For the gradation of Ezetimibe and Pitavastain in rabbit plasma, a highly sensitive and simple LC-MS/MS assay was developed and witnessed. The chromatographic conditions are isocratic with a waters symmetry C18 (150 x 4.6 mm, 3.5) column in isocratic mode. The detection was carried out using a mobile phase of 0.1 percent formic acid and 60:40 acetonitrile, and the detection was carried out using MS in a positive mode of electrospray ionisation. The valid approach was checked with a linear range of 10-200 ng/ml Ezetimibe and 2-40 ng/ml Pitavastain. The intraday and interday precision values were found to be within reasonable limits. The liquid extraction process is used to remove these drugs from rabbit plasma. And these drugs have been shown to be stable in freeze-thaw, autosampler, and benchtop tests in the future. The fluid chromatography coupled mass spectrometry strategy was approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for quantification of Ezetimibe and Pitavastain in rabbit plasma using D4–ezetimibe and D4–pitavastain as within norms using LC-MS consolidated with quadrupole spectrometer by electro shower ionisation process. The aim of this study is to evaluate the applicability of this approach to ezetimibe and pitavastain at different evaluation levels while taking into account various factors such as instrument stability, precision, and accuracy, sample preparation techniques, instrument calibration, recovery, and matrix effect by using Ezetimibe and Pitavastain, as well as their internal guidelines.

In present study, an advanced, simple and a rapid reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) method was developed for the quantitative determination of sulfasalazine in rabbit plasma. Sulfasalazine was separated using Chromatopak C-18 basic peerless (250 mm × 4.6 mm, 5μ) column in an isocratic mode using mobile phase consisting of the mixture of 10mM Ammonium acetate pH adjusted to 4.5 and acetonitrile (70:30 v/v) with a flow rate of about 1.0 mL/min at ambient temperature. An ultra-violet detection of sulfasalazine and the internal standard was carried out at 362 nm. Both sulfasalazine and internal standard (IS, 4-hydroxy benzoate) were extracted from plasma matrices with high efficiency using a simple protein precipitation method. The method was found to be highly selective with no carryover effects. Linearity of sulfasalazine was found with the range of 2.5-100 μg/mL with the value of r2 > 0.995 a correlation coefficient. At all three quality control levels, developed bioanalytical method was found as repeatable and reproducible as well. The average recoveries of sulfasalazine from plasma were in the range of 95.59-97.16%. The bioanalytical samples showed good and acceptable stability of sulfasalazine solution at different storage, packaging and handling conditions. Hence, in conclusion, the validated and developed HPLC-UV method could be effectively utilized for determination of sulfasalazine in pharmacokinetic studies involving novel formulations.

Methods: Chromatography was achieved on Discovery C18, 50 × 2.1 mm, 5 μm column. Samples were chromatographed in a gradient mode (eluent A (acetonitrile-water–formic acid, 5: 95: 0.1 v/v), eluent B (acetonitrile–formic acid, 100: 0.1 v/v)). The initial content of the eluent B of 8%, which increases linearly to 1.0 min to 100%, is maintained up to 1.5 min and returned to the original 8% to 1.51 min. The mobile phase was delivered at a flow rate of 0.400 ml/min into the mass spectrometer ESI chamber. The sample volume was 4 μl. Results: The total chromatographic run time was 2.0 min and the elution of urocarb and IS (etomidate) occurred at ~1.53 and 1.67 min, respectively. A linear response function was established at 1-100 ng/ml for urocarb and etomidate in human plasma. The % mean recovery for urocarb in LQC, MQC and HQC was 104.1 %, 100.0 % and 97.4 %. The lowest concentration with the RSD<20% was taken as LLOQ and was found to be 1.03 ng/ml for urocarb. The within-run coefficients of variation ranged between 0.271 % and 0.478 % for urocarb. The within-run percentages of nominal concentrations ranged between 99.12 % and 100.21 % for urocarb. The between-run coefficients of variation ranged between 0.388 % and 0.601 % for urocarb. The between-run percentages of nominal concentrations ranged between 98.78 % and 101.11 % for urocarb.

Background. Analytical method is increasingly implemented into fundamental pharmaceutical chemistry and analysis, considering their high sensitivity, accuracy, specificity and expressiveness. Objective. Metoprolol’s analytical method development was the research goal. Methods. The sources were world recognized journals (1990-2019) and key words used as filter were “metoprolol”, “spectrophotometry” “high-performance liquid chromatography, HPLC”, “quantitative analysis”, “validation”. Results. Chromatographic methods of analysis have the highest specificity and objectivity and allow qualitative and quantitative determination of Active Pharmaceutic Ingredient (API) in combined dosage forms and biological fluids without prior components separation. The main disadvantage of the described API analysis methods is long terms from the beginning of chromatography to API release and specific solvents used as the mobile phase in HPLC. New methods development and selection such chromatographic conditions that provide high speed and high efficiency at lower pressure of the system are essential. Also, the reduction of analysis time is achieved by simplifying the conditions for sample preparation. Conclusions. Analysts are constantly working on developing new analysis methods and their optimization in order to save time and consumables, which also ensures the efficiency of the developed method. There is no monograph on the substance or dosage forms of metoprolol in SPhU. Therefore, some of the developed methods should be suggested for the SPhU monograph, which is important for ensuring pharmacopoeial quality control of medicines in Ukraine.

Bioanalytical method Validation employed for quantitative determination of drug and their metabolites in biological fluids. Comprises all criteria determining data quality, such as selectivity, accuracy, precision, recovery and senstivity. The main purpose of method validation is to demonstrate that a specific Bioanalytical method can reliably determine the concentration of drug in study sample with high degre of confidence. Validation does not means that method is perfect, but validation means method has met a set of criteria to ensure that it is reliable and consistent. Tizanidine is a central alpha 2 adrenergic agonist –inhibits release of excitatory amino acid in the spinal interneurones. It may facilitate the inhibitory transmitter glycine as well. It inhibits polysyneptic reflexes reduce muscle tone and frequency of muscle spasms without reducing muscle strength. Following oral administration, tizanidine is essentially completely absorbed .The absolute oral bioavailability of tizanidine is approximately 40%, due to extensive first-pass hepatic metabolism. Tizanidine is extensively distributed throughout the body with a mean steady state volume of distribution of 2.4 L/kg following intravenous administration in healthy adult volunteers .tizanidine is approximately 30% bound to plasma proteins.

Development of a method is crucial for discovery, development, and analysis of medicines in the pharmaceutical formulation. Method validation could also be thought to be one in all the foremost well-known areas in analytical chemistry as is reproduced within the substantial variety of articles submitted and presented in peer review journals every year. Validation of an analytical procedure is to demonstrate that it's appropriate for its intended purpose. Results from method validation are often wont to decide the quality, reliability and consistency of analytical results. Analytical methods need to be validated or revalidated. This review describes general approach towards validation process and validation parameters to be considered during validation of an analytical method. It also refers to various regulatory requirements like WHO, USFDA, EMEA, ICH, ISO/IEC. The parameters described here are according to ICH guidelines which include accuracy, precision, specificity, limit of detection, limit of quantification, linearity range and robustness.
