The stability indicating capability of the method was proven by subjecting the drugs to stress conditions as per ICH recommended test conditions such as alkaline and acid hydrolysis, oxidation, photolysis, thermal degradation and resolution of the degradation products formed therein. The separation was obtained using a mobile phase composition at a ratio of 95:5 (v/v) of pH 5.0 buffer and methanol on Inertsil C18 column (250 × 4.0 mm, 4 μm) with UV detection at 220 nm at a flow rate of 1 ml/minute. The photodiode array detector was used for stress studies. The order of elution of peaks was Clavulanic acid followed by Amoxicillin. The linear calibration range was found to be 79.51 to 315.32 μg/ml for Amoxicillin and 17.82 to 67.90 μg/ml for Clavulanic acid. The Amoxicillin and Clavulanic acid were found to be stable in solution up to 24 hours. The method validation data showed excellent results for precision, linearity, specificity, limit of detection, limit of quantification and robustness. The present method can be successfully used for routine quality control and stability studies.展开更多
