Simultaneous determination of neomycin sulfate and polymyxin B sulfate by capillary electrophoresis with indirect UV detection.

A simple and rapid capillary electrophoresis method, with indirect UV detection, for the simultaneous determination of neomycin sulfate and polymyxin B sulfate in pharmaceutical formulations was developed. Critical parameters such as pH, buffer composition and concentration, voltage and injection time have been studied to evaluate, how they affect responses, such as resolution and migration times. Separation was performed on a fused silica capillary with 50 microm i.
