Two sensitive and selective chromatographic methods were developed for determination of finasteride and tamsulosin hydrochloride in bulk powder and a pharmaceutical formulation. The first method was based on high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) separation of the cited drugs in the presence of the acid degradation product of finasteride. The separation was achieved using a C18 column (300 mm × 3.9 mm; 10-μm particle size) and a mobile phase consisting of 0.04 M ortho-phosphoric acid (pH 3.5 ± 0.2 adjusted with triethylamine) and acetonitrile (50:50, v/v). Quantification was achieved with ultraviolet (UV) detection at 215 nm. Linearity was in the range of 10.00–110.00 μg/mL and 2.00–44.00 μg/mL for finasteride and tamsulosin hydrochloride, respectively. Thin-layer chromatography (TLC)–densitometric method was achieved on an aluminum plates pre-coated with silica gel 60 F254 using toluene–ethanol–diethylamine (8:2:1.5, by volume) as eluent, and the RF values of tamsulosin hydrochloride and finasteride were 0.57 and 0.64, respectively. Quantification was achieved with UV detection at 250 nm for finasteride and 280 nm for tamsulosin hydrochloride. Linearity was in the range of 1.00–40.00 and 0.2.00–20.00 μg per spot for finasteride and tamsulosin hydrochloride, respectively. The results obtained were validated according to the International Conference on Harmonisation (ICH) guidelines. A statistical comparison between the obtained results and the results of a reported method was carried out.

Abstract Two sensitive, selective and precise chromatographic methods have been established for concomitant quantification of ciprofloxacin HCl (CIP), fluocinolone acetonide (FLU) along with ciprofloxacin impurity A (CIP-imp A). The first method was thin-layer chromatography (TLC-densitometry) where separation was accomplished using TLC silica plates 60 G.F254 as a stationary phase and chloroform–methanol–33%ammonia (4.6:4.4:1, by volume) as a developing system. The obtained plates were scanned at 260 nm over concentration ranges of 1.0–40.0, 0.6–20.0 and 1.0–40.0 μg band−1 for CIP, FLU and CIP-imp A, respectively. The second method was based on high-performance liquid chromatography using a Zorbax ODS column (5 μm, 150 × 4.6 mm i.d.) where adequate separation was achieved through a mobile phase composed of phosphate buffer pH 3.6–acetonitrile (45:55, v/v) at flow rate 1.0 mL min−1 with ultraviolet detection at 254 nm. Linear regressions were obtained in the range of 1.0–40.0 μg mL−1 for CIP, 0.6–20.0 μg mL−1 for FLU and 1.0–40.0 μg mL−1 for CIP-imp A. The suggested methods were validated in compliance with the International Conference on Harmonization guidelines and were successfully applied for determination of CIP and FLU in bulk powder and newly marketed otic solution.

Introduction: Mahamrutyunjaya rasa is a herbomineral ayurvedic formulation used for various indications like fever, pain, cardiac arrhythmia, etc. It contains Solanum indicum as one of the ingredients having anti-inflammatory, diuretic, and diaphoretic properties. Solanine is one of the active biomarkers for Solanum indicum. The therapeutic window of Solanine is very narrow, with the LD50 value of 3-6 mg/kg body weight in humans. Objective: Estimation of such biomarkers is very significant to avoid any adverse events due to the administration of ayurvedic preparations containing Solanine. In the present study, two simple, sensitive, reliable chromatographic techniques have been developed and validated for the estimation of Solanine in Mahamrutyunjaya rasa. Materials and Methods: High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) separation of Solanine was performed on an reversed phase C-18 column (250 mm 9 4.6 mm ID, 5 lm particle size), with isocratic elution using a mixture of Tris buffer (10mM, pH 6.00): Acetonitrile(60:40, v/v) at a flow rate of 1 mL/min with UV detection at 218 nm for solanine. High-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC) separation was done on Silica gel 60 F254 pre-coated plates using Chloroform: Methanol: Ammonia (7:3:0.5 v/v). The densitometric scanning was performed at 500 nm. The developed methods were validated for linearity, LOD, LOQ, accuracy, precision, and specificity as per ICH guidelines. Results: Solanine was eluted at 4.43 ± 0.1 min and established a linearity range of 1 – 100 μg/ml (r2 = 0.9992). In the HPTLC method, the Rf value of Solanine was 0.05 in a linearity range of 1600-4800 ng/ml. Conclusion: Reliable, rapid, simple, and sensitive chromatographic methods were developed for the quantification of Solanine in Mahamrutyunjaya Rasa.

