Abstract

Simple, accurate and rapid Spectrophotometric method was developed for the estimation of ofloxacin in tablet dosage form. The method is based on the absorption of electromagnetic radiation by cefixime at the maximum wavelength at 294 nm in 0.1M Hydrochloric acid as solvent. Beer's law was obeyed in the concentration range of 10–80 μg/ml. The percentage assay for commercial formulation was found to be 100.02±0.82.Recovery value was found to be 99.95±0.54.
