INTRODUCTION TO UV METHODS
1. INTRODUCTION:
The spectrophotometer has well been called the workhorse of the modern laboratory. In particular, ultraviolet
and visible spectrophotometer is the method of choice in most laboratories concerned with the identification
and measurement of organic and inorganic compounds in a wide range of products and processes - in nucleic
acids and proteins, foodstuffs, pharmaceuticals and fertilizers, in mineral oils and in paint. In every branch of
molecular biology, medicine and the life sciences, the spectrophotometer is an essential aid to both research
and routine control. Modern spectrophotometers are quick, accurate and reliable and make only small demands
on the time and skills of the operator. However, the user who wants to optimize the functions of his instrument
and to be able to monitor its performance in critical areas will need to understand the elementary physics of the
absorption process as well as the basic elements of spectrophotometer design.

2. SPECTROSCOPY
Definition:
Spectroscopy is defined as the study of interaction of EMR with matter. It is used for analysis of wide range of
samples.
Spectrum:
A plot of the response as a function of wavelength or more commonly frequency is referred to as a spectrum.
Spectrometry:
It is the measurement of these responses and an instrument which performs such measurements is
a spectrometer or spectrograph,
Common types:
• Fluorescence spectroscopy
• X-ray spectroscopy and crystallography
• Flame spectroscopy
1- Atomic emission spectroscopy
2- Atomic absorption spectroscopy
3- Atomic fluorescence spectroscopy
• Plasma emission spectroscopy
• Spark or arc emission spectroscopy
• UV/VIS spectroscopy
• IR spectroscopy
• Raman spectroscopy
• NMR spectroscopy
• Photo thermal spectroscopy
• Thermal infra-red spectroscopy
• Mass Spectroscopy

3. UV- VISIBLE SPECTROSCOPY:


Spectroscopically, visible light behaves in a similar way as UV light. Hence, the techniques of UV
spectroscopy and Visible spectroscopy are studied together.
The UV-Visible spectroscopy is concerned with the UV & Visible regions of the EMR which ranges between
200-800nm.
UV wavelength range is 200-400 nm.
Visible region wavelength range is 400-800 nm.
PAGE

4. PRINCIPLE:
The principle involved in UV-Visible spectroscopy is absorption spectroscopy. The principle of UV-Visible
spectroscopy is based on the fundamental law of absorption called Beer-Lambert’s law. This law governs the
absorption of radiation by an absorbing medium (dilute solution).
Beer’s law:
According to Beer’s law, when a beam of monochromatic radiation passes through an absorbing medium, the
intensity radiation decreases exponentially with an increase in the concentration of the absorbing medium.
In other words, absorbance is directly proportional to the concentration of the absorbing
substance.
Lambert’s law:
According to Lambert’s law, the rate of decrease in the intensity of the radiation (I) with the thickness of the
medium (t) is directly proportional to the intensity of the incident light.
5. Instrumentation:
The different components present in the spectrophotometer are as follows:
5.1. Source of light:
In all sources excitation is done by passing electrons through a gas and these collisions between electrons and
gas molecules may result in electronic, vibrational and rotational excitation in the gas molecules. When the
pressure of the gas is low, only line spectra are emitted. But, if the pressure of gas is high, band spectra and
continuous spectra will be obtained. Examples - Tungsten lamp, Hydrogen discharge lamp, Xenon discharge
lamp, Deuterium lamps, Mercury arc etc.
Tungsten lamp:It can offer sufficient intensity.
Carbon arc lamp: It can provide high intensity light.
5.2. Filters and Monochromators:
These can convert the polychromatic light into monochromatic light.
Filters:
Filters are used to permit a certain band of wavelength. The simplest type of filter is the
absorption filter. Most commonly colored glass filters are used. They absorb a broad
portion of the spectrum (complementary colors) and transmit other portions (its own
color).
These are two types:
1. Absorption filters
2. Interference filters
Advantages

 The filters are inexpensive.


 They possess technical simplicity.

Disadvantages

 The filters are restricted to the visible region only.


