To evaluate the similarity and proximity of the formulation of sample and reference tablets in this comparison, the similarity factor is calculated according to the following formula
F2=50*log {[1+ (1/n) Σ (Rt-Tt) 2]-0.5*100}
N=Number of time points
Rt&Tt: The cumulative percentage dissolved at each of selected n time points of the reference & test respectively
Results
The value obtained should be in the range of (50-100) percent
Difference factor
To investigate the difference between the percentage of dissolution and release of sample and reference tablets in this comparison, the Difference factor is calculated according to the following formula
F1=(ΣIRt-TtI/ΣRt)*100
Results
The value obtained should be in the range of (0-15) percent
