Gabapentin is an anticonvulsant widely used in the treatment of epilepsy. No peculiar chromophore is available on the gabapentin moiety for direct analysis by absorption spectrophotometry. A sensitive spectrophotometric method for the determination of gabapentin in bulk, pharmaceutical formulations and human plasma has been developed. In this method, gabapentin directly derivatized with vanilli...

Rapid semiquantitative elemental screening of pharmaceutical samples is described using the Agilent 7500ce ICP-MS with helium as collision gas. Polyatomic interferences are eliminated in the He pressurized cell, enabling rapid elemental profiling of pharmaceutical tablets for screening purposes. Elements which normally suffer from polyatomic interferences have been included in the semiquantitat...

objective(s):cefixime (cfx), is a semi-synthetic third-generation oral cephalosporin antibiotic that is prescribed for the treatment of susceptible infections. there are some procedures for the determination of cfx in pharmaceutical formulations and biological samples. herein a spectrofluorimetric method was proposed for cfx determination based on the fluorescence quenching of terbium-danofloxa...

Control of elemental impurities in pharmaceutical materials is currently undergoing a transition from control based on concentrations in components of drug products to control based on permitted daily exposures in drug products. Within the pharmaceutical community, there is uncertainty regarding the impact of these changes on manufactures of drug products. This uncertainty is fueled in part by ...
