High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) Method for Analysis of Benztropine methylsulfonate .
Benztropine is a medical drug used in treatment of patients with Parkinson’s disease. It works as an acetylcholine blocker decreasing muscle stiffness. Benztropine can be retained in HPLC on Primesep SB mixed-mode column by hydrophobic and anion-exchange properties. The isocratic method uses a mobile phase of acetonitrile (ACN) and water with sulfuric acid buffer and UV detection at 220 nm.
