New spectral resolution techniques for resolving and determining the components in binary fixed-dose combinations

摘要

Four spectrophotometric approaches were performed to determine a binary combination of Phenazone and Benzocaine in pure powder form and in pharmaceutical formations. This investigation submits the application of four techniques contingent on the presence of the extended area of the spectra of one compound in the binary mixture, these methods include Absorptivity Centering (a-centering), Absorbance Subtraction (AS), Amplitude Modulation (AM) and Concentration Value (CV). The linearity range for the above-mentioned approaches was found to be 3.0–15.0 μg/mL for Benzocaine in a-centering method and 3.0–30.0 μg/mL for Benzocaine and Phenazone in other advanced methods. The four techniques were evaluated as per ICH criteria and were successfully utilized for the determination of Phenazone and Benzocaine existing in pharmaceutical formulations. All results gained by the submitted approaches were statistically compared with a previously published method, and no important differences were detected.
