Abstract

Vitamins B 6 (VB 6) and B 12 (VB 12) were simultaneously determined in pharmaceutical preparations by using square wave voltametry (SWV) together with artificial neural networks (ANNs). Supporting electrolyte solution, pH and voltametric technique were optimised. The calibration set was built with several artificial samples containing both active ingredients and excipients. Deviations from linearity were observed for both analytes. It is probably due to interactions among the electro active components and competition by the electrode surface, fact that supports the use of ANNs. Recoveries when analysing a nine sample validation set, of 100.2 and 96.4 were calculated for VB 6 and VB 12, respectively. Commercial samples were analysed with reasonably good results considering the complexity of the mixture studied.