 They are not very good wavelength selectors.
PAGE

 Not useful for research purposes as they allow broad bandwidth. So there are
more chances of deviation from Lambert beer’s law.

Monochromators: A monochromator is an optical device that is used to select a narrow


band of a wavelength of light. It may be a quartz prism or grating.

Uses of monochromators

 Monochromators are used for spectral scanning i.e. varying wavelength of


radiation over a range.
 They can be used for the UV-visible region

1. Prism type
2. Grating type
Prism types:
These two types:
a. Dispersive type of prisms
b. Littrow type of prisma
Grating types:
a. Diffraction grating
b. Transmission grating
5.3. Sample cells:
These are also called as ‘cuvettes.’
Sample containers or cuvettes may be made up of

1. Quartz
2. Borosilicate
3. Plastic

 Only quartz is transparent in both UV & visible regions (200-700nm range).


 Glass & plastic are suitable for the visible region only.
 Glass is not suitable for the UV region because it absorbs UV radiation i.e. it is not
transparent in the UV region.
 Plastic cells are not used for organic solvents.

Sample volume:

Small volume à<0.5 ml


Large volume à5-10 ml
Shape of cell: Cylindrical or rectangular cells
PAGE

Material:
For visible region colour corrected fused glass
For UV region cells which are made up with quartz.
5.4. Detectors:
In UV/Visible spectrophotometers these can be called as photometric detectors.
Types:
1. Photo voltaic cell or barrier layer cell
2. Photo emissive cells or photo tubes
3. Photo multiplier tubes
6. Conclusion:
By using this equipment can determine the lambda max, which is unique for each and every compound.

Description of a UV Spectrophotometer
A) Single-beam system

UV radiation is given off by the source. A convex lens gathers the beam of radiation and focuses it on the inlet
slit. The inlet slit permits light from the source to pass, but blocks out stray radiation. The light then reaches
the monochromator, which splits it up according to wavelength. The selected radiation from the
monochromator passes through the sample cell to the detector, which measures the intensity of the radiation
reaching it By comparing the intensity of radiation before end after it passes through the sample, it is possible
to measure how much radiation is absorbed by the sample at the particular wavelength used. The output of the
detector is usually recorded on graph paper.

B) Double-beam system

The radiation from the source is allowed to pass via a mirror system to the monochromator unit. The function
of the monochromator is to allow a narrow range of wavelengths to pass through an exit slit. The radiation
PAGE

coming out of the monochromator through the exit slit is received by the rotating sector which divides the
beam into two beams, one passing through the reference and the other through the sample cell.

After passing through the sample and reference cells, the light beams are focused on the detector. The output of
the detector is connected to a phase sensitive amplifier which responds to any change in transmission through
sample and reference. The phase sensitive amplifier transmits the signals to the recorder which is followed by
the movement of the pen on chart. The chart drive is coupled to the rotation of the prism and thus the
absorbance or transmittance of the sample is recorded as a function of wavelength.

INTRODUCTION TO HYPERTENSION

Key facts

 An estimated 1.28 billion adults aged 30–79 years worldwide have hypertension, most (two-thirds)
living in low- and middle-income countries
 An estimated 46% of adults with hypertension are unaware that they have the condition.
 Less than half of adults (42%) with hypertension are diagnosed and treated.
 Approximately 1 in 5 adults (21%) with hypertension have it under control.
 Hypertension is a major cause of premature death worldwide.
 One of the global targets for noncommunicable diseases is to reduce the prevalence of hypertension by
33% between 2010 and 2030.

Overview

Hypertension (high blood pressure) is when the pressure in your blood vessels is too high (140/90 mmHg or
higher). It is common but can be serious if not treated.

People with high blood pressure may not feel symptoms. The only way to know is to get your blood pressure
checked.

Things that increase the risk of having high blood pressure include:

 older age
 genetics
 being overweight or obese
 not being physically active
 high-salt diet
 drinking too much alcohol

Lifestyle changes like eating a healthier diet, quitting tobacco and being more active can help lower blood
pressure. Some people may still need to take medicines.
PAGE

Blood pressure is written as two numbers. The first (systolic) number represents the pressure in blood vessels
when the heart contracts or beats. The second (diastolic) number represents the pressure in the vessels when
the heart rests between beats.

