A depletion of reduced glutathione (GSH) has been observed in pathological conditions and in aging. Measuring GSH in tissues using mouse models is an excellent way to assess GSH depletion and the potential therapeutic efficacy of drugs used to maintain and/or restore cellular redox potential. A high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method for the simultaneous determination of GSH and cysteine (Cys) in mouse organs was validated according to USA and European standards. The method was based on separation coupled with ultraviolet detection and precolumn derivatization with 5,5′-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid) (DTNB). The required validation parameters, that are, selectivity, linearity, lower limit of quantification, precision, accuracy, recovery, and stability, were studied for spleen, lymph nodes, pancreas, and brain. The results showed that the lower limits of quantification were 0.313 μM and 1.25 μM for Cys and GSH, respectively. Intraday and interday precisions were less than 11% and 14%, respectively, for both compounds. The mean extraction recoveries of Cys and GSH from all organs were more than 93% and 86%, respectively. Moreover, the stability of both analytes during sample preparation and storage was demonstrated. The method was accurate, reliable, consistent, and reproducible and it was useful to determine Cys and GSH in the organs of different mouse strains.

The quantification of histidine-containing dipeptides (anserine, carnosine, and balenine) in serum might be a diagnostic tool to assess the health condition of animals. In this study, an existing reversed-phase ion-pair high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)–ultraviolet detection method was improved and validated to quantify serum anserine, carnosine, and balenine levels in the dolphin. The serum was deproteinized with trichloroacetic acid and directly injected into the HPLC system. Chromatographic separation of the three histidine-containing dipeptides was achieved on a TSK–gel ODS-80Ts (4.6 mm × 150 mm, 5 µm) analytical column using a mobile phase of 50 mmol/L potassium dihydrogen phosphate (pH 3.4) containing 6 mmol/L 1-heptanesulfonic acid and acetonitrile (96:4). The standard curve ranged from 0.1 µmol/L to 250 µmol/L. The average accuracy of the intra- and inter-analysis of anserine, carnosine, and balenine was 97–106%. The relative standard deviations of total precision (RSDr) of anserine, carnosine, and balenine in dolphin serum were 5.9%, 4.1%, and 2.6%, respectively. The lower limit of quantification of these compounds was 0.11–0.21 µmol/L. These results indicate that the improved method is reliable and concise for the simultaneous determination of anserine, carnosine, and balenine in dolphin serum, and may be useful for evaluation of health conditions in dolphins. Furthermore, this method can also be applied to other biological samples.

A reliable and reproducible reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) was developed for the quantitative determination of Remipril drug content from marketed bulk tablets. The active ingredient of Remipril separation achieved with C18 column using the methanol water mobile phase in the ratio of 40:60 (v/v). The active ingredient of the drug content quantify with UV detector at 215 nm. The retention time of Remipril is 5.63 min. A good linearity relation (R2=0.999) was obtained between drug concentration and average peak areas. The limit of detection and limit of quantification of the instrument were calculated 0.03 and 0.09 µg/mL, respectively. The accuracy of the method validation was determined 102.72% by recoveries method.

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.

A high-performance liquid chromatography method was developed and validated for the quantification of the cytotoxic compounds produced by a marine strain ofAspergillus niger. The fungus was grown in malt peptone dextrose (MPD), potato dextrose yeast (PDY), and mannitol peptone yeast (MnPY) media during 7, 14, 21, and 28 days, and the natural products were identified by standard compounds. The validation parameters obtained were selectivity, linearity (coefficient of correlation > 0.99), precision (relative standard deviation below 5%), and accuracy (recovery > 96).

Objective: Noscof tablet is a fixed dosage combination formulation having diphenhydramine (DH), ephedrine (ED), noscapine (NP), and glycerol glycolate (GG). A sensitive, selective, accurate, precise, and stability-indicating reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) method with photodiode array detection has been developed and validated for simultaneous analysis of DH, ED, NP, and GG in bulk drug and Noscof tablets. Methods: Reversed-phase chromatographic separation and analysis of DH, ED, NP, and GG were done on an Altima C18 column with 0.01 M KH2PO4 buffer (pH 3.5) and acetonitrile (50:50%, v/v) as mobile phase at 0.8 ml/min flow rate in isocratic mode. Detection was performed at 260 nm. The method was validated in harmony with International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) guidelines. The tablet sample solution was subjected to diverse stress conditions using ICH strategy such as hydrolytic degradation (neutral - with distilled water, alkaline - with 2 N NaOH, and acidic - with 2 N HCl), oxidation (with 10% H2O2), photodegradation (exposing to UV light), and dry heat degradation (exposing to 105°C). Results: Using the above stated chromatographic conditions, sharp peaks were obtained for ED, NP, DH, and GG with retention time of 3.272 min, 4.098 min, 5.467 min, and 6.783 min, respectively. Good regression coefficient values were obtained in the range of 2–12 μg/ml for ED, 3.75–22.5 μg/ml for NP, 3.125–18.75 μg/ml for DH, and 25–150 μg/ml for GG. The quantification limits were 0.181 μg/ml, 0.187 μg/ml, 0.246 μg/ml, and 1.114 μg/ml for ED, NP, DH, and GG, respectively. The values of validation parameters are within the acceptance limits given by ICH. The ED, NP, DH, and GG showed more percent of degradation in acid condition and less percent of degradation in the neutral condition. The peaks of degradants did not interfere with the peaks of analytes. ED, NP, DH, and GG were assessed with a good percentage of the assay (near to 100%) and low percent relative standard deviation (<2%) in Noscof tablets using the proposed method. Conclusion: The stability indicating RP-HPLC method developed was suitable for quantifying ED, NP, DH, and GG simultaneously in bulk as well as in tablet formulation.
