Abstract Bedaquiline (BDQ) is a new drug approved by United States Food and Drug Administration (USFDA) in 2012 for the treatment of drug-resistant tuberculosis, which has become a major threat globally. The manuscript presents the development of three liquid chromatography (LC) based analytical methods. The first is a stability indicating RP-HPLC (reverse phase-high performance liquid chromatography) method to analyze the BDQ in presence of its degradation products. Another UPLC/ESI–MS (ultra-performance liquid chromatography/electron spray ionization–mass spectrometry) method was developed for the identification of different degradation based and process related impurities and the third, preparative HPLC method was developed for the isolation of major degradation products. Eleven degradation products and one process related impurity were identified using UPLC/ESI–MS whereas preparative HPLC was used to isolate two degradation products and their chemical structure was elucidated using nuclear magnetic resonance, mass and infra-red spectral data.

Abstract Reboxetine is used as a selective noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor for the treatment of major depressive disorders. It is effective in the treatment of severe depression and safer to use than traditional tricyclic antidepressants. In this study, a novel, simple, and rapid stability-indicating high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method for reboxetine methansulfonate was successfully developed and validated for the assay of tablets. The method was used to quantify reboxetine in tablets; it employed a C18 column (150 4.6 mm id) with an isocratic mobile phase consisting of methanolphosphate buffer (pH 7, 0.02 M; 55 + 45, v/v) at a flow rate of 1.0 μmL/min. Reboxetine was detected by an ultraviolet detector at 277 nm. The retention time of reboxetine was about 4.5 min. The developed HPLC method was validated with respect to linearity, precision, sensitivity, accuracy, and selectivity. The method was linear over the concentration range 150 g/mL (r 0.9999). The limits of detection and the quantitation of reboxetine were 0.1 and 0.3 μg/mL, respectively. The relative standard deviation values for intraday and interday precision were 0.781.01 and 1.081.37%, respectively. Selectivity was validated by subjecting a stock solution of reboxetine to neutral, acid, and alkali hydrolysis, as well as oxidation, dry heat treatment, and photodegradation. The peaks of the degradation products did not interfere with the peak of reboxetine. The results indicated that the proposed method could be used in a stability assay. The proposed method was successfully applied to the determination of reboxetine in tablets. Excipients present in the tablets did not interfere with the analysis.

Abstract A reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) method has been developed and validated for the identification and assay of Ivermectin, including the identification and estimation of its process-related impurities and degradation products in bulk drug substance of Ivermectin. Analytes were separated on a HALO C18 column (100 mm × 4.6 mm I.D., 2.7 μm particle size) maintained at 40 °C (column temperature) with gradient elution. All analytes of interests were adequately separated within 25 min. All degradation products, process-related impurities and assay were monitored by ultraviolet detection at 254 nm. The new HPLC method described here successfully separated an isomer peak of the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) from the major API peak. This newly separated isomer peak is around 1.2 to 1.5% (peak area) in typical API samples, and coelutes with the major API peak by all current HPLC methods. Quantitation limit of the HPLC method is 0.1% of target analytical concentration (~1.0 μg/mL). This method has been demonstrated to be accurate, robust, significantly higher degree of selectivity compared to the HPLC methods of Ivermectin drug substance reported in the literature and in the compendial HPLC methods prescribed in the current USA and European Pharmacopeia.

Background: Allergic diseases are considered as the major burden on public health with increased prevalence globally. Histamine H1-receptor antagonists are the foremost commonly used drugs in the treatment of allergic disorders. The target drug in this study, loratadine, belongs to this class of drugs and its biometabolite desloratadine which is also a non-sedating H1 receptor antagonist with anti-histaminic activity being 2.5 to 4 times greater than loratadine. This study aimed to develop and validate a novel isocratic Reversed-phase High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (RP-HPLC) method for rapid and simultaneous separation and determination of loratadine and its metabolite, desloratadine in human plasma. Methods: The drug extraction method from plasma was based on protein precipitation technique. The separation was carried out on a Thermo Scientific BDS Hypersil C18 column (5μm, 250 x 4.60 mm) in a mobile phase of MeOH: 0.025M KH2PO4 adjusted to pH 3.50 using orthophosphoric acid (85: 15, v/v) at an ambient temperature. The flow rate was maintained at 1 mL/min and maximum absorption was measured using the PDA detector at 248 nm. Results: The retention times of loratadine and desloratadine in plasma samples were recorded to be 4.10 and 5.08 minutes, respectively, indicating a short analysis time. Limits of detection were found to be 1.80 and 1.97 ng/mL for loratadine and desloratadine, respectively, showing a high degree of sensitivity of the method. The method was then validated according to FDA guidelines for the determination of the two analytes in human plasma. Conclusion: The results obtained indicate that the proposed method is rapid, sensitive in the nanogram range, accurate, selective, robust and reproducible compared to other reported methods.

Abstract Moringa oleifera is known as a drumstick tree and is cultivated in the subtropics and tropics. It exhibits antihypertensive and antidiabetic effects. An ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography method was developed for the determination of 9 phytochemicals in M. oleifera leaves and marketed products. The efficient separation was achieved within 7 min with a temperature of 45 °C by using a C-18 column as the stationary phase and water/acetonitrile with 0.05% formic acid as the mobile phase. The method was validated for linearity, repeatability, limits of detection, and limits of quantification. The limits of detections of phenolic compounds 1 – 9 were as low as 0.2 µg/mL. The photodiode array detector at 220 and 255 nm wavelengths was recruited for quantification. The key phytochemicals were detected in the range of 0.42 to 2.57 mg/100 mg sample weight in 13 dietary supplements. This study considers the quantitative analysis for lignans in M. oleifera for the first time. Isoquercitrin (5) and quercetin 3-O-(6-O-malonyl)-β−D-glucopyranoside (6) predominates the leaves of M. oleifera with inherent degradable nature detected for compound 6. Niazirin (2) was detected in amounts between 0.010 – 0.049 mg/100 mg while compound 1 was undetectable and potentially an artifact because of the fractionation process. The characterization and confirmation of components were achieved by liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry with extractive ion monitoring for the positive and negative ion modes. The developed and validated method is robust and rapid in the conclusive quantification of phytochemicals and authentication of the Moringa samples for quality assurance.

Standard methods are in place for analysis of 17 legacy munitions compounds and one surrogate in water and soil matrices; however, several insensitive munition (IM) and degradation products are not part of these analytical procedures. This lack could lead to inaccurate determinations of munitions in environmental samples by either not measuring for IM compounds or using methods not designed for IM and other legacy compounds. This work seeks to continue expanding the list of target analytes currently included in the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Method 8330B. This technical report presents three methods capable of detecting 29 legacy, IM, and degradation products in a single High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) method with either ultraviolet (UV)-visible absorbance detection or mass spectrometric detection. Procedures were developed from previously published works and include the addition of hexahydro-1-nitroso-3,5-dinitro-1,3,5-triazine (MNX); hexahydro-1,3-dinitroso-5-nitro-1,3,5-triazine (DNX); hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitroso-1,3,5-triazine (TNX); 2,4-diamino-6-nitrotoluene (2,4-DANT); and 2,6-diamino-4-nitrotoluene (2,6-DANT). One primary analytical method and two secondary (confirmation) methods were developed capable of detecting 29 analytes and two surrogates. Methods for high water concentrations (direct injection), low-level water concentrations (solid phase extraction), soil (solvent extraction), and tissue (solvent extraction) were tested for analyte recovery of the new compounds.
