Derivative spectrophotometric assay methods for dextromethorphane hydrobomide in twelve cough tablets containing single compound as a well as its combination have been performed. Spectrogram of normal spectrophotometry, is a plot of absorbance A against wavelength, (lambda), in derivative technique, the plot is transformed into a plot of dA/dlambda vs lambda for first derivative, and d2A/dlambd…
A potassium bromide pellet method in the infrared spectroscopy has been studied to analyze the metastable polymorph of chloramphenicol palmitate quantitativity. By minimizing of the milling time by vibrating mill under the 5 tons of the pellet compression, the transition process of chloramphenicol palmitate crystal form could be avoided. Through the selection of the two peak absorbance ratio of…
Typhoid fever is still a health problem in tropic country like Indonesia and in Surabaya the disease is regarded as an endemic. Up to date the spreading pattern of the disease in that city is unknown. To determine the pattern, a cohort study was carried out in 2 subdistricts of Surabaya : Gubeng and Tambaksari for a period of two years (1992-1993). The first year is aimed for observation and ca…
