Objective: The aim of this study is to investigate the pharmacokinetics of benzoic acid, 4- [[(2-hydroxyethyl)amino]carbonyl], methyl ester in rats after intravenous and oral administrations at doses of 3 mL/kg. Methods: A rapid, high selective ultra-high performance liquid chromatographic electrospray quadrupole- time of flight mass spectrometry (UHPLC-ESI-Q-TOF/MS) method was applied to investigate the pharmacokinetics of benzoic acid, 4-[[(2-hydroxyethyl)amino]carbonyl]-, methyl ester with p-coumaric acid as internal standard (IS) in rats after intravenously and orally dosed. Results: The pharmacokinetic data of benzoic acid, 4-[[(2-hydroxyethyl)amino]carbonyl]-, methyl ester was analyzed in the two-compartment open model. The main pharmacokinetic parameters were, respectively, 36.474 μg·h/mL, 12.59 μg·h/mL (AUC0→∞), and T1/2α was 0.14 h, 0.359 h; T1/2β was 3.046 h, 5.646 h after intravenous and oral administrations. Conclusion: Benzoic acid, 4-[[(2-hydroxyethyl)amino] carbonyl]-, methyl ester was rapidly distributed in rat’s plasma with the absolute bioavailability of 34.5%.

Background: Curcumin (CUR), a natural isolated compound from turmeric, has been the promising star in fighting many diseases but the broad application of curcumin has been limited ascribed to low bioavailability. Objective: The aim of this study is to pursue the enhancement of curcumin bioavailability through co-administration of vitamin C. Methods: Such purpose was achieved through the analysis of curcumin pharmacokinetics by high performance liquid chromatography coupled with electrospray ionization - tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC - ESI - MS/MS). The plasma was separated on a C18 reverse phase column using acetonitrile and ammonium formate solution (pH 6.5; 2.0 mM) at 0.8 mL/min. MS/MS detection was carried out in negative mode using mass patterns of m/z 367.0 > 216.7 for curcumin and m/z 265.2 > 223.9 for internal standard (honokiol). Results: Successful application of the proposed method in the pharmacokinetic study presented clear changes in key pharmacokinetic parameters including the growth of AUC (0-t) up to 2.4 times, 2.2-fold increase of Cmax, 2.2-fold loss of CL, and 1.5-fold diminishment of t1/2. Conclusion: We developed an HPLC-ESI-MS/MS method for determination of curcumin in rat plasma and validated the improvement of bioavailability of curcumin through co-administration of vitamin C. We reasoned these changes to the inhibition of lipid peroxidation induced by the use of vitamin C. Such a simple strategy is possible to become an alternative for enhancing curcumin efficiency in practice.

Abstract "High-performance" liquid-chromatographic (HPLC) methods have been developed for identifying 1-substituted 2-alkyl-3-hydroxypyrid-4-one iron chelators in serum and urine. Ion pairing with heptane- or octanesulfonic acid in pH 2.0-2.2 phosphate buffer and reversed-phase chromatography were required to separate these compounds from endogenous compounds in both biological fluids. In both the 2-methyl and 2-ethyl series of 1-substituted compounds (H, methyl, ethyl, or propyl) the elution times increased in accordance with the n-octanol/water partition coefficients (propyl greater than ethyl greater than H greater than methyl). Urine samples were filtered (0.4 microns pore size) and injected either undiluted or after dilution with elution buffer. After the addition of internal standard, the plasma or serum samples were deproteinized by treatment with HCIO4, 0.5 mol/L, centrifuged, and the supernates were injected directly onto the HPLC. Using these procedures, we could identify 1,2-dimethyl-3-hydroxypyrid-4-one (L1) in the serum and urine of a thalassemic patient who had received a 3-g dose of the drug and in the urine of other patients who had received the same dose. One or more possible metabolites were also observed in the chromatograms of both urine and serum. The 24-h urinary output of L1 (0.22-2.37 g) and iron (10.6-71.5 mg) varied but there was no correlation between the two with respect to quantity or concentration. Instead, urinary iron output was higher in patients with a greater number of transfused units of erythrocytes. This is the first study in humans to show that L1 is absorbed from the gut, enters the circulation, and is excreted in the urine.

