The electrochemical behavior of Sulfaclozine Sodium (SLC) was studied at a bare and sephadex-modified carbon paste electrodes by cyclic voltammetry and square wave voltammetry. The cyclic voltammetry (CV) showed a well-defined irreversible oxidation peak at 0.94 V in Britton-Robinson buffer pH 7.0. The strong affinity of SLC to sephadex allowed accumulation of SLC at the surface of electrode and thus higher electrochemical sensitivity to SLC. The influence of sephadex loading, the pH of the solution and the scan rate on the peak current was studied. A linear calibration curve covering the concentration range from 0.005 to 1 mM was obtained using SWV. The method was successfully applied for the determination of SLC in the veterinary pharmaceutical formulations with satisfactory accuracy and precision.

Spiramycin (SPI) and oxytetracycline (OTC) are widely used antibacterial drugs. Thus, a great attention has been focusing on the development of a simple and selective analytical procedure for fast analysis of these compounds in a binary pharmaceutical mixture. Herein, we report four simple and reproducible spectrophotometric methods for determination of SPI and OTC in a binary mixture and in veterinary pharmaceutical formulations. A ratio difference (RD) based on the difference in the amplitude of the ratio spectra and dual wavelength methods were proposed for sensitive and selective determination of SPI in presence of OTC. Furthermore, Constant Value and Concentration Value based spectrophotometric methods were suggested for simultaneous determination of SPI and OTC in a binary mixture. The methods were successfully applied for the determination of SPI and OTC over the concentration range from 4.0 to 36.0 µg mL -1 and from 2.0 to 32.0 µg mL -1 , respectively. The proposed methods were validated according to the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) guidelines. The methods are accurate (100±1%), precise (%RSD ≤1.5) and costeffective for determination of SPI and OTC in binary mixtures.
