The present work aims to develop a precise, accurate and validation method to estimate berberine hydrochloride and indomethacin in gel formulations. In the present work, 50% phosphate buffer pH 7.4, 25% methanol and 25% ethanol blend was used as a solvent to increase the solubility of both the drugs. The analytical wavelength for berberine hydrochloride and indomethacin was 343 nm and 316nm, respectively. The method was validated for linearity, accuracy, precision, limit of detection, limit of quantification and robustness as per the ICH guidelines. The validated method was then applied in the diffusion study of the drugs from two different gel formulations. Beer’s law was obeyed in the concentration range of 4-14 µg/ml and 10-60 µg/ml for berberine hydrochloride and indomethacin, respectively. The method was found to be accurate and precise with relative standard deviation within 2% as per the ICH guidelines.

An accurate, precise, sensitive and reproducible High-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) and UV spectrophotometric methods were developed and validated for the quantitative determination of haloperidol (HPD) in bulk drug and pharmaceutical formulation. Different analytical performance parameters such as linearity, precision, accuracy, specificity, limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) were determined according to International Conference on Harmonization ICH Q2B guidelines. The RP-HPLC method was developed by the isocratic technique on a reversed-phase Thermo C18 (250 × 4.6 mm, 5µm) column with mobile phase consisting of Methanol: Acetonitrile (50:50v/v) at flow rate of 1.0 ml/min. The retention time for HPD was 2.238±0.3min. The UV spectrophotometric determinations were performed at 244 nm using 80% methanol as a solvent. The linearity range for HPD was 5-25 μg/ml for both HPLC and UV method. The linearity of the calibration curves for each analyte in the desired concentration range was good (r2 >0.999) by both the HPLC and UV methods. The method showed good reproducibility and recovery with percent relative standard deviation less than 2%. Moreover, the accuracy and precision obtained with HPLC co-related well with the UV method which implied that UV spectroscopy can be a cheap, reliable and less time consuming alternative for chromatographic analysis. The proposed methods are highly sensitive, precise and accurate and hence successfully applied for determining the assay and in vitro dissolution of a marketed formulation.

Aim: To develop an RP-HPLC method for the simultaneous estimation of methotrexate (MTX) and minocycline (MNC). Background: Different HPLC methods were reported for the estimation of MTX/MNC individually, but there is no report for the simultaneous estimation of both MTX and MNC in a simple method. Objective: The objective of the developed method is to utilize the method for the estimation of MTX/MNC in different pharmaceutical formulations and in biological fluids. Methods: An HPLC method for the estimation of methotrexate (MTX) and minocycline (MNC) relevance to the evaluation of nanoparticulate formulations has been developed and validated. Chromatographic estimation was achieved using the mobile phase composition of sodium acetate buffer and acetonitrile (70:30% v/v) at pH 4.0 at a flow rate of 0.2 mL/min at 307 nm. Results: The calibration curve for MTX and MNC was found to be linear at nanogram (5 to 25 ng.mL-1) and microgram (5 to 25 μg.mL-1) levels at a correlation coefficient range of 0.98 to 0.99 for both MTX/MNC. The lower limit of detection and limit of quantification were found to be 0.026 ng.mL-1 and 0.079 ng.mL-1 for MTX and MNC, respectively. The percentage relative standard deviation for validation parameters of both drugs was found to be less than 6.5%. The amount of MTX and MNC present within the nanoparticles was found to be MTX (0.84 mg/mL) and MNC (0.61 mg/mL). The in vitro release showed an immediate release pattern for MTX (64.95±2.08%) and MNC (90.90±1.78%) within 12 h. Conclusion: The developed analytical method for the simultaneous estimation of MTX and MNC was found to be simple, affordable, dynamic, low cost, rapid and easy to perform with good repeatability. This method is also time consuming, since the peaks were obtained within a moderate analysis time.

Abstract Background Bempedoic acid and Ezetimibe acid are used in combination for treatment of hypercholesterolemia. The current work was undertaken to develop a simple and rapid stability-indicating RP-UPLC method for the simultaneous estimation of Bempedoic acid and Ezetimibe in tablets as no such method was available. The chromatographic separation was performed with Waters Acquity C18 [50 × 2.1 mm, 1.7 μ] column using methanol: acetonitrile: water [50: 30: 20, by volume] as mobile phase pumped at a flow rate 0.5 mL/min. The separated analytes were detected at 260 nm using UV detector. Results The separation of Bempedoic acid (BA) and Ezetimibe (EZ) was done at a retention time of 1.827 min. and 3.577 min. respectively. The validation and stability studies of the present method were carried out according to the ICH guidelines. The linearity of the proposed method was in the range of 30–130 μg/mL and 5–50 μg/mL for Bempedoic acid and Ezetimibe respectively. Limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) were found to be 0.1216 μg/mL and 0.3685 μg/mL for Bempedoic acid and 0.1189 μg/mL and 0.3602 μg/mL for Ezetimibe respectively. The recovery of the method was found to be in the range of 99.89—100.31% for Bempedoic acid and 98.14—99.94% for Ezetimibe while the % RSD for both drugs in the precision and robustness study was less than 2.0. The drugs did not show any major degradants in the exposed conditions. Conclusion The developed method was found to be simple, sensitive, accurate, precise, robust, rapid and yet stability indicating. The method can be adopted for simultaneous estimation of Bempedoic acid and Ezetimibe in the pharmaceutical formulation.

Abstract A stability-indicating reverse phase high-performance liquid chromatography method was developed and validated for simultaneous quantification of apremilast (APL) and betamethasone dipropionate (BD) in bulk as well as drug loaded microsponges. Various mobile phase systems were screened to check the system suitability followed by force degradation analysis to determine APL and BD stability under varying stress conditions. A central composite design model was used to optimize the column temperature and flow rate using Design Expert® (9.0.1). One factor at a time approach with five independent factors were used to validate the robustness of the method. Finally, APL and BD were precisely and accurately quantified from drug loaded microsponges using the validated method. A favorable separation of APL and BD was obtained on a Phenomenex® Luna C18 column using a mixture of 50 mM phosphate buffer containing 0.1% triethylamine (pH 6.1) and acetonitrile (60:40%v/v) as mobile phase. Both the drugs were found to be stable when exposed to stressors such as heat-, light-, alkali-, acid- and peroxide-induced degradation. The calibration curves were found to be linear with appreciable limit of detection and limit of quantification. Recovery and percentage relative standard deviation of peak areas for APL and BD were found to be &lt; 2.0% and 99–100% in bulk drug solution and &lt;2.0% and 99–103% in microsponge formulation, respectively. Statistical analysis using analysis of variance indicated that the model was significant (P &lt; 0.001). Hence, the developed method can be effectively used to quantify APL and BD, both in bulk as well as microsponge formulations.
