Determinação turbidimétrica em fluxo de cloridrato de fluoxetina em formulações farmacêuticas Flow-injection turbidimetric determination of fluoxetine hydrochloride in pharmaceutical formulations

Abstract

A simple, accurate and precise flow-injection turbidimetric procedure for the determination of fluoxetine hydrochloride in pharmaceutical formulations is reported. The procedure is based on the precipitation of chloride of fluoxetine hydrochloride with silver nitrate solution and the yielded insoluble AgCl(s) was monitored at 420 nm. The analytical curve was linear in the fluoxetine hydrochloride concentration range 3.0 x 10-5 - 5.0 x 10-4 mol L-1 with a detection limit of 10 µmol L-1 and, a sample throughout of 60 h-1.
