Description

· High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) Method for Analysis of Metoprolol

Metoprolol is a beta-blocker that is used to treat high blood pressure, angina, and heart failure by blocking beta-1 adrenergic receptors. At it’s most effective, it can lower the risk of death after a heart attack.

Metoprolol can be retained and analyzed using the Primesep 200 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.
