METHOD DEVELOPMENT AND VALIDATION FOR SIMULTANEOUS ESTIMATION OF ATORVASTATIN CALCIUM AND CELECOXIB BY RP-HPLC Authors: Kaur M , KAUR K AND SHARMA D
ABSTRACT
A stable, rapid, accurate and selective method has been developed for the estimation of
Atorvastatin calcium and Celecoxib by using buffer (pH3.7) and acetonitrile in ratio(40:60 v/v)
in combination as mobile phase and at the flow rate of 1.5 ml/min at ????max 254 nm.
Chromatographic separation was performed on Shimadzu LC-2010 ATVP prominence liquid
chromatograph and using Shimadzu SPD-10AVP UV-Visible detector, an Qualisil GOLD C18 5µ
(250× 4.60 mm) column used as stationary phase. Validation of the method was done according
to the guidelines ICH Q2 (R1). Calibration curve was linear at concentration of 1-10 µg/ml of
Atorvastatin calcium and Celecoxib respectively; detection was carried out at ????max 254 nm; linear
regression equation for Atorvastatin calcium was Y=33546x-192.6; R2=0.998 and linear
regression equation for Celecoxib was Y=51830x-5320; R2=0.998 respectively. Retention time
for Atorvastatin calcium and Celecoxib was 4.544 min and 6.064 min respectively. LOD for
Atorvastatin calcium and Celecoxib was 0.01399 µg/ml and 0.01460 µg/ml respectively and
LOQ for Atorvastatin calcium and Celecoxib was 0.0424µg/ml and 0.04426µg/ml respectively.
The results of present study suggested that proposed method provides good peak resolution of
Atorvastatin calcium and Celecoxib within short analysis time (<10 min) and high percentage of recovery shown that method is free from interference of excipients. The % RSD of each
parameter lies below the limit of 2% proves the suitability. The statistical analysis proved that
the proposed method is precise, accurate, selective and rapid for the estimation of both drugs.
