Assay of Mecobalamin by HPLC Method: (In-house Specification) REAGENTS: Water Dibasic Sodium Phosphate Methanol Tartaric Acid. Distilled water Reagent Grade HPLC Grade Reagent Grade

Phosphate Buffer: Transfer 14.3 g of Dibasic sodium Phosphate into 1000 ml volumetric flask. Add 500 ml water to dissolve the contents & mix well. Make the volume up to the mark with the same solvent. Labeled this solution as A. Transfer 6 g of Tartaric acid into 1000 ml volumetric flask. Add 500 ml water to dissolve the contents & mix well. Make the volume up to the mark with the same solvent. Labeled this solution as B. Take 750 ml of solution A and add gradually solution B till the pH of the solution become 3.0. Mobile Phase: Mix 630 ml of phosphate buffer pH 3.0 & 370 ml of methanol. Stir for 15 minutes. Filter & degas the mobile phase at least for 20 minutes. Apparatus:

Weigh accurately 12 tablets and determine the average weight of one Transfer it into a 100 ml volumetric flask. Add 12 ml water and disintegrate tablets by sonications. Add mobile phase to make up volume to 100 ml. Stir this solution with magnetic stirrer for 5 minutes. Allow to stand for 10 minutes. Filter a portion through 0.45 syringe filter and then inject into the SYSTEM SUITABILITY: I. Inject five replicate injections of the standard solution and calculate the percent RSD (NMT 2%). II. Or Set the operating condition and purge the mobile phase until a steady base line is obtained. III. Inject working standard solution of Mecobalamin onto the column and obtain the chromatogram. IV. From Chromatogram, calculate the tailing factor/or resolution factor if required (Tailing factor: NMT 2 & NLT 1 is recommended) HPLC PROCEDURE: i. ii. Flush the column with water at a flow rate of 1.0 ml for at least 30 minutes. Set the conditions outlined under parameters.

Equilibrate the column with mobile phase until a steady baseline is obtained. After the column is equilibrated, inject the standard and sample solutions. At the end of the analysis, again flush the column with mobile phase for 20 minutes followed by water for 30 minutes and then with methanol for additional 30 minutes.
