ABSTRACT

Objective:To establish a method for the determination of related substances in erythromycin ophthalmic ointment. Methods:The extraction method was established and optimized. An HPLC gradient elution method was used for the determination of related substances in erythromycin ophthalmic ointment. Results: One step extraction with PBS (pH 7.0) - methanol(1 1) had promising effect. After the method validation, it was proved that the method could be used to determine the related substances in eryth-romycin ophthalmic ointment. Conclusion:The method established in the paper provides a better analytical extraction and determina-tion method for the quality control of erythromycin ophthalmic ointment.
