Background: Linifanib (LFB) is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor with antineoplastic activity. The existing methods for analysis of LFB in bulk and dosage forms do not meet the requirements of quality control (QC) analysis. Objective: The present study was devoted to the development of two methods with high throughputs for determination of LFB. These methods are 96-microwell plate assay with microplate fluorescence reader (MWP-FR) and high-performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection (HPLC-FD). Methods: The MWP-FR assay was carried out in white opaque 96-well assay plates and the native fluorescence signals of LFB were measured at 360 nm for excitation and 500 nm for emission. In the HPLC-FD, the chromatographic separation of LFB and quinine sulphate (QS) as internal standard (IS) was performed on μ-Bondapack CN HPLC column using a mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile:water (60:40, v/v) pumped at a flow rate of 1 ml/min in an isocratic mode. The fluorescence detector was set at 350 nm for excitation and 454 nm for emission. Results: The linear ranges of the MWP-FR and HPLC-FD were 1 – 12 μg/well and 10 – 500 ng/ml, respectively. The limits of quantitation were 0.85 μg/well and 8.24 ng/ml for MWP-FR and HPLC-FD, respectively. Both MWP-FR and HPLC-FL methods were successfully applied for the determination of LFB in both bulk and tablets. Conclusion: Both methods have high analytical throughputs, they are suitable for use in QC laboratories for analysis of large numbers of LFB samples, and are environmentally friendly as they consume low volumes of chemicals and solvents.

Background: Axitinib (AXT) is a member of the new generation of the kinase inhibitor indicated for the treatment of advanced renal cell carcinoma. Its therapeutic benefits depend on assuring the good-quality of its dosage forms in terms of content and stability of the pharmaceutically active ingredient. Objective: This study was devoted to the development of a simple, sensitive and accurate stabilityindicating high-performance liquid chromatographic method with ultraviolet detection (HPLC-UV) for the determination of AXT in its bulk and dosage forms. Methods: Waters HPLC system was used. The chromatographic separation of AXT, internal standard (olaparib), and degradation products were performed on the Nucleosil CN column (250 × 4.6 mm, 5 μm). The mobile phase consisted of water:acetonitrile:methanol (40:40:20, v/v/v) with a flow rate of 1 ml/min, and the UV detector was set at 225 nm. AXT was subjected to different accelerated stress conditions and the degradation products, when any, were completely resolved from the intact AXT. Results: The method was linear (r = 0.9998) in the concentration range of 5-50 μg/ml. The limits of detection and quantitation were 0.85 and 2.57 μg/ml, respectively. The accuracy of the method, measured as recovery, was in the range of 98.0-103.6% with relative standard deviations in the range of 0.06-3.43%. The results of stability testing revealed that AXT was mostly stable in neutral and oxidative conditions; however, it was unstable in alkaline and acidic conditions. The kinetics of degradation were studied, and the kinetic rate constants were determined. The proposed method was successfully applied for the determination of AXT in bulk drug and dosage forms. Conclusions: A stability-indicating HPLC-UV method was developed and validated for assessing AXT stability in its bulk and dosage forms. The method met the regulatory requirements of the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The results demonstrated that the method would have great value when applied in quality control and stability studies for AXT.

A specific, sensitive, and reliable high performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection (HPLC-FLD) was first optimized and then used in the simultaneous quantification of bergapten, imperatorin, notopterol, and isoimperatorin in rat plasma using osthole as the internal standard. Liquid-liquid extraction with ethyl acetate was employed in treating the rat plasma samples obtained. Separation was carried out with a Hedera™ ODS column (4.6 × 250 mm, 5 μm) by gradient elution at a temperature of 40°C. Excitation and emission of the fluorescence detector were set to 300 and 490 nm, respectively. The lower limits of quantification for bergapten, imperatorin, notopterol, and isoimperatorin in rat plasma were 4, 40, 4, and 2 ng mL−1, respectively. The intraday and interday precision and accuracy for the four coumarins were within acceptable criteria. The recovery of the method was satisfactory with a range of 80.3–114%. The validated method was successfully used for the simultaneous determination of the four coumarins in Notopterygium incisum extracts and also for the pharmacokinetic and excretion study of bergapten, imperatorin, notopterol, and isoimperatorin in rats.

Background: Simeprevir is one of the recently discovered drugs for treating hepatitis C which is one of the major diseases across the globe. Objective: The present study involves the development of a new and unique High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) method using fluorescence detection for the determination of simeprevir (SIM) in human plasma. Methods: Two methods of extractions were tested, protein precipitation using acetonitrile and liquidliquid extraction. A 25 mM dipotassium hydrogen orthophosphate (pH 7.0)/ACN (50/50; v/v), was used as mobile phase and C18 reversed phase column as the stationary phase. The chromatographic conditions were optimized and the concentration of simeprevir was determined by using the fluorescence detector. Cyclobenzaprine was used as an internal standard. Results: Recovery of the assay method based on protein precipitation was up to 100%. Intra-day and inter-day accuracies range from 92.30 to 107.80%, with Relative Standard Deviation (RSD) range 1.65-8.02%. The present method was successfully applied to a pharmacokinetic study where SIM was administered as a single dose of 150 mg SIM/capsule (Olysio®) to healthy individuals. Conclusion: This method exhibits high sensitivity with a low limit of quantification 10 ng mL-1, good selectivity using fluorescence detection, wide linear application range 10-3000 ng mL-1, good recovery and highly precise and validation results. The developed method can be applied in routine analysis for real samples.

