High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) Method for Analysis of Ivermectin B1a .
Ivermectin is an anti-parasitic drug with the chemical formula C48H74O14 . It is often used to treat or prevent parasites in animals and humans. In dogs, it is routinely used to treat heartworm, though, certain breeds, can be severely poisoned by this medication.

Ivermectin can be retained and separated on the Primesep 100 mixed-mode column using an isocratic analytical method with a simple mobile phase of water, acetonitrile (MeCN), and sulfuric acid (H2SO4) buffer. This analysis method can be UV detected at 250 nm.
