title: HPLC and HPTLC assays for the antimalarial agents chloroquine, primaquine and bulaquine.
abstract: A combination Kit for antirelapse treatment of P. vivax malaria, consisting of Chloroquine phosphate tablets and Bulaquine capsules has been recently developed, and marketed under the trade name Aablaquine. Bulaquine is prepared from Primaquine. Several methods of analysis are reported for each drug separately as well two drugs in combination but no method for simultaneous estimation of these three drugs is known. Therefore, the present study was undertaken to develop a sensitive and reproducible high performance liquid chromatographic as well as high performance thin layer chromatographic assay method for the simultaneous estimation of Chloroquine, Primaquine and Bulaquine.
