Placebo preparation:
Transfer 900 mL of dissolution medium in the dissolution vessel carefully and allow the medium to equilibrate to a temperature of 37±0.5°C. weigh and add placebo equivalent to one tablet in one of dissolution vessel and operate the apparatus at 75 RPM for specified time interval. Withdraw 10 ml of the sample from dissolution vessel. Further, filter the dissolution solution through nylon membrane filter 0.45µm, PTFE membrane filter 0.45 µm and Whatman filter paper separately to get clear solution. Dilute 5 mL of the above test solution in to 10 ml volumetric flasks, dilute to volume with diluent and Mix well.

Sample solution Efficiency test:
Transfer 900 mL of dissolution medium in the dissolution vessel carefully and allow the medium to equilibrate to a temperature of 37±0.5°C. weigh and add 250 mg of Azithromycin API and placebo equivalent to one tablet in one of dissolution vessel and operate the apparatus at 75 RPM for specified time interval.
Withdraw 10 ml of the sample from dissolution vessel. Further, filter the dissolution solution through nylon membrane filter 0.45µm, PTFE membrane filter 0.45 µm and Whatman filter paper separately to get clear solution.
Prepare sample solution with three procedures after filteration as follows,
- Analyze without sonication.
- Ultrasonicate for 5 minutes.
- Ultrasonicate for 10 minutes.
Further, dilute 5 mL of each of the above sample solution in to 10 ml volumetric flasks, dilute to volume with diluent and Mix well.
