An easy and selective thin layer chromatographic method has been developed and experimentally validated for the simultaneous screening of most commonly used anthelmintic drugs i.e. albendazole and ivermectin. Separation of these compounds was attained on silica gel 60 F254 pre-coated thin layer chromatographic plate using an optimized mobile phase of diisopropyl ether:ethyl acetate:glacial acetic acid in the ratio of 7:3:0.1 (v/v), respectively at pH 3.5. The calculated Rf values for albendazole and ivermectin were 0.65 and 0.38, respectively and the LOD was found to be 25 μg/ml and 30 μg/ml for albendazole and ivermectin, respectively. The developed method is selective, sensitive, robust, cost effective, eco-friendly, rapid as well as easy to perform. The developed method was successfully applied for the analysis of albendazole and ivermectin in pharmaceutical preparations marketed as oral suspensions, powder, tablets and injectable of the single or combined dosage forms for human as well as veterinary use. It could also be applied for the simultaneous analysis of both the compounds in other samples.

Abstract A densitometric method was developed for the identification and determination of indomethacin and its degradation products, 4-chlorobenzoic acid and 5-methoxy-2-methyl-3-indoleacetic acid, in pharmaceuticals. To separate these compounds, silica gel-coated thin-layer chromatography plates and the following mobile phase were used: 2-propanol–25% ammonia–water (8 + 1 + 1, v/v). UV densitometric measurements were made by comparing the absorption spectra and Rf values of appropriate standards with the pharmaceutical preparations examined. The conditions for separation were established and a low detection limit was obtained. Average recoveries were 100.69, 90.09, and 91.17% for indomethacin, 4-chlorobeznzoic acid, and 5-methoxy-2-methyl-3-indoleacetic acid, respectively.

Abstract A commodity extract containing presumptive aflatoxin is placed on an origin spot of a thin layer chromatographic plate and overspotted with trifluoroacetic acid. The mixture is held in the dark 30 min at ambient temperature and then 30 min at 55°C. The plate is developed with CHCl3-acetone-2-propanol (85+10+7). The Rf values of reacted and unreacted aflatoxin M1 are compared with authentic similarly treated for identification. The lowest concentration that has been identified is 0.1 μg/kg.

AbstractObjective: The compatibility of four binary active substances combinations adapalene – levofloxacin (ADP-LFX), adapalene – miconazole nitrate (ADP-MCZ), levofloxacin – meloxicam (LFX-MLX) and levofloxacin – miconazole nitrate (LFX-MCZ) was analysed to be comprised in new transdermal therapeutic systems. Also, the compatibility of selected active substances and four polymeric excipients (hydroxypropyl methyl-cellulose - HPMC 15000, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose - HPMC E5, ethyl cellulose - EC 10, and hydroxyethyl cellulose – HEC) was studied.Methods: Thin layer chromatographic method (TLC) and four selected mobile phases were used. On the plate (in situ) were obtained the binary combinations (active substances and active substance-polymer).Results: A good compatibility of ADP-LFX was found using ammonia : methanol : acetonitrile : methylene chloride 2:4:1:4 mobile phase. Using chloroform : acetone : glacial acetic acid 34:4:3 on the chromatogram of ADP-MCZ, only ADP spots appeared but without changes in the shape of the spots and Rf values. Any modifications of LFX and MLX spots (from LFX-MLX mixture) had been observed using toluene : glacial acetic acid : methanol 11:1:0.5 mobile phase, although LFX spots have remained on the baseline. Only LFX spots were visible from LFX-MLX and LFX-MCZ mixtures (ammonia : methanol : acetonitrile : methylene chloride 2:4:1:4 mobile phase). Distinctive spots were observed for ADP, LFX and MLX with variable results from no chemical interactions to limited chemical interactions when the compatibility with polymers was verified.Conclusions: ADP-LFX and LFX-MLX mixtures were found to be compatible. ADP with HPMC polymers and LFX with HPMC E5 and HEC had presented excellent compatibility; for the other binary combinations, different analytical methods will be necessary.

