    REVIEW ARTICLE Am. J. PharmTech Res. 2019; 9(01) ISSN: 2249-3387 Journal home page: http://www.ajptr.com/ Colorimetric Approaches To Drug Analysis And Applications – A Review Sowjanya Gummadi*, Mohana Kommoju Department of Pharmaceutical Analysis, Institute of Pharmacy, GITAM (Deemed to be University), Visakhapatnam-530045, Andhra Pradesh, India ABSTRACT The main purpose of this review is to highlight the importance of colorimetric approaches to drug analysis both in dosage forms as well as biological samples. Colorimetric methods using colorimetric reagents are highly sensitive, specific and an easy way of determining various analytes in a variety of matrices within a short time. The colorimetric procedures discussed are statistically validated and reported in various quality control laboratories. Hence in the present review significance of colorimetric procedures, various reagents used along with principles and applications are mentioned. Key words: Colorimetric approaches, sensitive, matrices, quality control, applications. *Corresponding Author Email: [email protected] Received 01 November 2018, Accepted 23 December 2018 Please cite this article as: Gummadi S et al., Colorimetric Approaches To Drug Analysis And Applications – A Review.

Color can be produced by any substance when it binds with color forming chromogens. The difference in color intensity results in difference in the absorption of light. The intensity of color is directly proportional to the concentration of the compound being measured.1 Wavelength between 380 nm to 780 nm forms the visible band of light in electromagnetic spectrum.

Its empirical formula is C10H13NO4, with a molecular weight of 211.22, and its structural formula is: Methyldopa is a white to yellowish white, odorless fine powder, and is soluble in water. ALDOMET is supplied as tablets, for oral use, in three strengths: 125 mg, 250 mg, or 500 mg of methyldopa per tablet. Inactive ingredients in the tablets are: calcium disodium edetate, cellulose, citric acid, colloidal silicon dioxide, D&C Yellow 10, ethylcellulose, guar gum, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, iron oxide, magnesium stearate, propylene glycol, talc, and titanium dioxide. CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY ALDOMET is an aromatic-amino-acid decarboxylase inhibitor in animals and in man. Although the mechanism of action has yet to be conclusively demonstrated, the antihypertensive effect of methyldopa probably is due to its metabolism to alpha-methylnorepinephrine, which then lowers arterial pressure by stimulation of central inhibitory alpha-adrenergic receptors, false neurotransmission, and/or reduction of plasma renin activity. Methyldopa has been shown to cause a net reduction in the tissue concentration of serotonin, dopamine, norepinephrine, and epinephrine. Only methyldopa, the L-isomer of alpha-methyldopa, has the ability to inhibit dopa decarboxylase and to deplete animal tissues of norepinephrine. In man the antihypertensive activity appears to be due solely to the L-isomer. About twice the dose of the racemate (DL-alpha-methyldopa) is required for equal antihypertensive effect. Methyldopa has no direct effect on cardiac function and usually does not reduce glomerular filtration rate, renal blood flow, or filtration fraction.
