RECENT DEVELOPMENT IN ULTRAVIOLET SPECTROPHOTOMETRY THROUGH THE LAST DECADE (2006–2016): A REVIEW

Abstract

<p>Several techniques have been proposed for treatment of spectrophotometric data, with the objective of extracting the largest amount of analytical information from spectra composed of unresolved bands. The instrumental development and analytical applications of UV regions absorption spectrophotometry produced in the last 10 y (since 2006) are reviewed. The methods were classified according to the spectra data used, including zero order absorption, derivative and ratio amplitudes. The proposed methods were applied to solve different complex pharmaceutical mixtures and the obtained results were accepted when compared to other reported methods. </p>
