The method was found to be simple, rapid, accurate and economical in estimating antioxidant properties in the different tea products. A (0.0100 ± 0.0001) g well ground tea sample was extracted directly in 80% v/v methanol in distilled water. The precision of the method had an RSD% of 1.695 with a linear relation equation of Y = 200.7X + 5.25 (r2 = 0.997). The method proved to be a reliable and effective tool in analysis of anti-oxidant properties in varied tea cultivars and their processed products.展开更多

The dosing range was 2 - 10 μg/mL (for quinine sulfate in tablet), 4 - 12 μg/mL (for quinine bichlorhydrate in oral drop-metronidazole benzaote in oral suspension) and 15 - 35 μg/mL (for amoxicillin trihydrate in capsule). The validated methods were then applied in determining the content of some analogous medicines sold in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Thus, the proposed UV-Visible spectrophotometric methods are simple and suitable to quantify quinine, amoxicillin and metronidazole in different pharmaceutical forms.展开更多
