HPLC and UV Spectrophotometric Estimation of Pyrazinamide in Pharmaceutical Formulations

Abstract Pyrazinamide is an antituberculosis agent. It works by killing or preventing the growth of certain bacteria that cause tuberculosis. HPLC and UV method was employed for the estimation of Pyrazinamide in pharmaceutical formulations. A mixture of Methanol: Water in the ratio of 80:20 (v/v/v) at a pH of 4.8 in isocratic conditions and separation…

Method development and validation of an Isocratic High pressure Liquid chromatography technique for analysis of Risperidone in Bulk drug and Formulation

Abstract Risperidone is a potent antipsychotic drug which is mainly used to treat schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder. A new isocratic HPLC method was developed for analysis in formulations. The developed method was validated according to ICH guidelines. The method was developed with the mobile phase 0.1% OPA: Methanol:Acetonitrile in the ratio of  60:25:15(V/V/V). In this method the back pressure was…
