Abstract: | A flow-injection method for determination of dipyrone (novalgin, metamizol) in pharmaceutical tablets with biamperometric detection is described. Flow-parameters such as flow rate, coil length and sample injection volume were optimized. The calibration graph was linear (r=0.9997) within the range of 10-50 mg l−1 in a 1-mmol l−1 HCl carrier solution for an applied potential of 100 mV between the two platinum wire electrodes. Two indicating redox systems were studied, namely Fe(III)/Fe(II) and I2/I−. The former proved to be well suited as a selective and sensitive biamperometric indicating system for dipyrone in the presence of ingredients commonly accompanying the drug. The developed method was successfully applied to the determination of dipyrone in several commercial pharmaceutical preparations. The sampling rate was 71 samples per hour with a rsd of 1.6% (eight injections of a 14-mg l−1 dipyrone solution). Recoveries close to 100% demonstrated the reliability of the proposed method. |
