Abstract:New simple, rapid, and accurate spectrophotometric techniques for sulphanilamides assay in combination drugs have been elaborated. The method is based on the formation of coloured products of sulphanilamides diazonium salt azoсoupling with heterocyclic azo reagent 4-(2-thiazolylazo)-resorcinol (TAR) in alkaline medium (pH 9.5) with the following measurement of their absorbance at λ max = 615 nm. Formed products are stable for 1 hour at room temperature. Effective molar absorptivities at absorbance maximum 615 nm for disazo dyes were ~ 10 4 M -1 cm -1 . Linear ranges for sulphanilamides determination were 0.5−30.0 µg mL -1 . The developed method was used for the suphanilamides determination in tablets, powder, solutions, suspensions and ointments.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
