Abstract

A reverse phase liquid chromatographic procedure is described for the simultaneous determination of oxfendazole [2-(methoxycarbonylamino)-5-phenylsulfinylbenzimidazole] and trichlorfon [(2,2,2-trichloro-1-hydroxyethyl)phosphonic acid dimethyl ester] in equine paste. The sample is extracted by sonication in methanol. Insoluble excipients are removed by centrifugation and an aliquot plus internal standard are diluted with dilution solvent (water-acetonitrile-phosphoric acid, 80 + 20 + 1). The samples are filtered and injected onto a Partisil-5 ODS-3 column with acetonitrile-0.01 M phosphate buffer pH 6.0 (20 + 80) as mobile phase. Method specificity is confirmed using an absorbance rationing technique. The method yields mean recoveries of 100.9 and 100.0% for trichlorfon and oxfendazole, respectively. Dependence of chromatographic performance characteristics on mobile phase organic content, pH, and buffer concentration is also reported.
