ABSTRACT
Carboplatin is available in injection dosage form; therefore a reliable and economical method
is required for its analysis for quality control. The objective of the present study is to develop
and validate UV-spectrophotometric method for analysis of Carboplatin and its comparison
with already existing method of high performance liquid chromatographic method. The
purpose of this comparison is to evaluate the added significance of using HPLC method in
the presence of validated UV method.
The validated UV-spectrophotometric method demonstrated an excellent linearity (r2 =
0.9995) in a range of concentration from 10?g/mL to 50?g/mL, precision (%RSD = 0.388)
and a mean percentage recovery of 100.14% indicating an accurate method. The assay results
of Carboplatin injection obtained from HPLC and UV-spectroscopic methods are quite
comparable.
Since no added benefit of HPLC method is found in the presence of validated economical
UV-spectrophotometric method, therefore for the quality control purpose, the UV method
may be used for analysis of Carboplatin API as well as in injectable dosage form as an
alternative to HPLC.
