A method for the determination of carbimazole involving its reaction with i
odine in an alkaline medium is presented. In volumetric titration with pote
ntiometric end-point detection the range of determination is 30-500 mu mol
(5.6-93 mg). In coulometric titration using biamperometric end-point detect
ion, 0.5-20 mu mol (0.09-3.7 mg) of carbimazole was successfully determined
. The coulometric titration was applied to the determination of carbimazole
in tablets.
