Objective: The main objective of this research work is to develop and validate a single reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) method. This method should becapable of quantifying all the known, as well as other possible degradation impurities of sodium nitroprusside (SNP) in its injection formulation. Methods: Of allmethod development trails, we have observed better separations between known and degradation impuritiesin Inert sustain C18, (250 x 4.6) mm, 5 µm column at 30 °C temperature. Isocratic elution was carried out by using pH 8.6 phosphate buffer and acetonitrile in the ratio of 65:35 %v/v with a flow rate of 0.8 ml/min. The detection was carried out at 220 nm, with an injection volume of 10 µl. Results: In the proposed method, SNP was eluted at 22.5 min. Nitrite, nitrate, and ferrocyanide were linear from 0.25 to 37 μg/ml, ferricyanide was linear from 1.0 to 37 μg/ml, and SNP was linear from 0.75 to 37 μg/ml. The % RSD for six spiked samples (precision)was found to be less than 0.5 %. Accuracy was performed for known impurities from LOQ to 150 % for a 0.5 % specification level. The resultswere found to be in the acceptance range of 90-110 %. The LOQ concentration of nitrite, nitrate, and ferrocyanide was 0.25 μg/ml each,LOQ offerricyanide and SNP was found to be 1.0 μg/ml and 0.75 μg/ml, respectively. The SNP injection samples were exposed to different degradation conditions, and the results were found specific in the proposed methodology. Conclusion: The proposed RP-HPLC method is specific, precise, accurate, linear, stable, and robust for quantification of known and other possible degradation impurities in SNP injection formulation.

An isocratic sensitive and precise reverse phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) method was developed and validated for the determination and quantification of hydrocortisone in controlled-release and conventional (tablets and injections) pharmaceutical preparations. Chromatographic separation was achieved on an ODS (C18), 5 μm, 4.6 × 150 mm, with an isocratic elution using a freshly prepared mobile phase of composition methanol : water : acetic acid (60 : 30 : 10, v/v/v) at a flow rate of 1.0 ml/min. The detection of the drug was successfully achieved at a wavelength of 254 nm. The retention time obtained for the drug was 2.26 min. The proposed method produced linear detectable responses in the concentration range of 0.02 to 0.4 mg/ml of hydrocortisone. High recoveries of 98–101% were attained at concentration levels of 80%, 100%, and 120%. The intraday and interday precision (RSD) were 0.19–0.55% and 0.33–0.71%, respectively. A comparison of hydrocortisone analyses data from the developed method and the official USP method showed no significant difference (p>0.05) at a 95% confidence interval. The method was successfully applied to the determination and quantification of hydrocortisone in six controlled-release and fifteen conventional release pharmaceutical preparations.

Background: Envisaging the poor solubility (56ng/ml) and permeability of tetrahydrocurcumin (THCC), it was formulated into lipidic nanostructures to enhance its bioavailability upon topical application to promote the healing process for skin inflammatory disorders. Lack of literature on suitable method for determining THCC per se and nanoformulations prompted us to develop a RP-HPLC method to detect the drug in its nanostructures and in pig ear skin post dermatokinetics. Objective: The present investigation aimed to develop a simple, precise and RP-HPLC method for the quantitative estimation of THCC in prepared lipidic nanostructures, its ointment and in skin homogenate obtained post dermatokinetic study. Method: THCC encapsulated nanostructures and ointment were formulated using modified emulsification method and embedded into an ointment base to enhance its spreadability and improve patient compliance. A fast and sensitive reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography method was developed using a Hypersil BDS reverse phase C18 column (4.6 mm × 250 mm, 5 μm) with mobile phase comprising tetrahydrofuran (THF) and 1 mgmL-1 citric acid (4:6), at a flow rate of 1.0 mLmin−1 with a run time of 20 min. Result: THCC nanostructures were successfully prepared using spontaneous microemulsification method. THCC was detected at 282 nm and revealed two peaks which were attributed to the keto-enol tautomerism in the molecule with retention times of 6.23 min and 11.06 min respectively. The assay of THCC in nanostructures and ointment was found to be 98.30% and 99.98% with entrapment efficiency 77.00±2.74 %. The dermatokinetic studies revealed sufficient release of THCC from its ointment up till 24 hr with a concentration of 1382 μgcm-2, for causing a therapeutic effect. Conclusion: The method was found to be reproducible and robust as shown by low coefficient of variation and a constant analyte/IS ratio. It was successfully employed for the estimation of THCC assay in nanostructures and it’s ointment and dermatokinetic analysis in skin.

Background. Indomethacin is considered a potent nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug that could be combined with Paracetamol to have superior and synergist activity to manage pain and inflammation. To reduce the gastric side effect, they could be combined with Famotidine. Methodology. A codrug of Indomethacin and Paracetamol was synthesized and combined in solution with Famotidine. The quantification of the pharmaceutically active ingredients is pivotal in the development of pharmaceutical formulations. Therefore, a novel reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) method was developed and validated according to the International Council for Harmonization (ICH) Q2R1 guidelines. A reverse phase C18 column with a mobile phase acetonitrile: sodium acetate buffer 60 : 40 at a flow rate of 1.4 mL/min and pH 5 was utilized. Results. The developed method showed good separation of the four tested drugs with a linear range of 0.01–0.1 mg/mL (R2 > 0.99). The LODs for FAM, PAR, IND, and codrug were 3.076 × 10−9, 3.868 × 10−10, 1.066 × 10−9, and 4.402 × 10−9 mg/mL respectively. While the LOQs were 9.322 × 10−9, 1.172 × 10−10, 3.232 × 10−9, and 1.334 × 10−8 mg/mL, respectively. Furthermore, the method was precise, accurate, selective, and robust with values of relative standard deviation (RSD) less than 2%. Moreover, the developed method was applied to study the in vitro hydrolysis and conversion of codrug into Indomethacin and Paracetamol. Conclusion. The codrug of Indomethacin and Paracetamol was successfully synthesized for the first time. Moreover, the developed analytical method, to our knowledge, is the first of its kind to simultaneously quantify four solutions containing the following active ingredients of codrug, Indomethacin, Paracetamol, and Famotidine mixture with added pharmaceutical inactive ingredients in one HPLC run.
