Description

· High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) Method for Analysis of Atorvastatin , Lipitor

Atorvastatin is a prescription medication that has C 33 H 35 FN 2 O 5 as its molecular formula. It is typically used to lower cholesterol, therefore reducing the risk of heart disease. Grapefruit juice can interfere with this medication.

Atorvastatin , Lipitor can be retained and analyzed using the Newcrom R1 stationary phase column. The analysis utilizes an isocratic method with a simple mobile phase consisting of water and acetonitrile (MeCN) with a phosphoric acid buffer. Detection is performed using UV.
