Abstract
High performance liquid chromatography was employed in the assay of reserpine in tablet formulations. A reverse-phase RP-8 column was used and reserpine was separated from its major degradation products and quantitated by peak-height measurement using ultraviolet detection at 254 nm and fluorescence at 330 nm excitation. Tablets analysed were within the official limits even after more than ten years following manufacture.
