DETERMINATION AND VALIDATION OF RP-HPLC METHOD FOR THE ESTIMATION OF MIRABEGRON IN TABLET DOSAGE FORM

Abstract

Objective: A reversed phase liquid chromatography was determined and validated for the estimation of Mirabegron in tablet dosage form.Methods: The validation study of RP-HPLC showed a simple, rapid, accurate, precise, reproducible results by using a stationary phase: Waters Acquity HSS T-3 C18 (100 × 2.1 mm, 1.7μm and Mobile Phase-Potassium di-hydrogen phosphate: acetone in the ratio (40:60 v/v) at PH6.0±0.02. Detection is carried out at 243 nm using UV detector.Results: The total chromatographic analysis time per sample was about 6 min with Mirabegron eluting at a retention time of 2.754. Tailing factor obtained from the standard injection is 1.6. Theoretical Plates obtained from the standard injection is 2736.7. The flow rate is 1 ml/min and linearity in the concentration range of 30-70μg/ml (R2=0.999). The precision was 0.4% the intermediate precision was 0.08%. The deliberately varied chromatographic conditions in the concentration range for the evaluation of robustness is 10-50 µg/ml, (n=3). The limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantitation (LOQ) for Mirabegron were 0.01µg/ml and 0.05µg/ml respectively. The % recovery is 99.8 % with % R. SD of 0.09. The results proved that the optimized HPLC method fulfills these requirements within the ICH accepted limits.Conclusion: The high recovery and low relative standard deviation confirm the suitability of the proposed method for the determination of Mirabegron in tablet dosage form.
