An accurate, sensitive, precise and stability-indicating reversed phase high performance liquid chromatographic (RP-HPLC) method for the analysis of clopidogrel bisulfate was developed and validated. The chromatographic conditions comprised of a reversible phase C18 column (250 × 4.6 mm, 5 μm) with a mobile phase consisting of a mixture of 50 mM potassium di-hydrogen phosphate and acetonitrile in the ratio of 75:25 at pH 3.0 adjusted with phosphoric acid. The flow rate was 1ml/min, the detection was carried out at 247 nm and the retention time of clopidogrel was 6.5 min. Clopidogrel was subjected to acid and alkali hydrolysis, oxidation and photodegradation. The method was validated for accuracy, precision and robustness. The results indicate that the drugs are susceptible to degradation in different conditions. All the peaks of degraded products were resolved from the active pharmaceutical ingredient with significant different retention times. As the method could effectively separate the drug from its degradation products, it could be employed as a stability-indicating method.

A stability-indicating reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) method was developed for the determination of betaxolol hydrochloride, a drug used in the treatment of hypertension and glaucoma. The desired chromatographic separation was achieved on a Nucleosil C18, 4 μm (150 × 4.6 mm) column, using isocratic elution at a 220 nm detector wavelength. The optimized mobile phase consisted of a 0.02 M potassium dihydrogen phosphate: methanol (40:60, v/v, pH 3.0 adjusted with o-phosphoric acid) as solvent. The flow rate was 1.6 mL/min and the retention time of betaxolol hydrochloride was 1.72 min. The linearity for betaxolol hydrochloride was in the range of 25 to 200 μg/mL. Recovery for betaxolol hydrochloride was calculated as 100.01%-101.35%. The stability-indicating capability was established by forced degradation experiments and the separation of unknown degradation products. The developed RP-HPLC method was validated according to the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) guidelines. This validated method was applied for the estimation of betaxolol hydrochloride in commercially available tablets.

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.

Highly nutritious dairy products are ingested regularly by all ages of population. Adulteration of dairy products to enhance the inherent stability and acceptability to common consumers by different harmful and toxic ingredients like formalin, an unpermitted preservative, has been a burning issue in Bangladesh over the last few years. The aim of this paper was to analyze the concentration of formaldehyde in dairy products most commonly sold in Bangladeshi markets by a validated reversed phase high performance liquid chromatographic (RP-HPLC) method to reveal the on-going alarming scenario in a scientific way. After pre-derivatization with 2,4- dinitrophenylhydrazine, formaldehyde was detected at 345 nm using a C18 column with acetonitrile and water (45:55) as mobile phase at a flow rate of 2.0ml/min. The validated method has been applied to 41 marketed dairy products, including pasteurized milk, UHT milk, banana- mango- and chocolate-milk, flavored yoghurt, lassi, buttermilk, and skimmed milk. However, no formaldehyde was detected among the tested dairy products.Dhaka Univ. J. Pharm. Sci. 15(2): 187-194, 2016 (December)

Abstract This paper describes the development of a stability-indicating RP-HPLC method for the determination of atomoxetine hydrochloride (ATX) in the presence of its degradation products generated from forced decomposition studies. The drug substance was subjected to stress conditions of acid, base, oxidation, wet heat, dry heat, and photodegradation. In stability tests, the drug was susceptible to acid, base, oxidation, and dry and wet heat degradation. It was found to be stable under the photolytic conditions tested. The drug was successfully separated from the degradation products formed under stress conditions on a Phenomenex C18 column (250 4.6 mm id, 5 m particle size) by using acetonitrilemethanol0.032 M ammonium acetate (55 + 05 + 40, v/v/v) as the mobile phase at 1.0 mL/min and 40C. Photodiode array detection at 275 nm was used for quantitation after RP-HPLC over the concentration range of 0.55 g/mL with a mean recovery of 100.8 0.4 for ATX. Statistical analysis demonstrated that the method is repeatable, specific, and accurate for the estimation of ATX. Because the method effectively separates the drug from its degradation products, it can be used as a stability-indicating method.

A simple, reproducible and efficient reversed phase high performance liquid chromatographic (RPHPLC) method has been developed for the estimation of a recently approved anti allergic drug, amlexanox in oral paste dosage form. The separations were carried out on a Zorbax Eclipse XBD, C18 column (150 x 4.6 mm; 5?m) at a flow rate of 1.50 ml/min. by using mobile phase comprising of mixed buffer (pH adjusted to 6.50) and methanol (50:50 v/v). The injection volume was 10 ?l and the peaks were detected at 244 nm. The linear dynamic range found to be in the concentration range of 15-35 ?g/ml and coefficient of correlation was found to be 0.999. The %RSD value was below 2.0 for intra-day and inter-day precision which indicated that the method was highly precise. The LOD (Limit of detection) and LOQ (Limit of quantitation) were found to be 3.8 ng/ml and 12.5 ng/ml, respectively which revealed that the method was highly sensitive. The percentage recovery of amlexanox ranged from 99.31 to 99.75%, indicating the accuracy of the method and absence of interference from the excipients present in the formulation. The proposed method was simple, fast, accurate and reproducible and hence can be applied for routine quality control operations of amlexanox in oral paste dosage form.