This paper describes a high-performance liquid chromatographic method for simultaneous estimation of nabumetone and paracetamol in binary mixture. The method was based on RP-HPLC separation and quantitation of the two drugs on hypersil C-18 column (250 mm × 4.6 mm) using a mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile and 0.05% aqueous acetic acid (70:30v/v) at flow rate of 1 mL min-1. Quantitation was achieved with PDA detector at 238 nm based on peak area with linear calibration curves at concentration ranges 5-25 µg mL-1for both the drugs. Naproxen sodium was used as internal standard. The method has been successively applied to pharmaceutical formulation. No chromatographic interference from the tablet excipients was found. The method was validated in terms of precision, robustness, recovery and limits of detection and quantitation. The intra and inter-day precision and accuracy values were in the acceptance range as per ICH guidelines.

A rapid, highly sensitive high performance liquid chromatographic method has been developed for the determination of finasteride(FNS) in bulk drug and in tablets. FNS was eluted from a ODS C18reversed phase column at laboratory temperature (30 ± 2°C) with a mobile phase consisting of methanol and water (80+20) at a flow rate of 1 mL min-1with UV detection at 225 nm. The retention time was ∼ 6.1 min and each analysis took not more than 10 min. Quantitation was achieved by measurement of peak area without using any internal standard. Calibration graph was linear from 2.0 to 30 μg mL-1with limits of detection (LOD) and quantification (LOQ) being 0.2 and 0.6 μg mL-1, respectively. The method was validated according to the current ICH guidelines. Within-day co efficients of variation (CV) ranged from 0.31 to 0.69% and between-day CV were in the range 1.2-3.2%. Recovery of FNS from the pharmaceutical dosage forms ranged from 97.89 – 102.9 with CV of 1.41-4.13%. The developed method was compared with the official method for FNS determination in its tablet forms.

Osimertinib, a new-generation inhibitor of the epidermal growth factor, has been used for the clinical treatment of advanced T790M mutation-positive tumors. In this research, an original analysis method was established for the quantification of osimertinib by ultra-performance liquid chromatography with time of flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-TOF-MS) in rat plasma. After protein precipitation with acetonitrile and sorafinib (internal standard, IS), they were chromatographed through a Waters XTerra MS C18 column. The mobile phase was acetonitrile and water (including 0.1% ammonia). The relative standard deviation (RSD) of the intra- and inter-day results ranged from 5.38 to 9.76% and from 6.02 to 9.46%, respectively, and the extraction recovery and matrix effects were calculated to range from 84.31 to 96.14% and from 91.46 to 97.18%, respectively. The results illustrated that the analysis method had sufficient specificity, accuracy and precision. Meanwhile, the UPLC-TOF-MS method for osimertinib was successfully applied into the pharmacokinetics of SD rats.

This study investigated the effect of co-ingesting Natal plums (Carissa macrocarpa) and Marula nuts (Sclerocarya birrea) on the bioaccessibility and uptake of anthocyanins, antioxidant capacity, and the ability to inhibit α-glucosidase. A Natal plum–Marula nut bar was made by mixing the raw nuts and the fruit pulp in a ratio 1:1 (v/v). The cyanidin-3-O-sambubioside (Cy-3-Sa) and cyanidin-3-O-glucoside content (Cy-3-G) were quantified using the ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UHPLC/Q-TOF-MS). Inclusion of Natal plum in the Marula nut bar increased the Cy-3-Sa, Cy-3-G content, antioxidants capacity and α-glucosidase inhibition compared to ingesting Marula nut separately at the internal phase. Adding Natal plum to the Marula nut bar increased bioaccessibility of Cy-3-Sa, Cy-3-G, quercetin, coumaric acid, syringic acid and ferulic acid to 80.2% and 71.9%, 98.7%, 95.2%, 51.9% and 89.3%, respectively, compared to ingesting the Natal plum fruit or nut separately.
