evodopa, carbidopa and entacapone in pharmaceutical formulation were
simultaneously quantified by UV-Vis spectrophotometric studies and
artificial neural networks (ANN). Absorption spectra of three components
were recorded in 200-400 nm spectral region with an interval of 1 nm. The
calibration models were thoroughly evaluated at several concentration levels
using the spectra of synthetic ternary mixture. Two layer feed-forward neural
networks using the back-propagation algorithm (BP) has been employed for
building and testing models. The number of neurons in the hidden layer was
optimized. The relative standard deviation (RSD) for each component in the
real sample was calculated as 0.045, 0.486 and 0.214 for levodopa, carbidopa
and entacapone, respectively. The results showed a very good agreement
between true values and predicted concentration values and were compared
with the standard chromatographic method results. The proposed procedure is
a simple, precise and convenient method for the simultaneous determination
of levodopa, carbidopa and entacapone in commercial tablets
