Application


  • Development of green micellar HPLC-DAD method for simultaneous determination of some sulbactam combinations used in COVID-19 regimen: This study presents a green analytical methodology utilizing micellar high-performance liquid chromatography with diode-array detection (HPLC-DAD). It is specifically employed for the simultaneous determination of sulbactam and other compounds in COVID-19 treatment regimens, showcasing an application of ortho-Phosphoric acid in adjusting the pH of the mobile phase to enhance analytical performance and separation efficiency (Ragab GH, Saleh HM, Abdulla NM, Bahgat EA, 2023).

Other Notes

Concentrated phosphoric acid is approx. 85% H3PO4 (aqueous).
