The precision was found to be less than 2 in terms of % RSD. The LOD & LOQ were 0.3657 & 1.109 respectively. Conclusion The proposed method was found to be simple, sensitive and precise. The most important this method can be used for routine quality control analysis of curcumin with accuracy.

Oxcarbazepine (OXC) is an important anticonvulsant and mood stabilizing drug. A pharmacopoeial monograph for OXC is not yet available and therefore the development and validation of a new analytical method for quantification of this drug is essential. In the present study, a UV spectrophotometric method for the determination of OXC was developed. The various parameters, such as linearity, precision, accuracy and specificity, were studied according to International Conference on Harmonization Guidelines. Batches of 150 mg OXC capsules were prepared and analyzed using the validated UV method. The formulations were also evaluated for parameters including drug-excipient compatibility, flowability, uniformity of weight, disintegration time, assay, uniformity of content and the amount of drug dissolved during the first hour.

The present study was undertaken to develop and validate a simple, sensitive, accurate, precise and reproducible UV spectrophotometric method for cefuroxime axetil using methanol as solvent. In this method the simple UV spectrum of cefuroxime axetil in methanol was obtained which exhibits absorption maxima (?max) at 278 nm. The quantitative determination of the drug was carried out at 278 nm and Beer’s law was obeyed in the range of (0.80-3.60) µg/ml. The proposed method was applied to pharmaceutical formulation and percent amount of drug estimated (95.6% and 96%) was found in good agreement with the label claim. The developed method was successfully validated with respect to linearity, specificity, accuracy and precision. The method was shown linear in the mentioned concentrations having line equation y = 0.05x + 0.048 with correlation coefficient of 0.995. The recovery values for cefuroxime axetil ranged from 99.85-100.05. The relative standard deviation of six replicates of assay was less than 2%. The percent relative standard deviations of inter-day precision ranged between 1.45-1.92% and intra-day precision of cefuroxime axetil was 0.96-1.51%. Hence, proposed method was precise, accurate and cost effective.  Keywords: UV-Vis spectrophotometer; Method validation; Cefuroxime axetil; Recovery studies.  © 2013 JSR Publications.
