Collaborative study of a semiautomated fluorometric method for the determination of reserpine in tablets.
A semiautomated fluorometric method for the determination of resperpine in tablets was collaboratively studied by 7 laboratories. The method is a modification of the semiautomated method of Urbányi and Stober, which involves formation of a fluorogen with vanadium pentoxide. Collaborators were supplied with 3 composites, each from a different dosage level of commercial tablets. The results obtained agreed well with the AOAC manual fluorometric method; coefficients of variation ranged from 0.45 to 2.70%. The method has been adopted as official first action.
