Analysis of Voglibose in Pharmaceutical Formulations by HPLC with Post-Column Derivatization
Voglibose is an Alpha-Glucosidase inhibitor widely used for the treatment of diabetes. Alpha-glucosidase inhibitors are agents that delay the glucose absorption at the intestinal level and thereby prevent sudden surge of glucose after a meal. Voglibose is the safest and most effective drug of its class.

Table I: Repeatability studies for different concentration levels
Since Voglibose has no UV chromophore, post-column deriv-atization is employed to produce a fluorescent derivative.

This abstract describes a very sensitive and robust analytical method for the analysis of Voglibose in pharmaceutical tablets. Simple sample preparation and fast analysis time allow for using this method in high throughput environments.
