Popis: A normal-phase high-performance thin-layer chromatographic (HPTLC) method has been established for simultaneous quantitative determination of diclofenac sodium and paracetamol in a pharmaceutical formulation and in bulk drug powder. The analysis was performed on silica gel 60F 254 HPTLC plates with toluene-ethyl acetate-methanol-formic acid, 5.0 + 4.0 + 1.0 + 0.01 ( v / v ), as mobile phase. Detection and quantitation were performed densitometrically at λ = 260 nm. Aceclofenac was used as the internal standard. Responses of diclofenac sodium standard and paracetamol standard were linear functions of concentration in the ranges 30–800 ng μL −1 and from 300–2000 ng μL −1 , respectively. The method was validated to determine its accuracy and precision. Accuracy was checked by conducting recovery studies; average recovery from the pharmaceutical preparation was 99.57% for diclofenac sodium and 100.51% for paracetamol. This HPTLC method developed for simultaneous quantitative determination of diclofenac sodium...
