A stability-indicating LC assay method was developed for the quantitative determination of fenofibrate (FFB) in pharmaceutical dosage form in the presence of its degradation products and kinetic determinations were evaluated in acidic, alkaline and peroxide degradation conditions. Chromatographic separation was achieved by use of Zorbax C18 column (250 × 4.0 mm, 5 μm). The mobile phase was established by mixing phosphate buffer (pH adjusted 3 with phosphoric acid) and acetonitrile (30:70 v/v). FFB degraded in acidic, alkaline and hydrogen peroxide conditions, while it was more stable in thermal and photolytic conditions. The described method was linear over a range of 1.0-500 μg/ml for determination of FFB (r= 0.9999). The precision was demonstrated by relative standard deviation (RSD) of intra-day (RSD= 0.56– 0.91) and inter-day studies (RSD= 1.47). The mean recovery was found to be 100.01%. The acid and alkaline degradations of FFB in 1M HCl and 1M NaOH solutions showed an apparent zero-order kinetics with rate constants 0.0736 and 0.0698  min−1 respectively and the peroxide degradation with 5% H2O2 demonstrated an apparent first-order kinetics with rate constant k = 0.0202 per min. The t1/2, t90   values are also determined for all the kinetic studies. The developed method was found to be simple, specific, robust, linear, precise, and accurate for the determination of FFB in pharmaceutical formulations.

Abstract A stability-indicating HPLC assay method was developed for the quantitative determination of duloxetine (DLX) in a pharmaceutical dosage form in the presence of its degradation products, and kinetic determinations were evaluated in acid conditions and UV-C radiation exposure. Chromatographic separation was achieved by use of an ACE<sup/> C18 column (250 4.0 mm id, 5 m particle size). The mobile phase was prepared by mixing aqueous 50 mM potassium phosphate buffer (pH 6.0 containing 0.3 triethylamine) and acetonitrile (60 40, v/v). DLX was rapidly degraded in an acid medium and in the presence of hydrogen peroxide and UV-C radiation; it was more stable in alkaline medium. The described method was linear over a range of 4.014.0 g/mL for determination of DLX (r = 0.9998). The precision was demonstrated by the RSD of intraday (0.791.07) and interday (0.85) studies. The mean recovery was found to be 100.56. The acid degradation of DLX in 0.1 M HCl solution showed an apparent zero-order kinetics (k = 0.177 g/mL/min), and the photodegradation demonstrated an apparent first-order kinetics (k = 0.082 g/mL/min). The developed method was found to be simple, specific, robust, linear, precise, and accurate for the determination of DLX in enteric-coated pellets.

Abstract A sensitive, specific liquid chromatographic (LC) procedure was developed for determination of allantoin [(2,5-dioxo-4--imidaazolidinyl) urea or 5-ureidohydantion] in cosmetic lotion. A reverse-phase, ionsuppression mechanism separated allantoin from interfering constituents of the sample matrix, and the compound was determined with a UV detector at 240 nm with a sensitivity limit of ((.20 mg/mL. The chromatographic parameters were optimized for retention time, efficiency, and relative response to the analyte. The assay procedure was validated with spiked laboratory-prepared samples at 100 ± 15% levels. An average recovery of 99.4% with a relative standard deviation of 1.5% (n = 7) was obtained. The stability-indicating characteristics of the method were established by recovery study (99.8%) of samples spiked with known degradation products (urea, allantoic acid, and glyoxylic acid).

Abstract A simple, precise, and accurate isocratic reversed-phase (RP) stability-indicating column high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) assay method was developed and validated for determination of nebivolol in solid pharmaceutical dosage forms. Isocratic RP-HPLC separation was achieved on a Phenomenex Luna C8 (2) column (250 mm 4.6 mm id, 5 m particle size) using mobile phase composed of acetonitrilepH 3.5 phosphate buffer (35 + 65, v/v) at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min, and detection was performed at 280 nm using a photodiode array detector. The drug was subjected to oxidation, hydrolysis, photolysis, and heat to apply stress conditions. The method was validated for specificity, linearity, precision, accuracy, robustness, and solution stability. The method was linear in the drug concentration range of 40160 g/mL with a correlation coefficient of 0.9999. The repeatability relative standard deviation (RSD) for 6 samples was 0.69, and the intermediate precision (RSD) for 6 samples was 1.39. The accuracy (recovery) was between 98.57 and 99.55. Degradation products produced as a result of stress studies did not interfere with detection of nebivolol, and the assay can thus be considered stability-indicating.

The objective of the current study was to develop a validated stability-indicating assay method (SIAM) for risperidone after subjecting it to forced decomposition under hydrolysis, oxidation, photolysis, and thermal stress conditions. The liquid chromatographic separation was achieved isocratically on a symmetry C18 column (5 μm size, 250 mm × 4.6 mm i.d.) using a mobile phase containing methanol: acetonitrile (80 : 20, v/v) at a flow rate of 1 mL/min and UV detection at 280 nm. Retention time of risperidone was found to be . The method was linear over the concentration range of 10–60 μg/mL with a limit of detection and quantitation of 1.79 and 5.44 μg/mL, respectively. The method has the requisite accuracy, specificity, sensitivity, and precision to assay risperidone in bulk form and pharmaceutical dosage forms. Degradation products resulting from the stress studies did not interfere with the detection of Risperidone, and the assay is thus stability indicating.

