22, 23 and 24The present work aims to study the application of conductometric method in the quality control of loperamide hydrochloride and trimebutine. The present work deals with the investigation

Paclitaxel ic50 of a simple, rapid and accurate method for the determination of LOP.HCl and TB, as raw materials and in some pharmaceutical preparations with no interference of other constituents in their formulations. The conductometric measurements were carried out with a conductivity meter model (702) Conda. The measurements range was 1.0–20.0 microsimens with a Libraries maximum error of ±0.2%. A dip type conductivity cell (K = 1.00) was used. Loperamide hydrochloride (LOP.HCl, M.W. = 513.5 g mol−1) and its pharmaceutical preparation (Imodiumcapsules labeled to contain 2 mg LOPHCl/capsule) was provided from Alexendria for Pharmaceutical Industries, Egypt. Trimebutine (TB, M.W. = 387.48 g mol−1) and its pharmaceutical preparation (Triton tablets labeled to contain 100 mg trimebutine/tablet) were provided from Amoun Pharma, Egypt. Phosphotungestic selleck chemicals llc acid (PTA) H3 [PW12O40 × H2O] was obtained from Aldrich Chemical Company.

Aqueous solutions of PTA was prepared by dissolving the accurately weighed amounts of the pure solid in bi-distilled water using analytical grade purity chemicals, and the exact concentrations of these solutions were determined by Thiamine-diphosphate kinase the appropriate recommended methods.25 and 26 Solutions were kept in the refrigerator for not more than 1 week. Working solutions were freshly prepared

by appropriate dilution. Aliquots of working solutions containing 5.13–42.59 mg of LOP.HCl and 3.87–38.75 mg of TB were transferred to 75 mL volumetric flask and made up to the mark with bi-distilled water. The contents of the volumetric flask were transferred to the titration cell, then 1.0 × 10−2 mol L−1 PTA, was added using a micro-burette, and the conductance was measured after 1–2 min after each addition of reagent through stirring. The conductance reading was corrected for dilution27 by means of the following equation, assuming that conductivity is a linear function of dilution: Ωcorr = Ωobs [(V1 + V2)/V1]where Ωcorr and Ωobs are the corrected and the observed electrolytic conductivities, respectively, V1 is the initial volume and V2 is the volume of the added reagent. A graph of corrected conductivity values versus the volume of the added titrant was constructed and the end point was determined. The drug–titrant ratio is then determined from the intercept of the two linear segments of the graph. A suitable aliquots (1.0–10.0) mL of 10−2 mol L−1 LOP.HCl and TB were transferred into a 75 mL volumetric flask and diluted up to the mark with bi-distilled water.
