Abstract
The present work describes the methodology and validation of gas chromatography with flame ionization (FID) and mass spectrometric (MS) detection after derivatization with N-Methyl-N-(trimethylsilyl)trifluoroacetamide (MSTFA) for determination of atenolol with an internal standard (metoprolol) in pharmaceutical preparations. The linearity was established over the concentration range of 0.5–20 μg/mL for GC/FID and 12.5–500 ng/mL for GC/MS method. The intra- and inter-day relative standard deviation was less than 4.72 and 5.80%, respectively. Limit of quantification was determined as 500 ng/mL and 12.5 ng/mL for GC/FID and GC/MS, respectively. No interference was found from tablet excipients at the selected assay conditions. Developed GC/FID and GC/MS methods in this study are accurate, sensitive, and precise and can be easily applied to Tensinor tablet as pharmaceutical preparation.
