Summary

A new, simple, and accurate micellar electrokinetic chromatographic (MEKC) method is described for quantification of hydrocortisone, hydrocortisone hemisuccinate, hydrocortisone acetate, mystatin, oxytetracycline, Zn-bacitracin, polymyxin B, and lidocaine in ocular and cutaneous pharmaceutical products. The separation was performed at 25°C and 25 kV, with 15mm phosphate +15mm borate buffer, pH 8.2, and 60mm sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) in 10∶1 (%,v/v) methanol-water as background electrolyte. Under these conditions the analysis time is approximately 23 min. The method has been used for quantification of these compounds in different commercial pharmaceutical products and gave good results when compared with reference spectrophotometric and HPLC methods.
