Keywords: A fast, sensitive and reliable green micellar liquid chromatographic method has been developed and validated
Metoprolol for simultaneous determination of metoprolol (MET) and amlodipine (AMD). Separation was performed on X-
Amlodipine Bridge ODS column (150 × 4.6 mm, 5 μm particle size) using a micellar mobile phase consisting of 100 mM
Green micellar liquid chromatography sodium dodecyl sulfate, 20 mM sodium dihydrogen phosphate buffer pH 3.0 and 10% v/v n-butanol. The
Fluorescence
fluorescence detector was set at 275/ 303 nm (excitation/ emission) for MET and 364/ 455 nm (excitation/

emission) for AMD. A linear response was obtained over the ranges of 0.1–10 μg/mL and 0.2–2 μg/mL for MET
and AMD, respectively. The method reached limits of detection of 20 ng/mL for MET and 50 ng/mL for AMD.
The proposed method was successfully employed for the determination of the two drugs in their combined
pharmaceutical dosage form and in addition, it was extended for the determination of MET in spiked human
plasma. Furthermore, the green character of the developed method was evaluated using the new tool “green
analytical procedure index (GAPI)”. The developed method was verified to be an excellent green method.
