A RP-HPLC Method Development and Validation for the Estimation of Ritonavir in Bulk and Pharmaceutical Dosage Form
Abstract
The present study was to develop and validate reverse phase highperformance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) method for the estimation of Ritonavir. The RP-HPLC separation was achieved on JASCO HPLC system at 1ml/min flow rate on HiQSilC18 (250 x 4.6 mm, 5 μm) columnby using acetonitrile: 10 mM ammonium acetate buffer (pH 4) (85:15%V/V) as mobile phase at wavelength 239 nm. The data of linear regression analysis indicated a good linear relationship over the range of 5–30 μg/ml concentration with correlation coefficient value of 0.997. The accuracy of the method is indicated by good recovery in the range of 99.43%-100.53%and precision with RSD less than 2%
