According to a literature survey, no UV technique for the estimation of umifenovir has yet been established; hence, there is an imperative need for a simple analytical method. Additionally, we developed an alternative reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) method for the estimation of umifenovir. UV spectrophotometry was carried out at 223 nm absorption maxima using the solvent methanol. A concentration range of 2–12 μg/mL was found to obey Beer’s law, with a correlation coefficient (<i>r</i>²) of 0.9995. A C-18 column (250 mm, 4.6 μm, 5 μm) was used for chromatographic separation using the isocratic mode. The mixture consisted of acetonitrile: 0.1% trimethylamine (pH adjusted to 2.7 by the addition of orthophosphoric acid) 60:40 as the mobile phase with a flow rate of 1 mL/min. The temperature was kept at 25°C, and detection at 223 nm was performed using a PDA detector. The estimated percentage of the drug was close to 100%, corresponding to the label claim of the tablet made in the laboratory.

In the absence of glucose, it was mainly the SERS signal of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs)-o-phenylenediamine (OPD). When glucose was added, glucose oxidase catalyzed glucose to produce hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂), which oxidized OPD to produce 2,3-diaminophenazine (DAP) in the presence of AgNPs. The generated DAP exhibited a new strong SERS signal and changed the Raman peak ratio between DAP and OPD. Without using any internal standard, the advanced chemometric model mitigated the fluctuations in SERS intensity and achieved accurate concentration predictions for glucose in serum samples with recoveries in the ranges of 92.8–104.8%.

Disorder of the ammonium cation in salt crystals caused by the need to adjust the tetrahedral cation to the symmetry of the position to preserve the crystal symmetry was revealed. If the symmetry group of the position was not a subgroup of the tetrahedral symmetry group, the NH₄ tetrahedron was distorted by the subgroup <i>H</i>ʹ common for <i>T</i>_<i>d</i> and <i>H</i>, where <i>H</i> is the symmetry group of the position. Then, a polyhedron corresponding to the symmetry of the position was constructed from <i>N</i> = |<i>H</i>|/|<i>H</i>ʹ| (|<i>H</i>| and |<i>H</i>ʹ| are the orders of these groups) distorted tetrahedra. The disordered ammonium cation had several orientations (<i>N</i>), the superposition of which formally gave a polyhedron corresponding to the local symmetry.
