%0 Journal Article %T Determination of Pioglitazone Hydrochloride in Tablets by High-Performance Liquid Chromatography %A AMR Lotfy Saber %J Pakistan Journal of Analytical and Environmental Chemistry %D 2008 %I University of Sindh %X A rapid and accurate HPLC method has been developed for the determination of pioglitazone hydrochloride in tablets. Chromatographic analysis was performed on a Nova-Pak C18 column (3.9mm x 150mm, 5¦Ìm) with a mixture of ammonium formate buffer adjusted with formic acid to pH 3 and acetonitrile (75:25, v/v) as mobile phase, at flow rate of 1.0 mL min-1, and UV detection at 225 nm. The determination was completed in less than 12 min. Linearity ¡Ý 0.5 ¦ÌgmL-1, accuracy ¡Ý 99.14 %, and precision ¡Ü 0.6 % were found to be acceptable over the range 0.5 - 20 ¦ÌgmL-1. %K Pioglitazone %K Tablets %K HPLC. %U http://www.ceacsu.edu.pk/PDF%20file/Journal%20Volume%209,%20Issue%202/10.pdf
