Abstract
Objective: A simple, novel, sensitive, and rapid high-performance thin-layer chromatographic (HPTLC) method has been developed and validated for quantitative determination of fenofibrate in bulk and formulations.Methods: The chromatographic development was carried out on HPTLC plates precoated with silica gel 60 F254 using a single solvent dichloromethane as a simple mobile phase. Densitometric detection was carried out at 292 nm.Results: Rf value of drug was found to be 0.33±0.02. The method was validated as per International Conference on Harmonization Guideline with respect to linearity, accuracy, precision, and robustness. The calibration curve was found to be linear over a range of 20–400° ng band−1° with a regression coefficient of 0.999. The method has proved high sensitivity and specificity.Conclusion: Proposed densitometric method was found to be new, simple, and economic for routine quantification of fenofibrate in bulk and pharmaceutical formulation.
