Abstract

This method has been developed by measuring the absorbance of Gemcitabine HCL at 254 nm (pH 3.0 – 10.9).   The method is simple, accurate and precise, giving linearity in the range of 14 – 34 μg/mL for Gemcitabine HCL with R2= 0.999 (n= 6).  The method was employed in testing the concentration of Gemcitabine HCL in marketed formulations, and the results were found in agreement with the labeled amount.
