3.1. Method A: First Derivative Spectroscopy
Suitable aliquot of standard stock solutions
were diluted with 0.1N NaOH to obtain a
concentration of 25 g/ml and scanned in the range of
200-400 nm. The absorption spectra thus obtained
were derivatized to first order. From the over line
spectra of both the drugs (fig.1) wavelength was
selected for quantization which is 231.02 nm (zero
cross point of DIC) for AMC and 246.26 nm (zero
cross point of AMC) for DIC.
Linearity for both the drugs was obtained in
the concentration range of 15-35 g/ml. For all the
solutions the derivative spectra were obtained over
200-400 nm range. At 231.02 nm there were well
developed first order derivative absorption spectra for
varying
concentrations
of
AMC
for
its
determination(fig.2a) and no interference was
observed with DIC as D1=0 (fig 2b). So any change
in DIC concentration has no effect on quantitative
determination of AMC.
To determine DIC the first order derivative
spectra were used by making measurements at 246.26
nm (fig.3a) at which D1=0 for AMC. No interference
was observed with AMC at different concentrations
(fig.3b) for quantitative determination of DIC. Over
line spectra of both the drugs were given in (fig.4)
The calibration curves were constructed by plotting
drug concentration versus absorbance values of first
derivative spectrum (D1) 231.02nm for AMC and
246.26 nm for DIC. Statistical data for calibration
curves is depicted in (Table 1). The concentrations of
individual drugs present in the mixture were
determined from the calibration curves in
quantization mode.