The present work describes a simple, accurate and precise HPTLC method for simultaneous quantitation of ritonavir (RVR) and lopinavir (LVR) in tablet formulation. Chromatographic separation of both drugs was performed on precoated aluminum plates, silica gel 60 F254 as the stationary phase and the solvent system consisted of toluene: ethyl acetate: methanol: glacial acetic acid in the ratio of 6.5:2.5:0.5:0.5(v/v/v/v). Densitometric evaluation of the separated zones was performed at 266 nm. The two drugs were satisfactorily resolved with Rf values of 0.242 0.03 and 0.413 0.02 for RVR and LVR, respectively. The accuracy and reliability of the method was assessed by evaluation of linearity (400-2000 ng/spot for RVR and 1600-8000 ng/spot for LVR), precision (intra-day RSD 0.16-0.38% and inter-day RSD 0.21-0.60 % for RVR and intra-day RSD 0.35-0.58 % and inter-day RSD 0.26-0.55 % for LVR) and recovery (99.54 0.62 % for RVR and 100.45 0.65 % for LVR), in accordance with ICH guidelines.

Abstract Progesterone and estrogens are hormones produced in the human body that are essential for regulating many vital functions. The three major estrogens produced by women are estriol, estradiol, and estrone. Progesterone is a naturally occurring hormone in both men and women. Pharmaceuticals containing estrogens alone or estrogens in combination with progesterone are commonly used in therapy. Patients requiring unique combinations of the drugs rely on pharmacies to compound the ingredients. In order to assess the potency of drugs containing combinations of estrogens and progesterone, a method was developed to determine all four ingredients simultaneously. The liquid chromatographic method utilized a Bondapak C18 column with an isocratic mobile phase of acetonitrilewater (50 + 50, v/v) at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min and temperature of 30C. Under these conditions, the order of elution was estriol, estradiol, and estrone, followed by progesterone. UV detection was at 205 nm to monitor elution of the estrogens, then switched to 270 nm to monitor progesterone. The method was applied to the analysis of pharmacy-compounded drugs containing combinations of the hormones. Validation studies demonstrated that the method is accurate and precise.

Abstract Twelve thin layer chromatographic systems were compared for the separation of photoalteration products of parathion. Rf values for each component in each system are presented. Infrared spectra confirmed the identity of separated components. The following 4 systems were designated superior and gave excellent separation of the components: petroleum ether-ethyl ether-glacial acetic acid (80+15+5 and 50+45+5), methanol-chloroform-ammonium hydroxide (24+75+3.5), and methanol-chloroform-petroleum ether (10+20+70).

A simple, rapid, and precise high-performance thin-layer chromatographic method was developed for quantitative estimation of luteolin and apigenin inPremna mucronataRoxb., family Verbenaceae. Separation was performed on silica gel 60 F254HPTLC plates using toluene : ethyl acetate : formic acid (6 : 4 : 0.3) as mobile phase for elution of markers from extract. The determination was carried out in fluorescence mode using densitometric absorbance-reflection mode at 366 nm for both luteolin and apigenin. The methanolic extract ofPremna mucronatawas found to contain 10.2 mg/g % luteolin and 0.165 mg/g % of apigenin. The method was validated in terms of linearity, LOD and LOQ, accuracy, precision, and specificity. The calibration curve was found to be linear between 200 and 1000 ng/band for luteolin and 50 and 250 ng/band for apigenin. For luteolin and apigenin, the limit of detection was found to be 42.6 ng/band and 7.97 ng/band while the limit of quantitation was found to be 129.08 ng/band and 24.155 ng/band, respectively. This developed validated method is capable of quantifying and resolving luteolin and apigenin and can be applicable for routine analysis of extract and plant as a whole.
