Determination of Dyclonine Hydrochloride by a HPLC Method and Camphor and Menthol by a GC Method in Compound Lotion

الملخص EN

A high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method with UV detector for the determination of dyclonine hydrochloride and a gas chromatography (GC) method with flame ionization detector (FID) for the determination of camphor and menthol in lotion were developed.

The developed HPLC method involved using a SinoChoom ODS-BP C18 reversed-phase column (5 μm, 4.6 mm × 200 mm) and mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile : water : triethylamine in a ratio of 45 : 55 : 1.0; pH was adjusted to 3.5 with glacial acetic acid.

The developed GC method for determination of camphor and menthol involved using an Agilent 19091J-413 capillary chromatographic column (30 m × 320 μm × 0.25 μm).

The two methods were validated according to official compendia guidelines.

The calibration of dyclonine hydrochloride for HPLC method was linear over the range of 20–200 μg/mL.

The retention time was found at 6.0 min for dyclonine hydrochloride.

The calibration of camphor and menthol of GC method was linear over the range of 10–2000 μg/mL.

The retention time was found at 2.9 min for camphor and 3.05 min for menthol.

The proposed HPLC and GC methods were proved to be suitable for the determination of dyclonine hydrochloride, camphor, and menthol in lotion.
