Chondroitin sulphates belong to a group of naturally occurring glycosaminoglycans and play a role in many physiological processes including ageing and the effects of various diseases. Research into chondroitin sulphates has found that the most important analytes are 4- and 6-sulphated disaccharides. We developed an HPLC method for the separation and quantification of underivatized chondroitin/dermatan sulphates—unsaturated disaccharides (4- and 6-sulphated disaccharides). This method is based on the separation of disaccharides by amido as well as amino columns under acidic conditions. These columns enabled the successful separation of 4- and 6-sulphated disaccharides using 50 (amido column) and 25 mmol/L (amino column) phosphate buffer, pH 4.25 (detection at 230 nm), at retention times of less than 10 min. The limit of quantification was 0.5 μg/mL. The applicability of this method was demonstrated through analysis of unsaturated disaccharides produced from the enzymatic digestion of chondroitin/dermatan sulphates of the solubilized extracellular matrix produced from porcine urinary bladder and human umbilical cord.

Aim and scope: Due to the serious toxicological risks and their widespread use, quantitative determination of phthalates in cosmetic products have importance for public health. The aim of this study was to develop a validated simple, rapid and reliable high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method for the determination of phthalates which are; dimethyl phthalate (DMP), diethyl phthalate (DEP), benzyl butyl phthalate (BBP), di-n-butyl phthalate (DBP), di(2- ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), in cosmetic products and to investigate these phthalate (PHT) levels in 48 cosmetic products marketing in Sivas, Turkey. Materials and Methods: Separation was achieved by a reverse-phase ACE-5 C18 column (4.6 x 250 mm, 5.0 μm). As the mobile phase, 5 mM KH2PO4 and acetonitrile were used gradiently at 1.5 ml min-1. All PHT esters were detected at 230 nm and the run time was taking 21 minutes. Results: This method showed the high sensitivity value the limit of quantification (LOQ) values for which are below 0.64 μg mL-1 of all phthalates. Method linearity was ≥0.999 (r2). Accuracy and precision values of all phthalates were calculated between (-6.5) and 6.6 (RE%) and ≤6.2 (RSD%), respectively. Average recovery was between 94.8% and 99.6%. Forty-eight samples used for both babies and adults were successfully analyzed by the developed method. Results have shown that, DMP (340.7 μg mL-1 ±323.7), DEP (1852.1 μg mL-1 ± 2192.0), and DBP (691.3 μg mL-1 ± 1378.5) were used highly in nail polish, fragrance and cream products, respectively. Conclusion: Phthalate esters, which are mostly detected in the content of fragrance, cream and nail polish products and our research in general, are DEP (1852.1 μg mL-1 ± 2192.0), DBP (691.3 μg mL-1 ± 1378.5) and DMP (340.7 μg mL-1 ±323.7), respectively. Phthalates were found in the content of all 48 cosmetic products examined, and the most detected phthalates in general average were DEP (581.7 μg mL-1 + 1405.2) with a rate of 79.2%. The unexpectedly high phthalate content in the examined cosmetic products revealed a great risk of these products on human health. The developed method is a simple, sensitive, reliable and economical alternative for the determination of phthalates in the content of cosmetic products, it can be used to identify phthalate esters in different products after some modifications.

This study was designed to develop and validate a simple and efficient high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method to determine flunixin concentrations in Asian elephant’s (Elephas maximus) plasma. Flunixin was administered orally at a dose of 0.8 mg/kg, and blood samples were collected. Flunixin extraction was performed by adding an equal amount of acetonitrile to plasma and centrifuging at 4500 rpm for 25 minutes. The supernatant was removed, and flunixin was analyzed using HPLC-UV detection. Two methods were developed and tested utilizing two different mobile phases either with or without adding methanol (ACN: H2O vs. ACN: H2O: MeOH). Both methods showed excellent linearity and reproducibility. The limit of detection was 0.05 ug/ml and limit of quantification was 0.1 ug/ml. the efficiency of flunixin recovery was maximized by the addition of methanol to mobile phase (ACN: H2O: MeOH as 50:30:20) at 95% in comparison to 23% without methanol. In conclusion, adding methanol to HPLC methods for extraction of flunixin from elephants’ plasma yielded higher recovery rate than without methanol.

