    Abstract:
    A simple, sensitive and rapid spectrophotometric method for the determination of neostigmine by flow injection analysis (FIA) coupled with an ion associate extraction has been developed. The three-line manifold was assembled. Neostigmine(200 mul) was injected into a distilled water stream and the pH was adjusted to 10 with a borate-phosphate buffer solution. Then, the stream was mixed with the ion-pairing tetrabromophenolphthalein ethylester (TBPEH)-1,2-dichloroethane solution. After phase separation with a double membrane phase separator, absorbance was measured at 610 nm. A linear calibration graph was obtained between 1x10(-7) mol l(-1) and 5x10(-7) mol l(-1) of neostigmine. Up to 48 samples h(-1) could be processed with a relative standard deviation (R.S.D.) of 0.5% (n=5) for 4x10(-7) mol l(-1) neostigmine. The proposed system was applied to the simple, reproducible and rapid determination of neostigmine in commercial pharmaceuticals.
