The first derivative synchronous fluorescence spectroscopic (FDSFS) technique was applied at constant wavelength difference (∆λ = 120) for assessment of DPZ and TRZ at each other's zero-crossing point at 279 nm and 297 nm, respectively. The submitted technique was validated in accordance with ICH Q2 R1 guidelines and the linearity of the standard calibration curve was observed over the concentration range of 10-500 ng/ml for DPZ and 20-1,000 ng/ml for TRZ.

The proposed method relies on the chelation of ACV with nickel(II) in Britton Robinson buffer (pH 5) and measuring the resulting polarographic wave either in the direct current (DCt) or differential pulse (DPP) modes. The polarographic wave has been characterized as being catalytic reduction prewave.
