Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDetermination of Diloxanide Furoate and Metronidazole in Binary Mixture Using First Derivative of the Ratio-Spectra and High-Performance Liquid Chromatography-UV MethodsNora H. Al-ShaalanTwo methods are presented for simultaneous determination of diloxanide furoate and metronidazole. The first method depends on first derivative of the ratio-spectra by measurements of the amplitudes at 242.5 and 285.5 nm for diloxanide furoate and 225.5 and 300 nm for metrinidazole. Calibration graphs were established for 2-100 μg mL-1 for diloxanide furoate and 1-50 μg mL-1 for metronidazole.