Hypertension is diagnosed if, when it is measured on two different days, the systolic blood pressure readings
on both days is ≥140 mmHg and/or the diastolic blood pressure readings on both days is ≥90 mmHg.

Risk factors

Modifiable risk factors include unhealthy diets (excessive salt consumption, a diet high in saturated fat and
trans fats, low intake of fruits and vegetables), physical inactivity, consumption of tobacco and alcohol, and
being overweight or obese.

Non-modifiable risk factors include a family history of hypertension, age over 65 years and co-existing
diseases such as diabetes or kidney disease.

Symptoms

Most people with hypertension don’t feel any symptoms. Very high blood pressures can cause headaches,
blurred vision, chest pain and other symptoms.

Checking your blood pressure is the best way to know if you have high blood pressure. If hypertension isn’t
treated, it can cause other health conditions like kidney disease, heart disease and stroke.

People with very high blood pressure (usually 180/120 or higher) can experience symptoms including:

 severe headaches
 chest pain
 dizziness
 difficulty breathing
 nausea
 vomiting
 blurred vision or other vision changes
 anxiety
 confusion
 buzzing in the ears
 nosebleeds
 abnormal heart rhythm

If you are experiencing any of these symptoms and a high blood pressure, seek care immediately.

The only way to detect hypertension is to have a health professional measure blood pressure. Having blood
pressure measured is quick and painless. Although individuals can measure their own blood pressure using
automated devices, an evaluation by a health professional is important for assessment of risk and associated
conditions.

Treatment

Lifestyle changes can help lower high blood pressure. These include:

 eating a healthy, low-salt diet


 losing weight
PAGE

 being physically active


 quitting tobacco.

If you have high blood pressure, your doctor may recommend one or more medicines. Your recommended
blood pressure goal may depend on what other health conditions you have.

Blood pressure goal is less than 130/80 if you have:

 cardiovascular disease (heart disease or stroke)


 diabetes (high blood sugar)
 chronic kidney disease
 high risk for cardiovascular disease.

For most people, the goal is to have a blood pressure less than 140/90.

There are several common blood pressure medicines:

 ACE inhibitors including enalapril and lisinopril relax blood vessels and prevent kidney damage.
 Angiotensin-2 receptor blockers (ARBs) including losartan and telmisartan relax blood vessels and
prevent kidney damage.
 Calcium channel blockers including amlodipine and felodipine relax blood vessels.
 Diuretics including hydrochlorothiazide and chlorthalidone eliminate extra water from the body,
lowering blood pressure.

Prevention

Lifestyle changes can help lower high blood pressure and can help anyone with hypertension. Many who make
these changes will still need to take medicine.

These lifestyle changes can help prevent and lower high blood pressure.

Do:

 Eat more vegetables and fruits.


 Sit less.
 Be more physically active, which can include walking, running, swimming, dancing or activities that
build strength, like lifting weights.

o Get at least 150 minutes per week of moderate-intensity aerobic activity or 75 minutes per week
of vigorous aerobic activity.
o Do strength building exercises 2 or more days each week.
 Lose weight if you’re overweight or obese.
 Take medicines as prescribed by your health care professional.
 Keep appointments with your health care professional.

Don’t:

 eat too much salty food (try to stay under 2 grams per day)
 eat foods high in saturated or trans fats
 smoke or use tobacco
 drink too much alcohol (1 drink daily max for women, 2 for men)
 miss or share medication.
PAGE

Reducing hypertension prevents heart attack, stroke and kidney damage, as well as other health problems.

Reduce the risks of hypertension by:

 reducing and managing stress


 regularly checking blood pressure
 treating high blood pressure
 managing other medical conditions.

