A FAST AND SENSITIVE SPECTROPHOTOMETRIC METHOD FOR THE DETERMINATION OF HYDRAZINE IN ATAZANAVIR SULFATE DRUG SUBSTANCE
Keywords:
UV Spectrophotometry, Hydrazine, Atazanavir Sulfate, Method development, ValidationAbstract
Objective: To develop a fast and sensitive UV spectrophotometric method for the quantitative estimation of Hydrazine in Atazanavir Sulfate drug substances and validate as per ICH guidelines.
Methods: The method was based upon the observation, that a characteristic colour results upon addition of a solution of p-Dimethylaminobenzaldehyde in ethyl alcohol and hydrochloric acid to hydrazine and estimated at absorbance maximum  458 nm in Atazanavir drug substance.
Results: The developed method resulted in Hydrazine exhibiting linearity in the range 0.2 to 2.7 µg/g. The Intraday and interday precision is exemplified by relative standard deviation of 0.959 % and 0.947%. Percentage Mean recovery was found to be in the range of 97â€101%, during accuracy studies. The limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantitiation (LOQ) were found to be 0.2 µg/g and 0.6 µg/g respectively.
Conclusion: The present work was aimed to develop a visible spectrophotometric method, which is simple, sensitive, accurate and cost effective to evaluate the quality of the bulk and pharmaceutical formulations.
