Description

· High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) Method for Analysis of Hydrocortisone · Hydrocortisone is an organic compound with the molecular formula C 21 H 30 O 5 . · Properties: Appearance: Typically a white to practically white, odorless, crystalline powder. · Molecular weight: ~362.5 g/mol · Solubility: Soluble in organic solvents like ethanol.

Uses: A corticosteroid medication used to treat various conditions by reducing inflammation and suppressing the immune system.

Hydrocortisone can be retained and analyzed using the Newcrom CN2 stationary phase column. The analysis utilizes an isocratic method with a simple mobile phase consisting of water, acetonitrile (MeCN), and phosphoric acid. Detection is performed using UV at 240 nm.
