Analysis of antidiabetic mixtures: challenges and significance

Counterfeit drugs, exploring new dosage forms and developing analytical methods for total chromatographic separation of multi-component mixtures in less than 5 minutes are topics that are discussed throughout this book. An introduction to antidiabetic drugs is first given then a literature survey of analytical methods reported for the studied drugs is summarized to ensure novelty of the next chapter concerned with the development and validation of the new methods. During the development phase, many challenges were confronted and overcome; these challenges are well documented and scripted in an understandable way that can help and guide analysts and chromatographers. Meanwhile, significance arises for each mixture analysis, represented in different important and lively applications while imparting the most sought advantages for analytical methods.
