ABSTRACT
The current study focuses on creating a unique methodology and testing it for the quantification of Febuxostat (FBX) in formulations and bulk. The primary objective of this research work was to develop a facile, precise, responsive, and validated UV spectrophotometric assay for Febuxostat utilizing the multivariate regression approach. This multivariate calibration technique relied upon equations generated from a linear regression model based on the mathematical relationship between absorbance and concentration at five equidistant wavelengths. Febuxostat exhibited a maximum absorption at a wavelength of 314 nm. The findings underwent statistical analysis to determine their significance. A linear plot exhibiting a regression coefficient of 0.999 was obtained for concentrations ranging from 4 to 6 ?g mL-1. The assay reported to be 99% to 101.13% w/w.
