The utility of a size exclusion high-performance liquid chromatography (SE-HPLC) method, in the identification and quantitation of haemagglutinin (HA) protein in monovalent, inactivated influenza vaccines for the purposes of potency assessment is reported. This method is sufficiently eveloped to provide a distinct peak separation of HA from other vaccine constituents, and a correlation with HA potency determined by single radial-immunodiffusion (SRID) assay. Sensitivity of the method is demonstrated, with each HA peak accurately titrated to the HA content of the protein load injected. Highly reproducible chromatographic profiles (on a G4000SWxl column) were achieved, demonstrating vaccine protein integrity and stability. Potency assessments, determined by SE-HPLC peak area analysis, provided very good correlation with the quantitative HA protein values, determined by SRID, reported by the manufacturer and by Health Canada's Centre for Biologics Evaluation, Pandemic Influenza Division (PID). Peak resolution was further enhanced by expanding to a tandem SE-HPLC system, utilizing a G4000SWxl SE column coupled to a G3000SWxl column. HA was detected in the 11-17 minute (min) elution, collected in 30 second (sec) fractions, with the smallest, most distinct peak width detected to date at the 15.5 min fraction. This SE-HPLC method has considerable potential for widespread use as a physicochemical method for HA identification and quantification, in quality control testing for seasonal and pandemic influenza vaccines, and as a practical alternative for potency measures by the reagent dependent SRID assay. Increased resolution and further method development will facilitate the collection of separated fractions for further analysis, to correlate immunoactivity to HA type and content.

This study was designed to develop and validate a simple and efficient high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method to determine flunixin concentrations in Asian elephant’s (Elephas maximus) plasma. Flunixin was administered orally at a dose of 0.8 mg/kg, and blood samples were collected. Flunixin extraction was performed by adding an equal amount of acetonitrile to plasma and centrifuging at 4500 rpm for 25 minutes. The supernatant was removed, and flunixin was analyzed using HPLC-UV detection. Two methods were developed and tested utilizing two different mobile phases either with or without adding methanol (ACN: H2O vs. ACN: H2O: MeOH). Both methods showed excellent linearity and reproducibility. The limit of detection was 0.05 ug/ml and limit of quantification was 0.1 ug/ml. the efficiency of flunixin recovery was maximized by the addition of methanol to mobile phase (ACN: H2O: MeOH as 50:30:20) at 95% in comparison to 23% without methanol. In conclusion, adding methanol to HPLC methods for extraction of flunixin from elephants’ plasma yielded higher recovery rate than without methanol.

A reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) method for the simultaneous estimation of Pyridoxamine dihydrochloride and Acetylcysteine in the marketed formulation is developed. Chromatography carried out at 30oc temperature on Agilent Zorbax Bonus-RP (250 x 4.6 mm, 5 µ) coloum. Coloum using a mobile phase 0.1% trifluroacetic acid in water: acetonitrile (80:20v/v) with flow rate 1ml/min (DAD scan at 210nm). Validation parameters such as system suitability, linearity, precision, accuracy are considered as reported International Conference on Harmonization guidelines. The retention times for Pyridoxamine dihydrochloride and Acetylcysteine are 2 min and 3.4 min. The linearity range for Pyridoxamine dihydrochloride and Acetylcysteine is 30-70 µg/ml and 180-420 µg/ml. The %RSD for accuracy was found to be less than 2%. Hence the proposed method was found to be accurate, precise, reproducible, and specific and can be used for simultaneous analysis of these drugs in tablet formulation.

For qualitative and quantitative analysis, various analytical techniques are available such as Ultraviolet (UV) Spectrophotometry, High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), High-performance thin layer chromatography (HPTLC). As per literature survey, there are some UV, HPLC, Ultra-Performance Liquid Chromatography (UPLC) and HPTLC analytical methods are developed for Montelukast and Doxofylline individually and in a combination with other drugs too, since yet there are no significant stability studies indicating HPLC method reported for Montelukast and Doxofylline combinations. In the current study, the HPLC method is developed and validated for simultaneous quantitative estimations of Montelukast and Doxofylline. These present techniques are more efficient and sensitive as compared to other analytical techniques.

An attempt was made to develop a simple, selective, rapid and precise high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method for simultaneous estimation of thymol and eugenol. Analysis was performed on a C18 column with the mobile phase consisting of solvent %A (water) and solvent %B (acetonitrile) with the following gradient: 0–1 min, 80 % A, 20 % B; 1–7 min, 40 % A and 60 % B; 7–12 min, 10 % A and 90 % B; and 12–15min, 80 % A and 20 % B at a flow rate of 0.6 mL/min. The compounds were well separated on a Thermo Scientific Hypersil BDS RP C18 column (4.6 mm × 150 mm, dp = 5 µm) and ultraviolet detection at 280 nm. The retention times of eugenol and thymol were 10.5 min and 11.6 min, respectively. Validation of the proposed method was carried out according to the guidelines of the International Council on Harmonization (ICH). The linearity of the method is good for thymol and eugenol over the concentration range of 1–50 ppm, and the r 2 values were 0.9996 for both thymol and eugenol. The calculated limit of detection (LOD) value was 0.5ppm and the limit of quantification (LOQ) value was 1ppm for both the analytes. The intra and interday relative standard deviation (RSD) of the retention time and peak areas was less than 3 %.The established method was appropriate, and the two markers were well resolved, enabling efficient quantitative analysis of thymol and eugenol.

A simple, accurate, precise high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method has been developed and validated for the simultaneous determination of abacavir sulphate (ABA) and lamivudine (LAM) in combined dosage form. Separation was performed on a C18 column [Agilent ODS UG 5 column, 250 mm x 4.5 mm], with methanol: water (50:50 V/V) isocratic elution using a flow rate of 1mL/min. Good sensitivity was observed with UV detection at 277 nm. After method development, the interference of other active compounds and excipients, repeatability and linearity, were investigated. Retention times of LAM and ABA were found to be 3.3 and 6.3 min, respectively. The method was validated over the range from 2.5-12.5 μg/mL for LAM and 5-25 μg/mL for ABA with correlation coefficients of 0.9997 and 0.9996, respectively. This method was shown to be accurate, robust, selective, linear, and repeatable and can be successfully employed in routine quality control for the simultaneous analysis of ABA and LAM in tablets.
