ABSTRACT
A simple, accurate, low cost and specific HPTLC method for estimation of quetiapine fumarate in tablet has been developed. It was performed on Silica gel G₆₀ F₂₅₄ aluminium foil using acetonitrile : chloroform in the ratio of 1:9 as mobile phase. The mobile phase having chamber was saturated for 20 minutes at room temperature. The R_f value of quetiapine fumarate was found to be 0.45. The plate was scanned and quantified at 242 nm. The calibration curve response was observed between 5-25 μg. The linear regression data showed good linear relationship of r = 0.999. The percent recovery was found to be 100.0 ± 0.01.The developed method was validated for its accuracy and precision with suitable parameters.
