Low-dose thiazide and thiazide-like diuretics are widely used as first-line therapy for hypertension. Chlorthalidone, a monosulfamyl diuretic, is frequently prescribed in cases of hypertension and congestive heart failure. In this research paper, an improved reverse-phase HPLC method was developed for the simultaneous identification and quantitation of pharmacopoeia-listed and in-house process- and degradation-related impurities of chlorthalidone in bulk drug and formulations. Chromatographic separation was carried out on a C8 column (250 × 4.6 mm; ‘5 μm particle size) at a flow rate of 1.4 mL/min with a 220 nm detection wavelength. Mobile phase A consisted of buffer solution (diammonium hydrogen orthophosphate (10 mM, pH 5.5)) and methanol at a 65 : 35 ratio (v/v), and mobile phase B consisted of buffer solution and methanol at a 50 : 50 ratio (v/v). The API and formulation were subjected to stress conditions such as acid, alkali, oxidation, thermal, and photolytic conditions. Validation studies for the in-house process impurities were performed for specificity, limit of detection (LOD), limit of quantitation (LOQ), linearity, precision, accuracy, and robustness. Thus, an improved RP-HPLC method capable of good separation of all known and unknown impurities with acceptable resolution and tailing factor was developed.

Neostigmine methylsulfate is an anticholinesterase agent and is clinically used for treating myasthenia gravis. It is also used for reversing nondepolarising neuromuscular blocking agents. Neostigmine methylsulfate may be administered by intravenous, intramuscular, or subcutaneous injection. In this research paper, a distinct stability-indicating reverse phase HPLC method was developed and validated for the quantitative determination of related impurities and degradation impurities in neostigmine methylsulfate API and injection formulation. The specific objective was to improve the resolution between European Pharmacopoeia listed impurity A and impurity B and degradation impurity of neostigmine methylsulfate API and injection formulation. The analysis was performed using Kromasil C18 column at 30°C of column oven temperature with phosphate-buffer/acetonitrile in a gradient mode. The RP-HPLC method was developed and validated for in-house neostigmine methylsulfate synthesis process sample and injection formulation. The injection formulation sample was studied for accelerated stability, temperature cycling stability, and photostability. The validation studies for neostigmine methylsulfate synthesis process API were studied using impurity A, impurity B, and impurity C. The analytical method validation parameters studied were specificity, precision, linearity, limit of detection, limit of quantitation, accuracy, and robustness. The API and the injection formulation were subjected to forced degradation under acid, alkali, oxidation, and photolytic and thermal conditions. The proposed method showed a significantly improved RRT (Relative Retention Time) of impurity A and impurity B with a resolution greater than 1.5. The developed method eliminates the use of an ion-pairing agent and thereby a good performance of column was established.

Citrinin is a toxic product usually produced during theMonascusfermentation. The presence of citrinin in xuezhikang capsule has been a concern due to its ingredient which is derived frommonascus-fermented rice. A rapid and sensitive RP-HPLC method with fluorescence detection at λex= 331 nm and λem= 500 nm for analysis of citrinin inMonascus-fermented products was developed to analyze citrinin inMonascus-fermented products. The chromatography was performed with mobile phase containing acidified water and acetonitrile. The calibration curve was linear (r = 0.9999) over a range of 0.0107- 0.537 μg/mL. The limit of detection (LOD) and the limit of quantitation (LOQ) were 0.187 ng/mL and 0.6 ng/mL respectively. The analysis of xuezhikang capsules using the developed method suggested that the product does not contain detectable citrinin and the result has been further confirmed using independent LC-MS/MS analysis. The proposed method has also been applied to analyze 11 samples of otherMonascus-fermented products. The results suggested that there were no detectable citrinin in 4 of the 11 samples, however citrinin with the levels between 0.10-594 ng/kg has been detected in the other 7 samples. It indicates that the proposed method can also be applied to carry out the quantitative detection of citrinin for otherMonascus-fermented products.

Lumefantrine is an antimalarial agent used to treat acute uncomplicated malaria. It is administered in combination with artemether for improved efficacy. This combination therapy exerts its effects against the erythrocytic stages of Plasmodium spp. and may be used to treat infections caused by P. falciparum and unidentified Plasmodium species, including infections acquired in chloroquine-resistant areas. A reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) method was developed and validated for the estimation of lumefantrine in bulk drug. The separation was achieved on Thermo C18 analytical column (250 mm × 4.6 mm i.d., 5.0 μm) using 10mM KH2PO4: acetonitrile  (pH adjust 3.0 with OPA) in the ratio 20:80 v/v as mobile phase and at a flow rate of 1.0 ml/min. Detection was carried out using a UV detector at 240nm. The total chromatographic analysis time per sample was about 6.0 min with lumefantrine eluting at retention time of about 3.225 ± 0.001min. The method was validated for accuracy, precision, specificity, linearity and sensitivity. Validation studies demonstrated that this HPLC method is simple, specific, rapid, reliable and reproducible. The standard curve was linear over the concentration range of 5-25 μg/ml with r2 close to one (0.999). The limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantitation (LOQ) obtained for lumefantrine were 0.25 μg/ml and 0.75μg/ml respectively. The high recovery and low relative standard deviation confirm the suitability of the proposed method for the determination of lumefantrine in bulk drugs.
