This study was aimed to investigate the degradation behavior and physicochemical stability of desvenlafaxine using reversed-phase ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-UHPLC) system. The chromatogram was developed on Eclipse XDB-C8 column (150 x 4.6 mm, 5μm). The eluents were monitored through a photo diode array plus (PDA+) detector at 210 nm using an isocratic method with a flow rate of 1.5 ml/min. Mobile phase composition was 30:70 v/v mixture of 0.1 % trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) in water and methanol. Forced degradation studies were performed on drug substance of desvenlafaxine as per International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) prescribed stressed conditions (Q1A(R2) and Q1B) using hydrolytic (acidic, basic, and neutral), oxidative and photolytic methods. The drug substance was found highly labile to acidic (0.5 N hydrochloric acid, 18.65 % degradation in 2 hours at 70°C), basic (1.0 N sodium hydroxide, 11.01 % degradation in 12 hours at 70°C) and oxidative (3 % hydrogen peroxide, 17.05 % degradation in 2 hours at 50°C) stressed conditions, but a great resistance was observed towards dry heat (maximum degradation 0.27 % in 10 days from ambient to higher temperature, 80°C), moist heat (maximum degradation 0.25 % in 2 hours at 80°C and 75 % relative humidity) as well as in photolytic degradation (maximum degradation 0.23 % in 10 days at UV light of 315 - 400 nm). A pseudo-first order kinetic was followed in acidic, basic and peroxide degradation methods which paved a way to calculate the half-life of the drug substance desvenlafaxine under ICH mentioned stressed conditions. The results were also statistically analyzed and the % RSD values were compared with recommended guidelines. Dhaka Univ. J. Pharm. Sci. 20(2): 167-176, 2021 (December)

The aim of the present work was to develop and validate an accurate, precise, simple, and efficient stability indicating Reversed phase High Performance Liquid Chromatography method for determination of an abrisentan and its process impurities in bulk and pharmaceutical dosage forms. The drug substance was subjected to stress conditions such as hydrolysis (acid and base), oxidation, photolysis and thermal degradation as per International Conference on Harmonization guidelines to study the stability-indicating profile of drug. Significant degradation was observed during acid hydrolysis and peroxide degradation. The chromatographic conditions were optimized using an impurity-spiked solution and samples generated from forced degradation studies. The method was developed using Agilent XDB-C18 (150×4.5mm, 5μ) column and 10mM NH4OAc (pH-5.2 adjusted with acetic acid): ACN as the mobile phase with gradient programme at a flow rate of 1 mL/min. effluents were monitored at 289 nm. The retention times were found as 25.945 min for IMP-1, 24.685 min for IMP-2, 23.83 min for IMP-3, 10.53 min for AMB, 5011 min for IMP-4 and 3.48 min for IMP-5. The mean recovery values were found to be 98.52-100.44% for AMD and its impurities. The degradation rate of AMB in acid, base, peroxide (oxidative) thermal and photolytic degradation processes was found in range 7-22%. The developed analytical method has been validated for specificity, linearity, precision, accuracy, and robustness which were within the acceptance limit according to ICH guidelines. The developed method was successfully employed for routine quality control and stability analysis of AMB in pharmaceutical dosage forms.

