Description

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

Benzocaine is a local anesthetic with the chemical formula C 9 H 11 NO 2 . It is primarily used to treat pain in the mouth, threat, and ears. On occasion it is also used on sunburns and hemorrhoids. It is also commonly used as a ingredient ibn other medications. You can find detailed UV spectra of Benzocaine and information about its various lambda maxima by visiting the following link .

Benzocaine 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 sulfuric acid as a buffer. Detection is performed using UV.
