What is the diffeence between assay and uniformity of content

Answer Posted / suresh darling

assay means the total amount of API present in that tablet.
as per usp 97 to 103, as per IP 95 TO 100.

formula: area of sapmle/area of standard* wt of sample/x *
y/ wt of stanadrd * purity/100 * a.wt/l.c *100.


uniformity of content means in that we have taken 10
samples at a time we check the API in that sample wether it
is uniform or not.

formula: area of sapmle/area of standard* wt of sample/x *
y/ wt of stanadrd * l.c/100.

In BP2013, Loperamid HCl monograph. Assay by titration with 0.1N sodium hydroxide using hydrocloric acid 0.01N and reading the volume added between the 2 points of inflexion. I have a question that if the diluent solvent is ethanol is certainly consumed a amount of volume of titrant, so this volume must be eliminated on the result calculation or not apart from first point which is subtracted above.
