The simultaneous spectrophotometric determination of ceftazidime (CTZ) and sulbactam (SBT) in the presence of the overlapping spectra were accomplished with the partial least squares (PLS) and genetic algorithm-partial least square (GA-PLS) approaches.

Resolution of binary mixture of atorvastatin (ATV) and amlodipine (AML) with minimum sample pretreatment and without analyte separation has been successfully achieved using a rapid method based on partial least square analysis of UV–spectral data. Multivariate calibration modeling procedures, traditional partial least squares (PLS-2), interval partial least squares (iPLS) and synergy partial least squares (siPLS), were applied to select a spectral range that provided the lowest prediction error in comparison to the full-spectrum model. The simultaneous determination of both analytes was possible by PLS processing of sample absorbance between 220-425 nm. The correlation coefficients (R) and root mean squared error of cross validation (RMSECV) for ATV and AML in synthetic mixture were 0.9991, 0.9958 and 0.4538, 0.2411 in best siPLS models respectively. The optimized method has been used for determination of ATV and AML in amostatin commercial tablets. The proposed method are simple, fast, inexpensive and do not need any separation or preparation methods.

The simultaneous determination of sulfamethoxazole (SMX) and trimethoprim (TMP) mixtures in bovine milk by spectrophotometric method is a difficult problem in analytical chemistry, due to spectral interferences. By means of multivariate calibration methods, such as partial least square (PLS) regression, it is possible to obtain a model adjusted to the concentration values of the mixtures used in the calibration range. Genetic algorithm (GA) is a suitable method for selecting wavelengths for PLS calibration of mixtures with almost identical spectra without loss of prediction capacity using the spectrophotometric method. In this study, the calibration model based on absorption spectra in the 200-400 nm range for 25 different mixtures of SMX and TMP Calibration matrices were formed form samples containing 0.25-20 and 0.3-21 ?g mL-1 for SMX and TMP, at pH=10, respectively. The root mean squared error of deviation (RMSED) for SMX and TMP with PLS and genetic algorithm partial least square (GAPLS) were 0.242, 0.066 ?gmL-1 and 0.074, 0.027 ?g mL-1, respectively. This procedure was allowed the simultaneous determination of SMX and TMP in synthetic and real samples and good reliability of the determination was proved.

The generation of poly-hydroxilated transient species during the photochemical treatment of phenol usually impedes the spectrophotmetric monitoring of its degradation process. Frequently, the appearance of compounds such as pyrocatechol, hydroquinone and benzoquinone produces serious spectral interference, which hinder the use of the classical univariate calibration process. In this work, the use of multivariate calibration is proposed to permit the spectrophotometric determination of phenol in the presence of these intermediates. Using 20 synthetic mixtures containing phenol and the interferents, a calibration model was developed by using a partial least square regression process (PLSR) and processing the absorbance signal between 180 and 300 nm. The model was validated by using 3 synthetic mixtures. In this operation, typical errors lower than 3% were observed. Close correlation between the results obtained by liquid chromatography and the proposed method was also observed.