Abstract This paper describes validated HPLC and HPTLC methods for simultaneous determination of alprazolam (ALP) and fluoxetine hydrochloride (FXT) in pure powder and formulation. The HPLC separation was achieved on a Nucleosil C8 column (150 mm length, 4.6 mm id, 5 m particle size) using acetonitrilephosphate buffer pH 5.5 (45 + 55, v/v) as the mobile phase at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min at ambient temperature. The HPTLC separation was achieved on an aluminum-backed layer of silica gel 60F254 using acetonetolueneammonia (6.0 + 3.5 + 0.5, v/v/v) as the mobile phase. Quantification in the HPLC method was achieved with UV detection at 230 nm over the concentration range 414 g/mL for both drugs, with mean recovery of 99.95 0.38 and 99.85 0.56 for ALP and FXT, respectively. Quantification in the HPTLC method was achieved with UV detection at 230 nm over the concentration range of 4001400 ng/spot for both drugs, with mean recovery of 99.32 0.45 and 99.78 0.81 for ALP and FXT, respectively. These methods are simple, precise, and sensitive, and they are applicable for the simultaneous determination of ALP and FXT in pure powder and formulations.

Abstract An interlaboratory comparison was carried out to evaluate the effectiveness of a method based on HPTLC in which reagent-free derivatization is followed by UV/fluorescence detection. The method was tested for the determination of sucralose (C12H19Cl3O8; (2R,3R,4R,5S,6R)-2- [(2R,3S,4S,5S)-2,5-bis(chloromethyl)-3,4-dihydroxyoxolan- 2-yl]oxy-5-chloro-6-hydroxymethyl)oxane-3, 4-diol; CAS Registry No. 56038-13-2) in carbonated and still beverages at the proposed European regulatory limits. For still beverages, a portion of the sample was diluted with methanolwater. For carbonated beverages, a portion of the sample was degassed in an ultrasonic bath before dilution. Turbid beverages were filtered after dilution through an HPLC syringe filter. The separation of sucralose was performed by direct application on amino-bonded (NH2) silica gel HPTLC plates (no cleanup needed) with the mobile phase acetonitrilewater. Sucralose was determined after reagent-free derivatization at 190C; it was quantified by measurements of both UV absorption and fluorescence. The samples, both spiked and containing sucralose, were sent to 14 laboratories in five different countries. Test portions of a sample found to contain no sucralose were spiked at levels of 30.5, 100.7, and 299 mg/L. Recoveries ranged from 104.3 to 124.6 and averaged 112 for determination by UV detection; recoveries ranged from 98.4 to 101.3 and averaged 99.9 for determination by fluorescence detection. On the basis of the results for spiked samples (blind duplicates at three levels), as well as sucralosecontaining samples (blind duplicates at three levels and one split level), the values for the RSDr ranged from 10.3 to 31.4 for determinations by UV detection and from 8.9 to 15.9 for determinations by fluorescence detection. The values for the RSDR values ranged from 13.5 to 31.4 for determinations by UV detection and from 8.9 to 20.7 for determinations by fluorescence detection.

To develop a simple, fast, specific, precise and accurate High Performance Thin Layer Chromatographic method (HPTLC) for the determination of Voglibose in bulk and their dosage forms. The chromatographic separation was achieved on precoated silica gel 60F254 aluminum plates using a combination of acetonitrile: methanol: ammonia (15:4:0.1 % V/V/V) as mobile phase and densitometric evaluation of spots was carried out at 284 nm using Camag TLC scanner III with CATS 1.3.4 version software. The experimental parameters like band size of the chamber saturation time, spot application, slit width, solvent front migration, etc. were studied critically and evolved optimized conditions. The drug was well resolved satisfactorily with Rf value 0.66±0.03. The repeatability and accuracy of the optimized method were ascertained by evaluating various validation parameters like linearity (100 to 450 ng/spot), precision (intra-day % RSD 0.21 to 0.74, inter-day % RSD 0.21 to 0.29), accuracy (99.8% to 101.2%, % RSD below 1%), and specificity according to ICH guidelines. The limits of detection and quantification were 40 ng/spot and 100 ng/spot respectively. The developed HPTLC method was faster and cost effective quantitative control for routine analysis of Voglibose in bulk and its formulations.
