The biguanide concentration of polyhexamethylene biguanide hydrochloride (PHMB-HCl) was measured by non-aqueous titration with HClO4, argentometric titration, the Kjeldhal method, and colloidal titration. The summation value of non-aqueous titration and argentometric titration corresponded to two titrable nitrogens in five nitrogens per one unit of PHMB-HCl, and consisted with the result of the...

A simple, sensitive, rapid, reproducible, economical and easily accessible method for the determination of tinidazole tablets is described. From the experiment carried out there is the need for recrystallisation of tinidazole tablet before it is analysized. Ultraviolet (UV) absorption analysis corresponds to the result obtained with non-aqueous titration. And the best solvent to be use for non-...

Alpha-hydroxylic acids are widely used in the treatment and control of skin disorders. Azelaic acid is a naturally occuring Alpha-hydroxy acid that can be formed endogenously from long-chain dicardoxylic acids, metabolism of oleic acid or omega oxidation of mono carboxylic acids. It shows bacteriostatic and bactericidal activities against aerobic and anaerobic micro-organisms present on acne-be...
