Abstract A simple and time-efficient UV spectrophotometric method was developed for the determination of sucralose in artificial sweeteners. The procedure is based on the UV spectrophotometric determination of the photodegraded product at 270 nm in alkaline medium (pH 12). LOD for this method was 0.02 g/L, and the calibration curve was found to obey Beer's law in the concentration range of 0.1 to 1.2 g/L, with a correlation coefficient (R2) value of 0.9977. The proposed method was studied for accuracy and precision.

Abstract A UV spectrophotometric method was developed for determination of ceftiofur sodium in the drug substance and sterile powder for injection. The method validation, which yielded good results, included evaluation of the range, linearity, intraand interday precision, accuracy, recovery, specificity, robustness, LOQ, and LOD. The UV spectrophotometric determinations were performed at 292 nm. Good linearity was obtained between 2.5 and 20.0 g/mL. A prospective validation showed that the method is linear (r = 0.9999) and precise, with RSD values of 0.3 for product A and 0.4 for product B. The intraand interday precision values were <2 for all samples analyzed. Comparison of UV spectrophotometry and LC by analysis of variance and Student's t-test showed no significant difference between methodologies. Moreover, the accuracy and precision obtained with the UV method correlated well with the values obtained with the LC method, and this correlation suggests that UV spectrophotometric analysis can be an inexpensive, reliable, and less time-consuming alternative to chromatographic analysis. The results demonstrated the validity of the proposed method as a simple and useful alternative for the determination of ceftiofur in routine QC analyses.

Normal spectra for sulfamethoxazolesolutions were developed and used for the determination of sulfamethoxazole (SMX) antibiotic by using zero-crossing technique and simultaneously determining (SMX) at wavelength 259.00 nm. The correlation coefficient of the calibration curve for the normalspectrum was 0.9990. Linearity was maintained by using concentrations (0.990104M, 0.996104M, 0.999104M, 1.004104M, 1.005104M) and the percentage recovery of sulfamethoxazolesamples were (99.00%, 99.60%, 99.90 %, 100.40 % and 100.50 %). A statistical analysis confirmed, a precision with accuracy for simultaneous fixing of (SMX). In addition, a British pharmacopoeia method was compared with the method used in this paper using F test.

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.

A new kinetic spectrophotometric method is described for the determination of ultratrace amounts of sodium cromoglycate (SCG). The method based on catalytic action of SCG on the oxidation of amaranth with periodate in acidic and micellar medium. The reaction was monitored spectrophotometrically by measuring the decrease in absorbance of the amaranth at 518 nm, for the first 4 min from initiation of the reaction. Calibration curve was linear in the range of 4.0−36.0 ng mL−1SCG. The limit of detection is 2.7 ng mL−1SCG. The relative standard deviation (RSD) for ten replicate analyses of 12, 20, and 28 ng mL−1SCG was 0.40%, 0.32%, and 0.53%, respectively. The proposed method was used for the determination of SCG in biological samples.

Iron(III) form an indigo-blue complex with the disulphonated product of hydroquinone (K2S2Hy) in acid media with an absorption maxima at 600 nm. The time stability of the complex, dependence of the complex absorbance on pH and the influence of temperature and solvent were followed on the basis of spectrophotometric measurements. Using the Job, mole ratio and Henry?Franck?Ostwald methods, the composition and relative stability constant of this complex, in 80 vol.% ethanol as solvent, were determined (1:1;log??293 = 3.37). A new spectrophotometric method for the determination of iron has been developed and the calibration curve is linear in the concentration range from0.65 to 6.45 ?g cm-3. The effects of foreign ions on the determination of iron were investigated in order to assess the selectivity of the method. The method was applied for the determination of Fe(III) in the natural juice of beet.

Abstract Context.—The international normalized ratio (INR) has been used since 1983 to standardize prothrombin time results for patients on oral anticoagulants. However, significant interlaboratory variations have been noted. Attempts have been made to address these differences with the use of instrument-specific International Sensitivity Index (ISI) values and in-house calibration of ISI values. Objective.—To assess the performance of laboratories using a calibration curve for INR testing. Design.—Attempts to improve performance of the INR include the use of instrument-specific ISI values, model-specific ISI values, in-house calibration of ISI values, and more recently, the preparation of a calibration curve. Several studies have shown an improvement in performance using these procedures. In this study of licensed laboratories performing routine coagulation testing in the Province of Ontario, Canada, the determination of the INR by a calibration curve was compared with the laboratories' usual method of assessment. These methods were subsequently analyzed by comparing the results to instrument-specific ISI, model-specific ISI, and in-house calibrators. International normalized ratios derived by both methods were analyzed for accuracy and precision. The stability of a calibration curve was also investigated. Results.—Performance of INR testing has improved with use of a calibration curve or in-house calibrators. Conclusion.—The results confirm that either in-house calibrators or the calibration curve improve performance of INR testing. The calibration curve may be easier to use and appears stable up to 4 months.

A simple and sensitive spectrophotometric method for the determination of ramipril and telmisartan in pharmaceutical dosage forms has been developed. The absorption maxima were found at 220nm for ramipril and 297nm for telmisartan using 0.1N NaOH as solvent. Beer’s law was obeyed for both the drugs in the concentration range of 2-10μg/ml with correlation coefficients 0.999 for both ramipril and telmisartan. The limits of detection for ramipril and telmisartan were found to be 0.142 and 0.405μg/mL respectively and the limits of quantitation were 0.43 and 1.22μg/mL. Accuracy of the method was verified by performing recovery studies using simultaneous equation method and found to be 98.33 to 99.54%w/w for ramipril and 99.36 to 99.82 %w/w for telmisartan. %RSD of repeatability and intermediate precision studies were found to be <2 for both the drugs. Ruggedness of the method was checked by changing analyst worked and instrument used. In both the cases, the %RSD was found to be less than 2.
