Spectrophotometric and Indirect Determination of Lincomycin by Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS)

Abstract

The reaction of lincomycin with cupric ions in alkaline medium was taken as a basis for the colorimetric and indirect atomic absorption spectrometric (AAS) determination of lincomycin hydrochloride.

The AAS procedure was based on the extraction of copper-lincomycin complex at pH 11, into n-butanol. The copper content in this extract was determined by AAS. The response was linear for up to 30 μg ml^?1 of lincomycin. The method is accurate, sensitive and simple.

The proposed methods were applied to pharmaceutical preparations with fine accuracy.

Simultaneous Determination of Diazepam,Oxazepam and Temazepam in Spiked Urine By Hplc

ABSTRACT|Oxazepam and temazepam are two minor metabolites of diazepam. These three benzodiazepines may be found in presence of each other in biological fluids.

Therefore, in this study an HPLC method was developed to separate and analyze them. Benzodiazepines have ability to form inclusion complexes with p-cyclodextrin (β-CyD). According to the degree of binding constant with β-CyD, these compounds can be separated by β-CyD bound to silica (cyclobond column) as the stationary phase using HPLC.

The development and validation of the HPLC procedure for the separation and determination of these compounds in mixtures were studied. The mobile-phase system consisted of phosphate buffer (pH 7): methanol [75:25], with flow rate 0.8 ml min^?1 and UV detection at 240 nm was used.

The calibration graphs were rectilinear from 0.1-2.5 μg/ml and coefficients of variation were <2% for the three compounds in bulk forms.

The method was used to analyse these bezodiazepines in spiked urine containing all three compounds in combination. Recoveries were 97-99.8%

The limit of detection and limit of quantitation were 0.05 μg/ml and 0.1 μg/ml, respectively.

The described method is selective, rapid, simple, reproducible and accurate.
