System suitability test: Nimesulide: Rf ~  0.51
 
 
Test for adulteration: Compare result with reference images. The fingerprint of the test solution is similar to that of the corresponding botanical reference sample. Additional weak zones may be present. The chromatogram of the test solution shows no zone at Rf ~ 0.51 corresponding in color and position to that of the nimesulide reference standard.