INTRODUCTION TO ANTIHYPERTENSIVE DRUGS


Antihypertensives are medications prescribed to treat hypertension, or high blood pressure. The
goal of antihypertensive therapy is to prevent the complications associated with high blood
pressure, such as stroke and heart attack. Studies have shown that reducing blood pressure by 5
mmHg can significantly lower the risk of stroke by 34% and the risk of ischemic heart disease
by 21%. Moreover, lowering blood pressure can also decrease the likelihood of developing
dementia, heart failure, and mortality from cardiovascular disease.

CLASSIFICATION OF ANTIHYPERTENSIVE DRUGS


A. Diuretic agents
a. Thiazide diuretics, hydrochlorothiazide, chlorothiazide.
b. Loop diuretics, furosemide, ethacrynic, bumetanide
c. Potassium sparing diuretics, spironolactone, amiloride.

B. Calcium channel blockers


Calcium channel blockers are medications that prevent calcium from entering muscle cells in the
walls of arteries.
a. Dihydropyridines:
 Amlodipine
 Cilnidipine
b. Non-Dihydropyridines:
 Verapamil
 Diltiazem

C. ACE inhibitors
Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) is an enzyme that plays a key role in the regulation of
blood pressure by converting angiotensin I to angiotensin II, a potent vasoconstrictor.
 Captopril
 Perindopril

D. Angiotensin II receptor antagonist


Angiotensin II receptor antagonists are drugs that inhibit the activation of angiotensin receptors
by blocking the binding of angiotensin II, a potent vasoconstrictor, to its receptors.
 Azilsartan
 Candesartan

E. Adrenergic receptor antagonists


 Beta blockers – acebutolol, atenolol, bisoprolol.
 Alpha blockers- doxazosin, indoramin, prazosin.
 Mixed Alpha + Bita blockers- bucindolol, labetalol.

F. Vasodilators
Vasodilators are medications that work by directly relaxing the smooth muscle of arteries, thereby making
it easier for blood to flow through them. They are typically reserved for use in hypertensive emergencies
or as a last resort when other medications have failed, and are often used in combination with other drugs
rather than as a standalone treatment.

G.Renin inhibitors
Renin inhibitors are a class of antihypertensive drugs that target the renin-angiotensin system by
inhibiting the enzyme renin, which catalyzes the conversion of angiotensinogen to angiotensin I.
Aliskiren is a renin inhibitor that has been approved for use in treating hypertension, and it is
PAGE

usually used as a first-line therapy for this condition. By inhibiting renin, aliskiren reduces the
production of angiotensin II, a potent vasoconstrictor, which leads to relaxation of blood vessels
and decreased blood pressure.

H.Aldosterone receptor antagonists:


 Eplerenone
 Spironolactone
 Clinical rational

 Amlodipine is a medication used to treat high blood pressure in adults and children aged 6
years and older. It can also be used to treat certain types of chest pain (angina) and coronary
artery disease, which is the narrowing of blood vessels that supply blood to the heart.
 Clinical studies suggest that amlodipine besylate is a well-tolerated drug for the treatment of
mild to moderate hypertension with a lower incidence of side effects.
 Amlodipine belongs to a class of medications known as calcium channel blockers, which
work by relaxing the blood vessels and reducing the workload on the heart, leading to a
decrease in blood pressure.
 By increasing the supply of blood to the heart, it also helps to control chest pain. When taken
regularly, amlodipine can effectively control chest pain.

INTRODUCTION TO ANALYTICAL METHOD VALIDATION


Validation is a documented evidence which gives high degree of assurance that a given procedure will
produce a product which comprises of pre-determined specifications and quality characteristics.
Validation is a basic requirement to ensure quality and reliability of the results for all analytical
applications.

The objective of validation of an analytical procedure is to demonstrate that it is suitable for its intended
purpose, determine by means of well-documented experimental studies.

Typical validation parameters are listed below.

 Linearity

 Range

 Accuracy

 Precision

 Specificity

 Limit of detection (LOD)

 Limit of Quantification(LOQ)

Linearity and Range

Linearity of an analytical method is its ability to produce results that are directly, proportional to
the concentration of analyte in samples. The range of the procedure is an expression of the
lowest and highest levels of analyte that have been demonstrated to be determinable with
acceptable precision, accuracy and linearity. These characteristics are determined by application
of the procedure to a series of samples having analyte concentration spanning the claimed range
of the procedure. When the relationship between response and concentration is not linear,
standardization may be provided by means of a calibration curve. ICH recommends that for the
establishment of linearity a minimum of 5 concentrations normally used.

