Background: Green Chemistry has emerged as a new field of study in chemistry in the past 15 years and is intended to be sustainable at the molecular level. Green Chemistry has focused on harmless chemical technologies to meet both environmental and targets. The purpose of Green Chromatography is to protect the environment and the analyst like Green Chemisty. Objective: The main target is to reduce the consumption of hazardous solvent and to replacement of toxic and environmentally hazardous solvents with more benign alternatives. Methods: In addition, reducing the flow rate (decrease column interdiameter etc.) in order to miniaturizing the waste generation is also within the field of green chromatography. On the other hand, the most effective technique for the “Green” approach can be miniaturized completely. Flow rate decreases from mL to microliter per minute. Thus, waste production and solvent consumption are significantly reduced. In recent studies, studies without organic solvents such as SFC, SBWC are frequently encountered. Results: Chromatographic analysis has the potential to become greener at all stages from sample collection and preparation to separation and final determination. Liquid chromatography is often used in pharmaceutical analyzes. Tons of wastes are produced every year for pharmaceutical analysis. For this reason, greening approach in liquid chromatography becomes very important for human and environmental health in pharmaceutical analysis. Conclusion: This review discusses the approaches used to achieve the goals of green chromatography, aimed at protecting the environment and the analyst in pharmaceutical analysis. While one cannot completely convert the analysis to the green, the steps taken to green are very valuable particularly in widerange used HPLC both in drug quality control laboratories in industry and in reaserch studies.

The protective function of xanthophyll cycle was investigated in the green algae Mougeotia sp. Agardt (AICB 560) originating from the collection belonging to Institute of Biological Research Cluj Napoca, using excessive light. High performance liquid chromatography was used to analyze carotenoids involved in violaxanthin cycle in this matrix. Separations were performed on an Agilent 1100 system, using a Nucleosil 120-5 C18 column and the following mobile phases: A - acetonitrile : water (9 : 1) and B - ethyl acetate. The flow rate of the mobile phase was 1 ml/ min. and the solvent gradient was as follows: from 0 to 20 min. - 10% to 70% B, then from 20 to 30 min. - 70% to 10% B. Chromatographic analysis demonstrated a particular behavior of AICB 560 under intense illumination: the major de-epoxidation product is not zeaxanthin, but antheraxanthin. More than that, the illumination conditions affect the whole carotenoid biosynthesis, starting with the violaxanthin cycle’s pigments precursor: b-carotene.

Introduction: A rapid, and accurate Ultra Performance Liquid Chromatography (UPLC) method was developed to simultaneously analyze Methocarbamol, Paracetamol and the related substances Materials and Methods: Waters ACQUITY UPLC® BEH Phenyl C18 column was used in conjunction with UV detection at 225nm. Gradient elution with 0.05M, pH 6 phosphate buffer and acetonitrile flow at 0.3mL /min rate were used to separate the substances. The retention times for 4-Aminopheno, Paracetamol, Guaifenesin, Methocarbamol, and 4-Chloroacetanilide were 1.319 minute, 2.224 minute, 4.467 minute, 4.769 minute and 5.433 minute respectively. The concentration was linear in the range of 2-100 µg/ml for Methocarbamol, and 1-100 µg/mL for Paracetamol. The percentage recoveries were between 99.28±1.23% to 100.57±0.99% for Methocarbamol, and between 99.08±1.23% to 101.23±1.39% for Paracetamol. Results and Discussion: The validated optimal protocol is robust and accurate for simultaneous analysis of Methocarbamol, Paracetamol and the related substances, applicable for bulk powder as well as pharmaceutical formulation. Conclusion: In this paper, a highly sensitive, accurate, and precise UPLC method with UV-Vis detection was developed and validated for quality control of MET and PAR in bulk as well as in pharmaceutical preparations.

Introduction:This paper presents the development and validation of a novel, fast, sensitive and accurate high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method for the simultaneous quantitative determination of dibucaine HCl, fluocortolone pivalate and fluocortolone caproate in pharmaceutical preparations.Experiment:Development of the chromatographic method was based on an experimental design approach. A five-level-three-factor central composite design requiring 20 experiments in this optimization study was performed in order to evaluate the effects of three independent variances including mobile phase ratio, flow rate and amount of acid in the mobile phase.Conclusion:The optimum composition for mobile phase was found as a methanol:water:acetic acid mixture at 71.6 : 26.4 : 2 (v/v/v) ratio and optimum separation was acquired by isocratic elution with a flow rate of 1.3 mL/min. The analytes were detected using a UV detector at 240 nm. The developed method was validated in terms of linearity, precision, accuracy, limit of detection/quantitation and solution stability and successfully applied to the determination of dibucaine HCl, fluocortolone pivalate and fluocortolone caproate in pharmaceutical topical formulations such as suppositories and ointments.

Abstract We used paired-ion high-performance liquid chromatography to determine the 4-nitrophenol content of 4-nitrophenyl phosphate, a substrate for alkaline phosphatase analysis. This was done on a reversed-phase column with a mobile phase of methanol/water, 45/55 by vol, containing 3 ml of tetrabutylammonium phosphate reagent per 200 ml of solvent. At a flow rate of 1 ml/min, 4-nitrophenol was eluted at 9 min and monitored at 404 nm; 4-nitrophenyl phosphate was eluted at 5 min and could be monitored at 311 nm. Samples of 4-nitrophenyl phosphate obtained from several sources contained 0.3 to 7.8 mole of 4-nitrophenol per mole of 4-nitrophenyl phosphate.
