Tromethamine [tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane] is used as an emulsifying agent, alkaliser and buffering agent in pharmaceutical preparations such as eye-care solutions. A new method for the determination of this compound in an eye-care preparation was developed using capillary zone electrophoresis with indirect UV detection. The method displayed linearity between 2.5 and 25 mg l-1 with a correl...

BACKGROUND Administration of parenteral doses with microbial contamination can lead to infective morbidity or death. AIM To test whether aseptic preparation of parenteral doses or additives to sterile doses undertaken in dedicated pharmaceutical rather than clinical environments reduces the risk of microbial dose contamination.

A simple, sensitive and accurate method for spectrophotometric determination of Dalacinphosphatehas been established. The method is based on the reduction of atomic absorptioncalcium ion by phosphate. Because, there is a phosphate mole in every Dalacin mole structureand with measurement of phosphate, Dalacin is beyond measurement too. Therefore, the reactionbetween acidic hydrolysis products of...
