This work deals with up-to-date optimization of cholesterol content determination when saponification and extraction procedures as well as HPLC conditions were studied. As found, optimal conditions for saponification process were identified by 15 min heating in the presence of 0.015 L of methanolic KOH solution with a concentration 1 mol/L with subsequent 0.015 L n-hexane–chloroform binary mixture (1:1, v/v) double extraction. HPLC separation consisted of isocratic elution with flow rate of 0.5 mL/min mobile phase composed of acetonitrile/methanol 60:40 (v/v) and stationary phase Zorbax Eclipse Plus C18 column 2.1 × 100 mm, 3.5 μm particle size diameters with detector wavelength 205 nm. The method passed through in-house validation criteria and its suitability was verified by analysis of butter reference materials. In final, the average content of cholesterol content in butter was determined at 2271.0 mg/kg. Thus, the method is suitable for the determination of cholesterol content in butter and probably also in other dairy products.

The RP-HPLC separation was carried out by reverse phase chromatography on a Symmetry C18 (4.6 x 150 mm, 3.5 μm, make: XTerra) with a mobile phase composed of sodium dihydrogen ortho phosphate [pH 2.5] and acetonitrile in the ratio of 30:70 v/v in an isocratic mode at a flow rate of 1.2 mL/min. The run time was maintained for 8.0 min. The detection was monitored at 236 nm. The accuracy was calculated in human plasma and the % recovery was found 99.80 - 99.85 for famotidine and 99.56 -99.85.5 for ibuprofen and reproducibility was found to be satisfactory. The calibration curve for famotidine in human plasma was linear over 3.32 to 6.65 μg/mL and 100- 200 μg/mL for ibuprofen in human plasma respectively. The inter-day and intra-day precision in human plasma was found within limits. The proposed method has adequate sensitivity, reproducibility, and specificity for the determination of famotidine and ibuprofen in plasma. The LLOQ obtained by the proposed method in human plasma were 1.24 and 5.0 μg/mL for famotidine and ibuprofen respectively. The proposed method is simple, fast, accurate, and precise for the quantification of famotidine and ibuprofen in plasma as per the ICH guidelines.Kathmandu University Journal of Science, Engineering and TechnologyVol. 12, No. I, June, 2016, Page: 34-48

Abstract Allium sativum L (garlic) is an essential component of many polyherbal oils used in traditional systems of medicine. Allyl disulfide has been a major component found in vegetable oil macerate of garlic, and can be used as reliable marker for determination of garlic in oil macerates of garlic. The HPLC separation of allyl disulfide was achieved on a Phenomenex Luna C18 (25 cm × 4.6 mm id × 5 μm particle size) column using acetonitrile–water–tetrahydrofuran (70 + 27 + 3, v/v/v) mobile phase at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. Quantitation was achieved with UV detection at 298 nm over the concentration range 8–48 μg/mL. HPTLC separation of allyl disulfide was achieved on an aluminum-backed layer of silica gel 60 F254 using n-hexane mobile phase. Quantitation was achieved by densitometric analysis at 298 nm over the 200–1200 ng/band concentration range. The methods were validated according to International Conference on Harmonization guidelines.

Two simple, rapid, precise, accurate and robust (HPTLC and RP-HPLC) methods have been established for simultaneous determination of ofloxacin and prednisolone acetate in its combined ophthalmic formulation. HPTLC separation of two drugs was accomplished on a HPTLC aluminum-backed layer of silica gel 60 F254 using n-butanol: methanol: ammonia (60:10:30% V/V/V) as a mobile phase. The densitometric scanning was performed at 275 nm which showed Rf 0.43 for ofloxacin and 0.78 for prednisolone acetate, respectively. RP-HPLC separation of the two drugs was achieved on LC-GC Qualisil BDS C-18 column using mobile phase methanol: acetonitrile: 0.02 M potassium dihydrogen ortho-phosphate anhydrous (50:15:35% V/V/V), pH adjusted to 4.5 with triethylamine. Detection of both drugs was done at 275 nm. Aspirin was used as an internal standard (IS). The retention time for ofloxacin, prednisolone acetate and aspirin (IS), was found to be 4.36 min. and 6.60 min and 3.55 min, respectively. The proposed methods were successfully applied for the determination of both drugs in bulk and in combined ophthalmic formulation. Assay of both these methods were compared using student t-test.
