A new, simple, and cost-effective TLC-densitometric method has been established for the simultaneous quantitative determination of acetylsalicylic acid and ascorbic acid in combined effervescent tablets. Separation was performed on aluminum silica gel 60F254 plates using chloroform-ethanol-glacial acid at a volume ratio of 5:4:0.03 as the mobile phase. UV densitometry was performed in absorbance mode at 200 nm and 268 nm for acetylsalicylic acid and ascorbic acid, respectively. The presented method was validated as per ICH guidelines by specificity, linearity, accuracy, precision, limit of detection, limit of quantification, and robustness. Method validations indicate a good sensitivity with a low value of LOD and LOQ of both examined active substances. The linearity range was found to be 1.50–9.00 μg/spot and 1.50–13.50 μg/spot for acetylsalicylic and ascorbic acid, respectively. A coefficient of variation that was less than 3% confirms the satisfactory accuracy and precision of the proposed method. The results of the assay of combined tablet formulation equal 97.1% and 101.6% in relation to the label claim that acetylsalicylic acid and ascorbic acid fulfill pharmacopoeial requirements. The developed TLC-densitometric method can be suitable for the routine simultaneous analysis of acetylsalicylic acid and ascorbic acid in combined pharmaceutical formulations. The proposed TLC-densitometry may be an alternative method to the modern high-performance liquid chromatography in the quality control of above-mentioned substances, and it can be applied when HPLC or GC is not affordable in the laboratory.

A new high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method for the simultaneous quantitative determination of active pharmaceutical substances and preservatives in a new dental medication has been developed. The optimization of HPLC method parameters was done through studies of a mobile phase composition and a detection wavelength. Our developing method uses an ACE C18 column (250 × 4.6 mm, 5 µm) and a gradient mode for separation with the acetonitrile and phosphate buffer solution (adjusted to pH 3.0) as mobile phases. The flow rate is 1 ml/ min, and the detection was set at 260 nm (DAD). The method was evaluated according to the ICH guidelines and the State Pharmacopoeia of Ukraine in terms of specificity, accuracy, linearity and precision (repeatability and intermediate precision). The limit of detection and the limit of quantification were also calculated. The developed method was put in place for the analysis of a combined dental gel to a quantitative determination of the APIs (choline salicylate, lidocaine hydrochloride) and preservatives (methylparaben, propylparaben).

The main purpose of the present study was to develop and validate a high performance thin layer chromatographic (HPTLC) method for quantitative determination of an antiviral agent, zanamivir in pure drug and diskhaler powder formulation. Chromatography was performed on aluminum TLC plates pre-coated with silica gel 60F254, employing a mixture of chloroform:methanol:ammonia (9.5:3.2:0.2,v:v:v) as mobile phase. The TLC scanner was operated in the absorbance mode at a wavelength of 230 nm for evaluation of chromatograms. The system has given well resolved peak of zanamivir (Rf = 0.56). The linearity of the method was established in the range of 20-300 ng/spot; correlation coefficient (r) was 0.9995. The low values of limit of detection and limit of quantification (12.4 and 37.5 ng/spot, respectively) have demonstrated the sensitivity of the developed method. The reported method was precise in both intra-day as well as inter-day analysis; % RSD of peak area was found to be less than 2%, and has an accuracy within 100 ± 2%. The developed method has a potential to quantify zanamivir from its diskhaler formulation without any interference from other components. The applicability of the method was demonstrated by excellent recovery of analyte (99.8%) from diskhaler formulation. The current analytical method can be applied for routine analysis of zanamivir in pure form and pharmaceutical formulation in quality control laboratories.

Aims: The aim of this study is to develop and validate an efficient method for the specific determination of L-ascorbic acid in citrus fruits and to compare it with a usual method, method using 2,6-dichlorophenolindophenol Methodology: The research for a specific method for determination of L-ascorbic acid has led to development and validation of High Performance Thin Layer Chromatography – Densitometric (HPTLC-D) method. The validation criteria evaluated are response function, determination reading wavelength, limit of detection, precision of the technique, limit of quantification and recovery rate. The validated method was applied to citrus juice samples for quantification of L-ascorbic acid. Then a 2,6-dichlorophenolindophenol titrimetric assay of L-ascorbic acid in the same sample was performed for comparison of method results. Results: HPTLC-D method showed improved sensitivity on 360 ​​nm scanner and a good linearity relationship between standard concentrations and absorbance responses. The regression coefficient obtained is R2 = 0.99. The limit of detection (LOD) and the limit of quantification (LOQ) are respectively 3 ng and 9.5 ng per deposit. The method also exhibited good repeatability and precision, with intra-day (n = 3) and inter-day (n = 4) coefficients of variation (CV) of less than 6%. Application of the HPTLC-Dmethod to citrus juices yielded a recovery rate ranging from 97% to 99%. Conclusion: Comparison of results of the two methods shows that the contents obtained by titrimetry are greater than those obtained by HPTLC-D by 42.25%. This is explained by the presence of other redox compounds which are dosed at the same time as L-ascorbic acid. HPTLC-D makes it possible to specifically dose L-ascorbic acid.

Abstract A novel analytical method, based on high-performance liquid chromatography with a UV (HPLC-UV) detection system for the sensitive detection of a genotoxic impurity (GTI) 5-amino-2-chloropyridine (5A2Cl) in a model active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) tenoxicam (TNX), has been developed and validated. The HPLC-UV method was used for the determination of GTI 5A2Cl in API TNX. The compounds were separated using a mobile phase composed of water (pH 3 adjusted with orthophosphoric acid): MeOH, (50:50: v/v) on a C18 column (150 × 4.6 mm i.d., 2.7 μm) at a flow rate of 0.7 mL min−1. Detection was carried out in the 254 nm wavelength. Column temperature was maintained at 40°C during the analyses and 10 μL volume was injected into the HPLC-UV system. The method was validated in the range of 1–40 μg mL−1. The obtained calibration curves for the GTI compound was found linear with equation, y = 40766x − 1125,6 (R2 = 0.999). The developed analytical method toward the target compounds was accurate, and the achieved limit of detection and limit of quantification values for the target compound 5A2Cl were 0.015 and 0.048 μg mL−1, respectively. The recovery values were calculated and found to be between 98.80 and 100.03%. The developed RP-HPLC-UV analytical method in this research is accurate, precise, rapid, simple and appropriate for the sensitive analysis of target GTI 5A2Cl in model API TNX.

Abstract Tigecycline (TIG), a novel glycylcycline antibiotic, plays an important role in the management of complicated skin and intra-abdominal infections. The available data lack any description of a method for determination of TIG in avian plasma. In our study, a selective, accurate and reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method was developed for the determination of TIG in turkey plasma. Sample preparation was based on protein precipitation and liquid-liquid extraction using 1,2-dichloroethane. Chromatographic separation of TIG and minocycline (internal standard, IS) was achieved on an Atlantis T3 column (150 mm × 3.0 mm, 3.0 μm) using gradient elution. The selected reaction monitoring transitions were performed at 293.60 m/z → 257.10 m/z for TIG and 458.00 m/z → 441.20 m/z for IS. The developed method was validated in terms of specificity, selectivity, linearity, lowest limit of quantification, limit of detection, precision, accuracy, matrix effect, carry-over effect, extraction recovery and stability. All parameters of the method submitted to validation met the acceptance criteria. The assay was linear over the concentration range of 0.01-100 μg/ml. This validated method was successfully applied to a TIG pharmacokinetic study in turkey after intravenous and oral administration at a dose of 10 mg/kg at various time-points.
