Phase - Buffer: Acetonitrile (77:23)
Buffer
Preparation: Dissolve 2.7 g of Potassium Dihydrogen Phosphate in
950ml distil water. Adjust pH to 2.5 with orthophosphoric acid and dilute to
1000 ml with distilled water.
Standard
Preparation
Take 100 mg of Isometamidium chloride hydrochloride
WS in 100 ml volumetric flask and dilute to 100 ml with 30 % v/v solution of
Acetonitrile in water. Stir for 15 minutes on magnetic stirrer to dissolve it
completely.
Sample
Preparation
Take sample equivalent to 100 mg of Isometamidium
chloride hydrochloride in 100 ml volumetric flask and dilute to 100 ml with 30%
v/v solution of Acetonitrile in water.
Stir for 15 minutes on magnetic stirrer to dissolve it completely.
Procedure: Inject one blank,
five replicate injection of standard solution, two replicate injection of
sample solution & two bracketing standard solution.
System Suitability:
1) RSD of five replicate injection of
standard solution should not be more than 2.0%
2) RSD of five replicate injection of standard
solution and two bracketing standard solution should not be more than 2.0%