Objective: Noscof tablet is a fixed dosage combination formulation having diphenhydramine (DH), ephedrine (ED), noscapine (NP), and glycerol glycolate (GG). A sensitive, selective, accurate, precise, and stability-indicating reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) method with photodiode array detection has been developed and validated for simultaneous analysis of DH, ED, NP, and GG in bulk drug and Noscof tablets. Methods: Reversed-phase chromatographic separation and analysis of DH, ED, NP, and GG were done on an Altima C18 column with 0.01 M KH2PO4 buffer (pH 3.5) and acetonitrile (50:50%, v/v) as mobile phase at 0.8 ml/min flow rate in isocratic mode. Detection was performed at 260 nm. The method was validated in harmony with International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) guidelines. The tablet sample solution was subjected to diverse stress conditions using ICH strategy such as hydrolytic degradation (neutral - with distilled water, alkaline - with 2 N NaOH, and acidic - with 2 N HCl), oxidation (with 10% H2O2), photodegradation (exposing to UV light), and dry heat degradation (exposing to 105°C). Results: Using the above stated chromatographic conditions, sharp peaks were obtained for ED, NP, DH, and GG with retention time of 3.272 min, 4.098 min, 5.467 min, and 6.783 min, respectively. Good regression coefficient values were obtained in the range of 2–12 μg/ml for ED, 3.75–22.5 μg/ml for NP, 3.125–18.75 μg/ml for DH, and 25–150 μg/ml for GG. The quantification limits were 0.181 μg/ml, 0.187 μg/ml, 0.246 μg/ml, and 1.114 μg/ml for ED, NP, DH, and GG, respectively. The values of validation parameters are within the acceptance limits given by ICH. The ED, NP, DH, and GG showed more percent of degradation in acid condition and less percent of degradation in the neutral condition. The peaks of degradants did not interfere with the peaks of analytes. ED, NP, DH, and GG were assessed with a good percentage of the assay (near to 100%) and low percent relative standard deviation (<2%) in Noscof tablets using the proposed method. Conclusion: The stability indicating RP-HPLC method developed was suitable for quantifying ED, NP, DH, and GG simultaneously in bulk as well as in tablet formulation.

The aim of our current research was to synthesize some transition metal complexes of Naproxen, determine their physical properties, and examine their relative stability under various conditions. Characterizations of these complexes were done by 1H-NMR, Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), FT-IR, HPLC, and scanning electron microscope (SEM). Complexes were subjected to acidic, basic, and aqueous hydrolysis as well as oxidation, reduction, and thermal degradation. Also the reversed phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) method of Naproxen outlined in USP was verified for the Naproxen-metal complexes, with respect to accuracy, precision, solution stability, robustness, and system suitability. The melting points of the complexes were higher than that of the parent drug molecule suggesting their thermal stability. In forced degradation study, complexes were found more stable than the Naproxen itself in all conditions: acidic, basic, oxidation, and reduction media. All the HPLC verification parameters were found within the acceptable value. Therefore, it can be concluded from the study that the metal complexes of Naproxen can be more stable drug entity and offer better efficacy and longer shelf life than the parent Naproxen.

Abstract An isocratic HPLC method was developed and validated for the quantitation of methocarbamol in the presence of its degradation products. Quantitation was achieved using a reversed-phase C18 column at ambient temperature with mobile phase consisting of methanolwatertetrahydrofuran (25 + 65 + 10, v/v). The flow rate was 0.9 mL/min. The detection was by UV light at 274 nm. The proposed method was validated for selectivity, precision, linearity, and accuracy. The assay method was found to be linear from 159.0 to 793.2 g/mL (3.2 to 15.9 g injected). All validation parameters were within the acceptable range. The developed method was successfully applied to estimate the amount of methocarbamol in a veterinary injection.

In this work, two specific, sensitive, and rapid analytical methods were developed. One of them was for the determination of ketorolac in a hospital wastewater treatment plant where there is no interference with other organic substances; the other one was for the determination of the degradation kinetics in aqueous medium. Ketorolac was extracted from wastewater samples through solid-phase extraction (SPE) cartridges, then it was identified and quantified by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Ketorolac was detected in concentrations between 0.1376 and 0.2667 μg/L. Photolytic degradation was performed on aqueous solutions of ketorolac tromethamine reference substance, at a concentration of 50 μg/mL. Samples were in direct contact with ultraviolet light in a dark chamber, equipped with two mercury lamps (254 nm) at a radiation source of 15 W. The results of the photolytic degradation were adjusted to a first-order model, obtaining a half-life of 4.8 hrs.
