Assay
Mobile phase
, 2,4-Dinitrofluorobenzene reagent, Tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane reagent, Standard preparation, Derivatization procedure, Resolution solution, and Chromatographic systemProceed as directed in the Assay under Tobramycin.
Assay preparation
Transfer an accurately weighed quantity of Tobramycin Sulfate, equivalent to about 50 mg of tobramycin (C18H37N5O9), to a 250-mL volumetric flask, dissolve in and dilute with water to volume, and mix.
Procedure
Proceed as directed for Procedure in the Assay under Tobramycin. Calculate the quantity, in µg, of tobramycin (C18H37N5O9) in each mg of the Tobramycin Sulfate taken by the formula:
250(CE / W)(rU / rS)
in which the terms are as defined therein.
