One of the assurances of pharmaceutical tablet's quality, effectivity, and safety is the dissolution test, which is commonly known by pharmaceutical manufacturers. Conventionally, this test is performed by simulating the release rate of a drug using a Dissolution Tester, which mimics the human gastrointestinal condition. As stated by the current compendial for tablet dosage form, the dissolution rate is mandatory, with no exception for Metformin HCl tablets. This laboratory method is often time-consuming, unsafe for organic reagent exposure, and produces waste. This problem requires rapid, simple, and nondestructive technologies, hence having powerful analytical performance. One of the technologies that is widely used is Near Infrared (NIR) spectroscopy. This study utilized the NIR spectrum as a predictor to generate a mathematical model using Partial Least Square Regression (PLS-2) to build a dissolution rate model for the Metformin HCl tablet, which uses the Farmakope Indonesia IV <1231> (FI-IV) dissolution method as the compendial reference method. The PLS-2 model was built, which shows the low difference between SEC and SECV in each sampling point and a good correlation in the coefficient of determination (R2) of each point's time of dissolution within 0.900 to 0.953. The challenge test was performed to prove the predictability of the PLS-2 model with NIR against the actual reference FI-IV method using differential and similarity Factors (f2 & f1), enabling real-time release testing (RTRT).
