Determination of fluoxymesterone, norethandrolone, prednisolone, and prednisone in tablets by differential pulse polarography. 1978

R N Yadav, and F W Teare

A differential pulse polarographic method for the determination of fluoxymesterone, norethandrolone, prednisolone, and prednisone in tablets is described. This method is more sensitive than dc polarography, and the measurement of diffusion current is greatly simplified. Sørensen phosphate buffer, pH 5.6, was used as the supporting electrolyte. No apparent interference was observed from tablet excipients; the method is rapid, simple, and relatively precise.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D009639	Norethandrolone	A synthetic hormone with anabolic and androgenic properties and moderate progestational activity.	Ethylestrenolone,Ethylnortestosterone,Nilevar
D011048	Polarography	An electrochemical technique for measuring the current that flows in solution as a function of an applied voltage. The observed polarographic wave, resulting from the electrochemical response, depends on the way voltage is applied (linear sweep or differential pulse) and the type of electrode used. Usually a mercury drop electrode is used.	DC Polarography,Pulse Polarography,Polarography, DC,Polarography, Pulse
