Synthesis and characterization of cellulose acetate (CA) has been conducted. The cellulose used in this study was commecial a-cellulose in 92% content. All the CA products were analyzed by FTIR spectrometers. The determination of cellulose content was done using standart method of TAPPI T-203, while the determination of the degree of substitution (DS) was based on SNI 0444:2009 method. Conventional acetylation of cellulose was performed using gacial acetic acid, anhydride acetic acid, and sulfuric acid. The acetylation at 25 °C for 2.5 hours gave the DS of 1.482 and at 40 °C for 5 hours gave the higher DS 2.295.

Background: Curcumin is a major ingredient in turmeric (Curcuma longa L., Zingiberaceae), which has important activities such as anti-tumor, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-ischemia, protection of gastric mucosa etc,. Curcumin can be considered as a biological marker of turmeric and turmeric products. Objectives: Developing an HPLC method for quantification of curcumin in turmeric powder and turmeric - honey ball pills; applying this method for products on the market. Materials and methods: turmeric powder and turmeric - honey ball pills collected in Thua Thien Hue province. After optimization process, the method was validated and applied to evaluate the content of curcumin. Results: The chromatography analysis was performed with: Zorbaz Eclipse XDB-C18 (150 × 4.6 nm; 5 µm); Mobile phase: acetonitril: 2% acetic acid (45:55), Flow rate was kept constant at 1.0 ml/min; Detector PDA (420 nm). The method was validated for the HPLC system compatibility, specificity, linearity range, precision and accuracy; the recovery greater than 98%. Conclusion: The developed HPLC method can determine curcumin in turmeric powder and turmeric - honey ball pills. Key words: Curcumin, turmeric powder, turmeric-honey ball pills, quantitative determination, HPLC

The aim of this study was to develop and validate a rapid, accurate, and exact method for the quantitative determination of famotidine in pharmaceutical products. The HPLC analyses were performed by using a mobile phase containing methanol:1% acetic acid solution=30:7 (v/v), at a flow rate of 0.4 mL/min.The total time of the method was 10 min, and the retention time of famotidine was 4.16 min. The detection was evaluated at l=267 nm. The method has been validated by using different validation parameters. The linear response of the detector for famotidine peak area was observed at concentrations ranging from 0.1 to 0.0001 mg mL-1 , resulting in a correlation coefficient of 0.99998. The values of the detection limit and of the quantification limit are 0.00048 mg mL-1 and 0.00148 mg mL-1, respectively. The method proposed allowed accurate (with a relative error of less than 2%) and precise (RSD values less than 2.0%) determination of famotidine content in pharmaceutical products and can be used for its rapid quantitative analysis.
