Colorimetric Analysis of Norethindrone, Norethindrone Acetate, and Norgestrel in Oral Contraceptives [PDF]
Abstract A colorimetric method, based on reaction with blue tetrazolium, has been devised for the analysis of norethindrone, norethindrone acetate, and norgestrel. The technique is selective for these progestins, showing no interference from the estrogens ethinyl estradiol and mestranol, commonly found in oral contraceptives.