Abstract A sensitive and selective high-performance liquid chromatographic method has been developed for the determination of tianeptine (Tia) in tablets. The method is based on derivatization of Tia with 4-chloro-7-nitrobenzofurazan (NBD-Cl). A mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile10 mM orthophosphoric acid (pH 2.5; 77 + 23) was used at a flow rate of 1 mL/min on a C18 column. The Tia-NBD derivative was monitored using a fluorescence detector, with emission set at 520 nm and excitation at 458 nm. Gabapentin was selected as an internal standard. Linear calibration graphs were obtained in the concentration range of 45300 ng/mL. The lower limit of detection (LOD) was 10 ng/mL at a signal-to-noise ratio of 4. The lower limit of quantitation (LOQ) was 45 ng/mL. The relative standard values for intra- and interday precision were <0.46 and <0.57%, respectively. The recovery of the drug samples ranged between 98.89 and 99.85%. No chromatographic interference from the tablet excipients was found. The proposed method was validated in terms of precision, robustness, recovery, LOD, and LOQ. All the validation parameters were within the acceptance range. The proposed method was applied for the determination of Tia in commercially available tablets. The results were compared with those obtained by an ultraviolet spectrophotometric method using t- and F-tests.

Abstract A highly sensitive high-performance liquid chromatographic method with fluorescence detection has been developed and validated in a single laboratory for the trace determination of trimetazidine (TMZ) in human plasma. Fluoxetine (FLX) was used as the internal standard. TMZ and FLX were isolated from plasma by protein precipitation with acetonitrile and derivatized by heating with 7-chloro-4-nitrobenzo-2-oxa-1,3-diazole in pH 8 borate buffer at 70C for 30 min. Separations were performed in the isocratic mode on a Nucleosil CN column with the mobile phase acetonitrile10 mM sodium acetate buffer (pH 3.5)methanol (47 + 47 + 6, v/v/v) at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. The derivatized samples were excited at 470 nm and monitored at an emission wavelength of 530 nm. Under the optimum chromatographic conditions, a linear relationship with a good correlation coefficient (r 0.9997, n 5) was obtained for the peak area ratio of TMZ to FLX and for TMZ concentrations of 1120 ng/mL. The proposed method has the lowest limits of detection and quantitation reported to date for the determination of TMZ in plasma with values of 0.3 and 0.95 ng/mL, respectively. The values for intra- and interassay precision were satisfactory; the relative standard deviations were 4.04. The accuracy of the method was demonstrated; the recoveries of TMZ from spiked human plasma were 98.13102.83 0.24.04. The method has high throughput because of its simple sample preparation procedure and short run time (<10 min). The results demonstrated that the proposed method would have great value when applied in pharmacokinetic studies for TMZ.

Abstract A procedure was developed for the determination of the analgesic components of Spasmomigraine® tablets, which are ergotamine (I), propyphenazone (II), caffeine (III), camylofin (IV), and mecloxamine (V). They were subjected to high-performance liquid chromatography on a column (300 × 3.9 mm, 10 μm particle size) packed with μ-Bondapak C18. Separations were achieved with the mobile phase methanol–water–triethylamine (60 + 40 + 0.1, v/v/v) flowing at a rate of 1.5 mL/min, and quantitative determination was performed at 254 nm at ambient temperature for I–III; acetonitrile–25 mM KH2PO4–acetic acid (45 + 55 + 0.2, v/v/v), flowing at a rate of 1.5 mL/min and detection at 234 nm at ambient temperature, was used for IV and V. Methyl paraben was used as an internal standard. The detection limits were 0.35 (I), 5.0 (II), 1.5 (III), 3.0 (IV), and 2.0 g/mL (V). The method was accurate (mean recovery 98 ± 2%, n = 4) and precise (coefficient of variation <5%, n = 5). The proposed method is rapid and sensitive and, therefore, suitable for the routine control of these ingredients in multicomponent dosage forms.

The aim of this paper is to develop sensitive, accurate, reproducible and robust RP-HPLC with fluorescence detection for estimation of donepezil (DZ) in rabbit plasma using silodosin as the internal standard (IS). The prepared samples were quantified on reversed phase column Luna C 18(2) (150 × 4.6 mm i.d., 5 µm particle size) operated at room temperature using the mobile phase consisting of methanol: 0.1% acetic acid (50 : 50, v/v) at a flow rate of 1 ml min −1 . The method was fully validated according to bioanalytical validation guidelines of FDA in terms of system suitability, selectivity, sensitivity, precision and stability. It was found that the increase in peak areas followed the increase of DZ concentration in the range of 2.56–200.00 ng ml −1 with LOD of 0.85 ng ml −1 . The method was successfully applied for the determination of DZ in rabbit plasma using manual shaking dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction.

A new method of determination of malachite green (MG) in sediment has been developed by high performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection (HPLC-FLD). It is based on use of a deoxidation reaction which converts malachite green (MG) into LMG in the process of extraction. The sediment samples were extracted with a solution of formic acid and acetonitrile. Clean up and isolation was performed on MCX solid phase extraction (SPE) column. Chromatographic separation was achieved by using C18column with an isocratic mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile and ammonium acetate buffer (0.05 M, pH 4.5) (80:20, v/v). High performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detector (λex=265 nm and λem=360 nm) was used for the determination of LMG. The recovery values of MG in sediment samples fortified with MG were determined by measuring the amount of MG in the samples, after carrying out deoxidation reaction with potassium borohydride, which converts the MG into LMG. Under the optimized conditions, the average recoveries of MG from sediment at three levels (1.0, 10 and 50 μg/kg) were 85.0% (range from 80.8 to 87.6%). Relative standard deviations (RSD) of recoveries at all fortification levels were less than for 9.57% for MG. The method detection limit obtained for MG was 0.5 μg/kg.
