Desarrollo de un método analítico para la determinación de ciprofloxacino, diclofenaco, paracetamol y carbamazepina por Cromatografía de Líquidos de Alta Resolución
Palabras clave:
Cromatografía, contaminantes emergentes, fármacos.Resumen
Los medicamentos utilizados en el presente estudio se caracterizan por ser comúnmente usados en México para tratar dolores articulares (diclofenaco), fiebre (paracetamol), infecciones bacterianas (ciprofloxacino) y epilepsia (carbamazepina). La Cromatografía Liquida de Alta Resolución (HPLC, por sus siglas en inglés) ha sido reportados para el análisis de diversos compuestos presentes en fluidos biológicos y ambientales. El objetivo del estudio fue desarrollar un método rápido y sencillo para la determinación de los medicamentos anteriormente mencionados en muestras de agua. Para lo cual se empleó el método de HPLC con detección ultravioleta a 277 nm, fase móvil isocrática y un rango de cuantificación de 1 a 50 μg∙mL-1. Los resultados mostraron tiempos de retención de 6.49, 8.45, 9.56 y 8.56 minutos para el diclofenaco, ciprofloxacino, paracetamol y carbamazepina respectivamente en la misma longitud de onda. La precisión y exactitud fueron superiores al 95% y el tiempo total de elución fue de 12 minutos por muestra. Se logró desarrollar e implementar un método analítico para la determinación de diclofenaco, ciprofloxacino, paracetamol y carbamazepina en agua, lo suficientemente sensible, exacto y reproductible, con un grado de error menor al 5%, lo cual lo vuelve adecuado para ser usado en posteriores estudios.
