METHOD DEVELOPMENT AND ITS VALIDATION FOR ESTIMATION OF TORSEMIDE IN TABLET DOSAGE FORM BY RP-HPLC AND UV SPECTROPHOTOMETRY AND COMPARISON OF TWO DEVELOPED METHODS BY USING t-TEST

ABSTRACT
One HPLC and one UV spectrophotometric method have been developed for the determination of torsemide (TRS) in tablet dosage form. The first method is based on determinetion of TRS in tablet dosage form by RP- HPLC method.  Chromatgraphy was carried out on a nucleosil C-18,250 x 4.6 mm column using a mixture of phosphate buffer and methanol  (50:50 v/v)  as the mobile phase at a flow rate of 1.3 ml/min.  Run time was 15 min.  Detection was done at 288 nm and retention time of the drug was 7.05 min.  This method produced linear responses in the concentration range 60-140  µg/ml of torsemide. The accuracy of the method was assessed by recovery studies and was found to be 99.90± 0.41 for torsemide.  The second method is based on the estimation of torsemide in tablet dosage form by UV spectrophotometry using 50% v/v methanol in distilled water.  Beer’s law obeyed over the concentration range 2-26 µg/ml at 288 nm with apparent molar absorptivity of 1.26 x 10⁴.  Both developed methods were found to be applicable for routine analysis of drug in tablet dosage form. The result of the analysis were validated statistically.The results were compared obtained from UV spectrophotometry and HPLC.

Abstract
Microspheres offer an excellent solution to creating precise pore sizes in ceramics at reasonable prices.  Polyethylene microspheres offer the added benefit of minimal residue after firing, and the availability in wide size ranges from a few micron up to 1000um (1mm).    Highly spherical microspheres have the added benefit of creating strong pores without any stress risers. Biodegradable microspheres are used to control drug release rates thereby decreasing toxic side effects, and eliminating the inconvenience of repeated injections. Microparticulate carrier system can be administered through different routes such as i.v,ocular,i.m,oral,intra arterial.etc.Each routes has it’s own biological significance, limitation & pharmaceutical feasibility.
