Video-scanning procedure was performed for a new TLC method of quantitative analysis of two angiotensin AT1 receptor antagonists, telmisartan and valsartan, in pharmaceuticals. Determination was carried out using silica gel adsorbent, a mobile phase consisting of 1,4-dioxane-hexane-formic acid (99%) (5:5:0.1, v/v/v) and detection at 254 nm for the both drugs. Compact spots were obtained for telmisartan with RF 0.27 ± 0.01 (mean ± SD) and for valsartan with RF 0.39 ± 0.01. Calibration plots were linear with good correlation coefficients equal 0.9968 and 0.9966 for telmisartan and valsartan. The method was verified for robustness, precision and accuracy.
