| Determination of the content of Bicalutamide tablets by high performance liquid chromatography (ВЭЖХ) |
Using SHIMADZU CLC-ODS (150mm´6.0mm, 5μ) column. 0.1% potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution-acetonitrile (50:50) as the mobile phase, detecting at 272nm wavelength. Результат: bicalutamide had a good linear relationship (r=0.9995) when the concentration in the range of 0.05mg*ml-1~0.20mg*ml-1. The average recovery was 99.5%, and RSD=0.9% (n=9 ) Заключение: The method is simple, good accuracy and high precision. |
| Bicalutamide tablets |
Bicalutamide tablet is a non-steroidal androgen antagonist, which competes androgen receptor with the androgen, blocks cellular uptake of androgen, and inhibits the binding of androgens to the target organ. It binds with the androgen receptor that forms receptor complex, which enters the nucleus and combined with the nucleoprotein, consequently inhibiting tumor cell growth. It can be as a first-line drug for palliative treatment of advanced prostate cancer.
