Abstract Background The objective of the work carried out was to assess the toxicity of the degradation products (DPs) for the drug felbamate. Stress studies were performed in the condition specified in the international council of harmonization (ICH) guideline Q1A (R2). Results The drug degraded under the alkaline stress conditions to generate two degradation products (DPs). They were separated on a Phenomenex C8 column (250 mm × 4.6 mm, 5 µm); mobile phase composition was 10 mM ammonium formate (pH adjusted to 3.7 with formic acid) and acetonitrile (80:20, v/v); flow rate and wavelength for recording absorbance were 1.0 ml/min and 206 nm, respectively. The structures of the degradation products were characterized by LC–MS/MS analysis. Conclusion The drug was prone to hydrolysis in the presence of alkali. It was found to be stable under other stress conditions, viz., acidic, neutral, thermal, photolytic and oxidative. The structures of the impurities were characterized by LC–MS/MS. The drug and the DPs were screened through ADME and toxicity prediction software’s like pkCSM, Toxtree and OSIRIS property explorer. Felbamate was flagged for possible hepatotoxicity.

Abstract A stability-indicating isocratic reversed-phase ion-pair chromatographic method was designed for the separation of impurities in the presence of degradation products. Marbofloxacin tablets and a placebo were exposed to the stress conditions of oxidative, acid, base, humidity, thermal, and photolytic degradation. Significant and moderate degradation was observed in acidic and oxidative stress conditions, respectively. The degradation products were well resolved from the main peak and its impurities, thus proving the stability-indicating analytical method. The method was developed by using an XTerra RP18 3.5 μm (150 × 4.6 mm) column, with the mobile phase containing a mixture of buffer (pH 2.5)–methanol–glacial acetic acid (77 + 23 + 0.5, v/v). The flow rate of the mobile phase was 1.2 mL/min, with a column oven temperature of 40°C and a detection wavelength of 315 nm. The proposed method met Veterinary International Conference on Harmonization requirements and was successfully used for impurity quantitation in marbofloxacin tablets.

Background: A stability indicating high-performance thin layer chromatography (HPTLC) method was developed for the evaluation of fisetin (FIS) in active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) and marketed capsule formulation in accordance with the ICH guidelines. Methods: The mobile phase combination toluene: ethyl acetate: formic acid: methanol (3: 5.5: 1: 0.5 v/v/v/v) was optimized with the aid of AQbD approach. The absorbance mode at 254 nm was chosen for densitometric analysis as it gives a compact spot of FIS at Rf value of 0.74. Results: The R2 value obtained from the linear regression equation of calibration plots made by taking the spot in the concentration range of 100-1400 ng/spot was found to be 0.9993. The observed LOD and LOQ value was found to be 29.8 ng/spot and 98.5 ng/spot, respectively. The exposure of FIS to various stress conditions revealed the fact that the drug is stable in photochemical and dry heat stress conditions without any degradation. The drug-exposed to acidic, alkaline and oxidative stress was found to be degraded into different degradation products with the highest degradation was found in alkaline stress. All degradation products were observed to be fairly separated from well-resolved parent peak of FIS. Conclusion: The developed HPTLC method have shown well-resolved peaks and also shown good recovery in the compound FIS as well as FIS formulation.
