The analysis of established HPLC technique for the separation and quantification of Capecitabine and its impurities are described. Samples are analysed by reverse phase (RP-HPLC) using stationary phase Inertsil ODS-3V (250 x 4.6mm, 5μm) column and the movable segment consisted of two channels. Channel A: 20mM Ammonium Formate buffer, Methanol and Acetonitrile in the proportion of (75:25:5 %volume/volume/volume) and Channel B: 20mM methanol, ammonium acetate buffer and Acetonitrile in the proportion of (80:15:5 %volume/volume/volume). The run velocity is 1.0 mL/min, the column oven was preserved at 40°C and sampler cooler oven was preserved 5°C, infused 10μL and wavelength fixed at 250nm UV-detection. The established HPLC technique was authenticated with admiration to specificity, precision, linearity, accuracy, LOD, LOQ and solution stability. Corroboration study compared as stated by ICH instruction.
