Quantitative determination by absorbance measurement at UV 254 nm. The hRF values for (1) to (3) were 12, 30 and 42. Linearity was in the range of 0.5-9 ng/zone for (1), 1-10 ng/zone for (2) and 5-45 ng/zone for (3). LOD and LOQ were 0.1 and 0.4 ng/zone for (1), 0.2 and 0.6 ng/zone for (2) and 0.6 and 1.8 ng/zone for (3), respectively. Intra-day and inter-day precisions were below 2 % (n=3). Mean recoveries were around 101 % for (1) to (3). The HPTLC method was more simple, sensitive and economic than the HPLC method.
