Received: 13 January 2016 Revised: 15 February 2016 Accepted: 20 February 2016 Objective: A simple, accurate, sensitive and precise Zero order and First order Ultraviolet spectrophotometric method
has been developed for the determination of Metformine HCL in bulk dosage form. Materials and
methods The
solutions of standard and sample were prepared in methanol. In the UV specrophotometric method, the quantitative determination of the drug was carried for zero order at 234nm and rst order at 246nm, the linearity range was found to respectively. Results: The calibration graphs constructed at their wavelength of
determination were found to be linear for zero and rst derivative spectrophotometric methods. The proposed methods have been extensively validated statistically that included parameters such as linearity, accuracy, precision, LOD, LOQ, recovery and robustness. There was no signicant difference between the performance of the proposed method regarding the mean values and standard deviations.
Conclusion The described methods can be readily utilized for
analysis of pharmaceutical formulation.

In UV spectroscopic method, the zero and first order spectra were utilized for developing the equations for analysis. Metformin HCL showed maximum absorbance at 234 nm and 246 nm for zero and first order derivative spectroscopy respectively. The normal spectra were derivatized into first order derivative, using UV software of instrument, where Δλ = 2. The amplitudes of the corresponding troughs were measured at 246 nm (Table 1).
