ABSTRACT

A new microbiological method was developed for analysis of voriconazole tablets using Candida albicans as test microorganism. Various media, species and conditions were used to optimize the diffusion test. A prospective validation of the system showed adequate linearity (0.995), accuracy (RSD<2%) and consistency (mean recovery= 101.77%). High performance liquid chromatography was selected as a tool of comparison for evaluating voriconazole. Results of both the microbiological and HPLC methods have been compared with the student t-test and the voriconazole content determined by both methods has shown strong correlation. The developed microbiological analytical method provides true indication of biological activity and can be used in dosage forms for routine quality control analysis of voriconazole.
