Resumo

A capillary electrophoresis method was developed for the first time and optimized for the
determination of paracetamol, pseudoephedrine, dextromethorphan, chlorpheniramine,
4-aminophenol and ephedrine in tablet formulation. Optimum electrophoretic conditions were
achieved by using a background electrolyte of 75 mmol L-1 sodium borate buffer at pH 8.0, a
capillary temperature of 30°C, a separation voltage of 30 kV and a pressure injection of the sample
at 50 mbar for 10 s. Calibration graphs showed a good linearity with a coefficient of determination
(R2
) of at least 0.999 for all compounds. Intraday and interday precision (expressed as relative
standard deviation (RSD) %) were lower than 1.39% for capillary electrophoresis method. The
developed method was demonstrated to be simple and rapid for the determination of paracetamol,
pseudoephedrine, dextromethorphan, chlorpheniramine, 4-aminophenol and ephedrine in tablet
formulation providing recoveries in the range between 99.62 and 100.57% for all analytes.
