OBJECTIVE: To determine the contents of telmisartan and hydrochlorothiazid in compound telmisartan preparation by TLC. METHODS: Using acetic ether-chloroform-methanol-glacial acetic acid (50∶40∶10∶5) as developer, the contents of telmisartan and hydrochlorothiazid were determined by dual wavelength thin layer chromatography with the reflection linearity parameter SX=7 and slit=1.0 mm?5.0 mm. The determinated wavelength of telmisartan was as follows: ?R=365 nm and ?S=305 nm; the wavelength of hydrochlorothiazid was as follows: ?R=370 nm and ?S=275 nm. RESULTS: The linear ranges of telmisartan and hydrochlorothiazid were 1.114～5.57 ?g (r=0.999 6) and 3.664～18.32 ?g (r=0.999 8), respectively, and the average recovery rates of telmisartan and hydrochlorothiazid were 97.95% (RSD=1.30%) and 98.32% (RSD=1.13%), respectively. CONCLUSION: The method is simple, rapid, accurate and it can be used for the quality control of compound telmisartan preparation.

OBJECTIVE:To simultaneously determine the contents of CIPRO and MNZ in compound ciprofloxacin ear dro_ ps by nodical polyploid UV-spectrophotometry.METHODS:CIPRO and MNZ were nodical absorption at wavelength of350.0nm and this was just the sum of isoabsorptive point of two components while DXM did not absorb UV ray at this point.Therefore350.0nm was adopted as the detecting wavelength for these two components.RESULTS:The average recovery and relative standard deviation of CIPRO were99.7%and1.4%respectively.The average recovery and relative standard de?viation of MNZ were100.7%and1.6%respectively.CONCLUSION:The method is accurate,rapid,simple and sensitive.This method can be used to control the quality of this preparation.
