Abstract
A simple, rapid, precise and accurate isocratic reversed-phase HPLC method was developed and validated for the simultaneous determination of Atenolol (AT) and Losartan (LO) in commercial tablets. Chromatographic separation was achieved with ODS C-18 column (5ìm, 250 mm × 4.60 mm) using mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile : water : methanol (60:30:10) at a flow rate of 1 ml/min and UV detection at 235 nm. The retention time of Atenolol and losartan were observed at 2.18 min and 5 min respectively. The LOD for AT and LO were found to be 0.032 ìg/ml and 0.002 ìg/ml, respectively. In UV spectrophotometric method the lmax for Atenolol and Losartan was 275 nm and 232 nm respectively. The linearity of the proposed in UV spectrophotometric method was investigated in the range of 5-50 ìg/ml (r2 = 0.9942) for AT and (r2 = 0.995) for LO.
