Content Determination of Ferric Iron and Ferrous Iron in Ferrous Succinate Tablets by Ion Chromatography-Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry / 中国药师

ABSTRACT

Objective: To establish a content determination method for ferric iron and ferrous iron in ferrous succinate tablets.Methods: Using a Dionex RFICTM protection column (4 mm×50 mm)and a Dionex RFICM Ion PacRCS5A analytical column (4 mm×250 mm), the eluent solution consisted of 7 mmol·L-1 dipicolinic acid, 66 mmol·L-1 potassium hydroxide, 5.6 mmol·L-1 potassium phosphate monobasic and 74 mmol·L-1 formic acid.The flow rate was 1.5 ml·min-1, the column temperature was 30.0℃ and the injection volume was 1.3 μl.Results: Fe3+ showed good linearity within the range of 0.5-15 μg·ml-1(r=1.000 0), Fe2+ showed good linearity within the range of 25-200 μg·ml-1(r=1.000 0), and the average recovery was 103.6%(RSD=2.7%, n=9)and 98.3%(RSD=1.9%, n=9), respectively.Conclusion: The method is simple, reliable and accurate, and can be used for the determination of Fe3+and Fe2+ in ferrous succinate tablets.
