| Popis: | A simple, specific, precise, accurate, linear, rapid, economic and validated stability indicating an RP-HPLC method for the simultaneous quantification of cefepime and tazobactam in a dry injection dosage form has been developed. Separation was performed on a 5 µm ACE C18column with phosphate buffer, pH adjusted to 4.5 with phosphoric acid: methanol (70:30) at a flow rate of 1 mL/min and at a temperature of 25 °C. Regression analysis showed linearity at a detector wavelength of 290 nm in the range of 200-600 μg/mL for cefepime and 25-75 μg/mL for tazobactam. All of the analytes were adequately resolved with acceptable tailing. The percentage content found for cefepime was 99.98% and of tazobactam was 99.49% in the parenteral formulation. The method was validated in terms of linearity, precision, accuracy, specificity, robustness and system suitability according to ICH guidelines. Stress degradation studies were performed on the placebo and drug products, drugs of interest were well resolved from the degradation products. The developed method was effectively applied for the simultaneous quantification of cefepime and tazobactam in a dry injection formulation. |
