Eco-friendly and stability-indicating HPTLC method for the estimation of Carvedilol in pharmaceutical dosage forms: A greenness assessment using NEMI scale, AGREE, and White Analytical Chemistry

Green Analytical Chemistry
A robust, sensitive, and ecofriendly stability-indicating HPTLC method was developed for the quantification of carvedilol (Coreg tablets) and validated. The method was optimized to avoid carcinogenic solvents, employing a mobile phase of toluene, isopropanol, ammonia (7.5:2.5:0.1, v/v/v), ensuring sharp and symmetric peaks with minimal tailing.