Abstract The development and validation of a column high-performance liquid chromatographic assay method for the determination of aspirin and clopidogrel in tablet formulation are described. The combination formulation was subjected to International Conference on Harmonization-recommended stress conditions. Separation of the drugs from the degradation products formed under stress conditions was achieved on an octasilyl (C8) column using 0.3 orthophosphoric acidacetonitrile (65 + 35, v/v) mobile phase. The method was validated for specificity, linearity, limits of detection and quantification, precision, accuracy, and robustness. The method was found to be specific against placebo interference and during the forced degradation. The response was linear in the concentration range of 30.0120.0 g/mL for aspirin and 15.060.0 g/mL for clopidogrel, with a correlation coefficient of 0.9999 for both. The relative standard deviation values for intra- and interday precision were <2.0. The accuracy was between 99.12 and 99.83 for aspirin and 98.20 and 100.35 for clopidogrel. Stress testing showed degradation products that were well-separated from the parent compound, confirming the stability-indicating capacity of the method.

A novel stability-indicating high-performance liquid chromatographic assay method was developed and validated for quantitative determination of ciprofibrate in bulk drugs and in pharmaceutical dosage form in the presence of degradation products. An isocratic, reversed phase HPLC method was developed to separate the drug from the degradation products, using an Ace5-C18 (250?4.6 mm, 5 ?m) advance chromatography column, and methanol and water (90:10 v/v) as a mobile phase. The detection was carried out at a wavelength of 232 nm. The ciprofibrate was subjected to stress conditions of hydrolysis (acid, base), oxidation, photolysis and thermal degradation. Degradation was observed for ciprofibrate in base, in acid and in 30% H2O2. The drug was found to be stable in the other stress conditions attempted. The degradation products were well resolved from the main peak. The percentage recovery of ciprofibrate was from (98.65 to 100.01%) in the pharmaceutical dosage form. The developed method was validated with respect to linearity, accuracy (recovery), precision, system suitability, specificity and robustness. The forced degradation studies prove the stability indicating power of the method.

Abstract A stability-indicating RP-LC assay method was developed for the simultaneous determination of the cardiovascular drugs amlodipine and perindopril in the presence of degradation products generated from forced decomposition studies. The developed method is applicable for the determination of related substances in bulk drugs and simultaneous assay in a tablet pharmaceutical dosage form. Separation of the drugs and their degradation products was obtained using an RP Waters Spherisorb ODS1 column (250 × 4.6 mm id, 5 μm particle size) with the mobile phase acetonitrile–water (30 + 70, v/v) containing 15 mM phosphoric acid. The pH of the mobile phase was adjusted to 5.0. A flow rate of 1.2 mL/min was used for the separations, with detection at 215 nm. The chromatographic separation was performed at a column temperature of 45°C. Atenolol was chosen as the internal standard. Amlodipine and perindopril were exposed to thermal, photolytic, hydrolytic, and oxidative stress conditions, and the stressed samples were analyzed by the proposed method. Degradation studies showed that both compounds were degraded under these stress conditions. The method was found to be stability-indicating and can be used for the routine analysis of amlodipine and perindopril in the studied combined tablet dosage form.

The present paper describes stability indicating high-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC) assay method for Ozagrel in bulk drugs. The method employed TLC aluminium plates precoated with silica gel 60F-254 as the stationary phase. The solvent system consisted of toluene: methanol: triethylamine (6.5: 4.0: 0.1 v/v/v). The system was found to give compact spot for Ozagrel (Rf value of 0.40 ± 0.010). Densitometric analysis of Ozagrel was carried out in the absorbance mode at 280 nm. The linear regression analysis data for the calibration plots showed good linear relationship with r2 = 0.999 with respect to peak area in the concentration range 30 - 120 ng/spot. The developed HPTLC method was validated with respect to accuracy, precision, recovery and robustness. Also to determine related substance and assay determination of Ozagrel that can be used to evaluate the quality of regular production samples. The developed method can also be conveniently used for the assay determination of Ozagrel in pharmaceutical formulations. The limits of detection and quantitation were 4.069 and 12.332 ng/spot, respectively by height. Ozagrel was subjected to acid and alkali hydrolysis, oxidation, photochemical and thermal degradation. The drug undergoes degradation under acidic, basic, oxidation and heat conditions. This indicates that the drug is susceptible to acid, base hydrolysis, oxidation and heat. Statistical analysis proves that the method is repeatable, selective and accurate for the estimation of said drug. The proposed developed HPTLC method can be applied for identification and quantitative determination of Ozagrel in bulk drug and tablet formulation.
