Determination of Cefadroxil in Tablet/Capsule formulations by a validated Reverse Phase High Performance Liquid Chromatographic method
Journal Title: Pakistan Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences - Year 2015, Vol 28, Issue 4
Abstract
An innovative, selective and rapid reversed phase High Performance Liquid Chromatographic (RP-HPLC) method for the analysis of cefadroxil in bulk material and oral solid dosage forms has been developed and validated. The chromatographic system consisted of Sil-20A auto sampler, LC-20A pump and SPD-20A UV/visible detector. The separation was achieved by C18 column at ambient temperature with a mobile phase consisting of methanol: Phosphate buffer (10: 90) at a flow rate of 1.5 ml/min. The method is reproducible, repeatable (%RSD for intra-day and inter-day ranged between 1.75-5.33% and 0.58-2.69%) and linear (R2=0.9935). The LOD and LOQ of the method were 0.5 and 1.0 μg/ml, respectively. The present RP-HPLC method was found to be sensitive, accurate, precise, rapid and cost effective that can be efficiently used in QC/QA laboratories for routine analysis of the raw materials as well as oral dosage formulations of cefadroxil.