Abstract Here, we developed a novel high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method for quantification of perampanel in clinical practice and investigated the relationships between the plasma concentrations of perampanel obtained by this HPLC method and the CYP3A4*1G polymorphism. The developed HPLC method was validated based on US Food and Drug Administration. The developed HPLC method could be performed with a plasma volume of only 200 μL and had a limit of quantification (LOQ) of 2.5 ng/mL. The coefficients of variation (CVs) for intra- and inter-day assays were less than 10.4 and 7.2%, respectively, and the accuracy was <2.4% for both assays. A total of 12 patients who received 2 mg perampanel had C0 values ranging from 70.5 to 451 ng/mL, and the CV showed a large variation of 51.4%. No correlations were observed between the dose-adjusted C0 and the CYP3A4*1G polymorphism. This method was superior to previously reported methods in terms of plasma volume and LOQ and was clinically applicable. Perampanel showed high variations in individual plasma concentrations; however, individual differences could not be predicted from analysis of the CYP3A4*1G polymorphism before perampanel administration. Therefore, after beginning perampanel treatment, the dose should be determined based on the observed plasma concentration.

A simple, fast, and reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic (RP-HPLC) method has been developed and validated for determining of a cannabinoid derivate, which displays potent antihyperalgesic activity, 1-naphthalenyl[4-(pentyloxy)-1-naphthalenyl]methanone (CB13) into PLGA nanoparticles. Separation was achieved in a C18 column using a mobile phase consisting of two solvents: solvent A, consisting of acetonitrile : water : acetic acid (75 : 23.7 : 1.3 v/v), and solvent B, consisting of acetonitrile. An isocratic method (70 : 30 v/v), with a flow rate of 1.000 mL/min, and a diode array detector were used. The developed method was precise, accurate, and linear over the concentration range of analysis with a limit of detection and a limit of quantification of 0.5 and 1.25 μg/mL, respectively. The developed method was applied to the analysis of CB13 in nanoparticles samples obtained by three different procedures (SEV, FF, and NPP) in terms of encapsulation efficiency and drug release. Nanoparticles size and size distribution were also evaluated founding that NPP method presented the most lowest particle sizes with narrow-size distribution (≈320 nm) and slightly negative zeta potential (≈−25 mV) which presumes a suitable procedure for the synthesis of PLGA-CB13 nanoparticles for oral administration.

A novel easy stability indicating high performance liquid chromatography method has been developed for the concurrent assessment of trithioparamethoxy phenylpropene in combination with chlorpheniramine maleate using Luna C8 column with UV detection at 224 nm. The mobile phase comprised of 0.02 N phosphate buffer (pH 5.5) and acetonitrile (55:45 v/v) was delivered with a flow rate of 1.5 mL/min. The method was linear over the concentration range 6.25-18.75 μg/mL (trithioparamethoxy phenylpropene) and 1.5-4.5 μg/mL (chlorpheniramine maleate). The limit of quantification was 1.57 μg/mL (trithioparamethoxy phenylpropene) and 0.969 μg/mL (chlorpheniramine maleate). The calculated recoveries were 100.083-100.287% (trithioparamethoxy phenylpropene) and 99.827-100.277% (chlorpheniramine maleate). Trithioparamethoxy phenylpropene and chlorpheniramine maleate were subjected to forced stress like acid hydrolysis, base hydrolysis, thermal and oxidation degradation. The drugs were found to degrade in the applied conditions. The degraded products were resolved effectively from the trithioparamethoxy phenylpropene and chlorpheniramine maleate. The suggested stability-indicating HPLC method can be used for the quantitative evaluation of trithioparamethoxy phenylpropene and chlorpheniramine maleate in bulk medications and tablet formulations.
