SOARES, Mônica Felts de La Roca et al. Development of new dissolution test and HPLC-RP method for anti-parasitic ornidazole coated tablets. Quím. Nova [online]. 2010, vol.33, n.2, pp. 478-481. ISSN 0100-4042.  http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S0100-40422010000200042.

This work aimed the development and validation of a new dissolution test for ornidazole coated tablets. The dissolution conditions were determined after testing Sink conditions, dissolution medium, apparatus, stirring speed, 24 h stability and medium filtration influence. The best conditions were paddle at a stirring speed of 75 rpm and 900 mL of 0.1 M HCl. A new HPLC quantification method was developed and validated. The dissolution test and quantification method showed to be adequate for their purposes and could be applied for quality control of ornidazole coated tablets, since there is no official monograph.
