Determination of tramadol hydrochloride in ampoule dosage forms by using UV spectrophotometric and HPLC-DAD methods in methanol and water media.
Two newly developed simple and sensitive methods for determination of tramadol hydrochloride in ampoule dosage forms were described and validated. Measurements for spectrophotometric method were performed using UV-Vis Spectrophotometer in ranges of 200-400 nm. The solutions of standard and the samples were prepared in methanol and water media and the UV absorption spectrums of tramadol were monitored with maximum absorptions at 275 and 271 nm for both mediums, respectively. The standard calibration curves of tramadol were constructed by plotting absorbance vs. concentration in the concentration range with the final dilution of 10-100 microg ml-1. Reversed phase chromatography for HPLC method was conducted using a Phenomenex Bondclone C18 column with an isocratic mobile phase consisting of 25% acetonitrile in 75% 0.01 M phosphate buffer (pH 3). The effluent was monitored on a DAD detector at 218 nm. Linear response (r>0.99) was observed over the range of 0.5-40 microg ml-1 for methanol and water and run on six different occasions. The methods were applied successfully to pharmaceutical ampoule forms, but also for comparison in two different solvent media. Besides, it was completely validated and proven to be rugged.
