title: [Determination of ibandronate by high performance ion exchange chromatography].
abstract: A method for the determination of Ibandronate by high performance ion exchange chromatography is reported. Ibandronate can form a complex compound with the copper ion added in the mobile phase. The complex can be detected at UV 240 nm. The effects of pH of mobile phase and concentration of methanol to the retention time were studied. Concentration of 10% methanol and pH 2.5 were suitable for the detection in less than 5 min. The flow rate was 1.0 mL/min. The relative standard deviation of peak area was 0.8%. The linear correlation was observed from 300 mg/L to 1,500 mg/L of Ibandronate (r = 0.9989). The lowest detectable concentration of Ibandronate was 6 mg/L. The method is simple, rapid and reproducible.