Accuracy

Accuracy is the closeness of test results obtained by that method to the true value. In case of
assay of a drug substance accuracy may be determined by application of the analytical method to
an analyte of known purity (e.g. reference standard) or by comparison of the results of the
method with those of a second well characterized method, the accuracy of which has been stated
or defined. Accuracy is calculated as the percentage of recovery by the assay of the known
added amount of analyte in the sample, or as the difference between the mean and the accepted
true value, together with confidence intervals.
PAGE

The ICH documents recommended that accuracy should be assessed using a minimum of nine
determinations over a minimum of three concentrations levels, covering the specified range (i.e.,
three concentrations and three replicates of each concentration).

Precision

Precision is the degree of agreement among individual test results when the method is applied
repeatedly to multiple samplings of a homogenous sample. Precision of an analytical method is
usually expressed as the standard deviation (SD) or relative standard deviation (RSD)
(coefficient of variation) of a series of measurements.

Precision may be measure of either the degree of reproducibility or of repeatability of the


analytical method under normal operating conditions. Precision of ananalytical method is
determined by assaying a sufficient number of aliquots of a homogenous sample to be able to
calculate statistically valid estimates of SD or RSD. The ICH documents recommend that
repeatability should be assessed using a minimum of nine determinations covering the specified
range for the procedure.

Repeatability

The precision of the analytical method when repeated by the same analyst under set of
laboratory conditions, the only difference being the sample. The repeatability of a test procedure
is assessed by carrying out complete separate determinations on the separate samples of the same
homogeneous sample and this will provide a measure of the precision of the procedure under
normal laboratory operating conditions.

Reproducibility

When the procedure is carried out by different analysts in different laboratories using different
equipments, reagents and laboratory settings. The reproducibility of a test procedure is
determined by evaluating the samples from the same homogeneous sample, the analytical data
will provide information about the reproducibility of the test procedure under validation.

Specificity

The instruments ability to measure or identify or measure the analyte with out any interference
from sample matrix, impurities, precursors or degradation products.

Limit of detection (LOD)

It is the lowest amount of analyte in a sample that can be detected, but not necessarily quantitied
as an exact value, under the stated experimental conditions. The detection limit is usually
expressed as the concentration of analyte (e.g.percentage parts per million) in the sample.
Determined by the analysis of samples with known concentration of analyte and by establishing
the minimum level at which the analyte can be reliably detected.
PAGE

LOD 3.3 SD/slope of calibration curve

Where, SD-Standard deviation of intercepts

Limit of Quantification (LOQ)

It is the lowest amount of analyte in a sample that can be determined with acceptable precision
and accuracy under the stated experimental conditions. Quantification limitis expressed as the
concentration of analyte (e.g .percentage, parts per billion) in the sample. For instrumental and
non-instrumental methods, the quantification limit is generally determined by the analysis of
samples with known concentration of analyte and by establishing the minimum level at which
the analyte can be determined with acceptable accuracy and precision.

LOQ=10* SD/ slope of calibration curve

Where, SD =Standard deviation of intercepts

Accuracy

It was determined by calculating the recovery of Amlodipine by UV method .To fixed amount
of test 80%, 100% and 120% amount of standard was added and the amount of standard added
was calculated using equation. Known amount standard solutions of Amlodipine (0.024, 0.03,
0.036 ) were added to a pre-quantified sample solution of Amlodipine (0.03 mg/ml).Each
solution was scanned in triplicate and the percentage recovery was calculated by measuring the
responses and fitting these value into

Precision

The repeatability of the proposed method was determined by measuring the corresponding
responses 3 times for 100% test concentration of Amlodipine. The intra-day and inter-day
precisions of the proposed method was determined by measuring the corresponding responses 3
times on the same day and on 3 different days over a period of 1 week for 3different
