title: Spectrofluorometric determination of piroxicam.
abstract: The spectrofluorometric determination of piroxicam [4-hydroxy-2-methyl-N-(2-pyridyl)-2II-1,2-benzothiazine-3-carboxam ide-1, 1-dioxide] in pharmaceutical tablets is described. It involves excitation at 330 nm of an acid solution (HNO3 0.5 M) of the drug, and measurement of the fluorescence intensity at 440 nm. The linear range is 0.01-1.25 micrograms ml-1.
