title: Spectrophotometric determination of aminacrine hydrochloride in creams, jellies, and suppositories.
abstract: A visible spectrophotometric method has been developed for the quantitation of aminacrine hydrochloride in creams, jellies, and suppositories. Aminacrine hydrochloride was extracted into acidic ethanol and its visible spectrum was recorded. The amount present was calculated by determining the net absorbance between the absorbance maximum at about 402 nm and one-half the sum of the absorbances of the minima at about 389 and 412 nm. Aminacrine and a trace contaminant, 9(10H)-acridone, were independently identified by different thin layer chromatographic systems.
