Abstract The purpose of this work was to study the stability behavior of doxofylline under different stress conditions and to develop a sensitive stability-indicating HPLC assay method. The stress conditions applied included heat, moisture, acid-base hydrolysis, oxidation, and UV light. The drug was particularly labile under oxidative and thermal stress conditions, with 58.40 and 53.90% degradation, respectively. Good resolution of drug from degradation products formed under stress conditions was achieved on a C18 column using 10 mM KH2PO4 buffer solution (pH 6) methanol (40 + 60, v/v) as the mobile phase (pH 7.2). The flow rate was 1 mL/min, and the detection wavelength was 273 nm. The method was validated for linearity, range, precision, accuracy, LOD, and LOQ. The RSD was found to be <2%. Since the method effectively separates the drug from its degradation products, it can be used as a stability-indicating method.

A simple, economic and time-efficient stability-indicating, reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic (RP-HPLC) method has been developed for analysis of silver lactate in the presence of degradation products generated by decomposition. When silver lactate was subjected to acid hydrolysis, base hydrolysis, oxidative, photolytic, humidity and thermal stress, degradation was observed during base hydrolysis, oxidation, humidity and thermal stress. The drug was found to be stable to other stress conditions. Successful chromatographic condition of the drug from the degradation products formed under stress conditions was achieved on a phenomenex Gemini column with potassium dihydrogen phosphate buffer, pH adjusted to 2.2 with orthophosphoric acid, as mobile phase. The method was validated for linearity, precision, specificity and robustness and can be used for quality-control during manufacture and assessment of the stability of samples of silver lactate. To the best of our knowledge, a validated stability-indicating LC assay method for silver lactate based on lactic acid is reported for the first time.

Abstract The purpose of this work was to develop a sensitive, selective, and validated stability-indicating high-performance liquid chromatographic (LC) assay of atorvastatin (ATV) in bulk drug and tablet form. ATV was subjected to different stress conditions, including UV light, oxidation, acid-base hydrolysis, and temperature. ATV and its degradation products were analyzed on an Agilent Zorbax XDB C18 column using isocratic elution with acetonitrile0.02 M sodium acetate, pH 4.2 (45 + 55, v/v) for 25 min. The samples were monitored with fluorescence (FL) detection at 282 nm (excitation)/400 nm (emission). The response ratio of FL to UV detection (at 247 nm) for ATV was 1.66. The method showed good resolution of ATV from its decomposition products. The photodegradation products were separated by silica gel thin-layer chromatography using double development with ethyl acetaten-hexaneglacial acetic acidmethanol (40 + 55 + 0.5 + 4.5, v/v/v/v) followed by (39 + 55 + 0.5 + 5.5, v/v/v/v), and confirmed by LC-FL analysis. The FL response was linear over the investigated range for ATV. The linear range was 101200 ng/injection, and the limit of quantitation was 2.0 ng/injection.

Abstract An approach of forced degradation study was successfully applied for the development of a stability-indicating assay method for simultaneous determination of perindopril and indapamide in a formulation in the presence of its degradation products. The method showed adequate separation of perindopril and indapamide from their associated main impurities and degradation products. Separation was achieved on an XTerra<sup/> RP18, 5 µm, 150 4.6 mm id column at 55°C by using the mobile phase NaH2PO4 buffer (pH 2.0; 0.005 M)acetonitrile (75 + 25, v/v ) at a flow rate of 1 mL/min and UV detection at 215 nm. Comprehensive stress testing of perindopril and indapamide was carried out according to the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) guideline Q1A (R2). The specificity of the method was determined by assessing interference from the placebo and by stress testing of the drug (forced degradation). The drug was subjected to acid hydrolysis, base hydrolysis, oxidation, dry heat, and photolysis to apply stress conditions. There were no other coeluting, interfering peaks from excipients, impurities, or degradation products due to variable stress conditions, and the method was specific for determination of perindopril and indapamide in the presence of degradation products. The method was validated in terms of linearity, precision, accuracy, specificity, robustness, and solution stability. The linearity of the proposed method was investigated in the range of 2456 µg/mL (r2 = 0.9993) for perindopril and 7.517.5 µg/mL (r2 = 0.9992) for indapamide. Degradation products produced as a result of stress studies did not interfere with the detection of perindopril and indapamide, and the assay can thus be considered stability indicating.

A simple, inexpensive, rapid and novel stability indicating isocratic HPLC method has been developed and validated for quantitative analysis of ertapenem sodium in the bulk drug and in pharmaceutical dosage form. An isocratic separation of ertapenem sodium was achieved on Hypersil BDS C18 column (4.6 x 250 mm, 5 ? particle size) as the stationary phase with a flow rate of 1.2 ml/min and using a UV detector to monitor the eluate at 298 nm. The mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile : water (60:40v/v) and pH adjusted 2.9 by othophosphoric acid enabled separation of the drug from its degradation products. The method was validated for linearity, accuracy (recovery), precision, specificity and robustness. The linearity of the method was satisfactory over the range 2-10 ?g/ml (correlation coefficient 0.999). Recovery of ertapenem sodium from the pharmaceutical dosage form ranged from 99.97 to 103.7%. Ertapenem sodium was subjected to stress conditions [hydrolysis (acid, base), oxidation, photolysis and thermal degradation] and the samples were analyzed by this method. The forceddegradation study with ertapenem sodium showed that it was degraded under basic condition. The drug was stable under the other stress conditions investigated. Ertapenem sodium was found to be less stable in solution state, whereas it was comparatively much stable in solid state. The degradation products were well resolved from main peak. The forced degradation study prove the stability indicating power of the method and therefore, the validated method may be useful for routine analysis of ertapenem sodium as bulk drug, in respective dosage forms, for dissolution studies and as stability indicating assay method in pharmaceutical laboratories and industries.Dhaka Univ.

Background: Cefoperazone Sulbactam injection is a cephalosporin antibiotic with a β- lactamase inhibitor used in the treatment for intra abdominal infections, Urinary track infections, surgical infections, etc. The combination is not official in any of the pharmacopeia for their content and impurities determination. Introduction: The present study involves the development of a simple, rapid, accurate, sensitive and stability indicating RP-HPLC method for the quantitative estimation of Cefoperazone Sulbactam mixture and its impurities in bulk and pharmaceutical dosage forms. Methods: 0.005 M Tetrabutyl ammonium hydroxide buffer solution pH adjusted to 6.80 and Acetonitrile combination has been used in a gradient programme with a flow rate of 1.0 ml/min. The retention time of Cefoperazone and Sulbactam were observed at around 8.5 and 19.5 minutes respectively. The UV detection was carried out at a wavelength of 230 nm. The chromatographic separation was achieved using Waters xbridge C18-150*4.6 mm, 3.5 µm HPLC column. The method has been validated according to the current International Council for Harmonization (ICH) guidelines for the method validation parameters such as Specificity, linearity, range, accuracy, precision, robustness and sensitivity. Results: The validation results indicate that the method is specific, as the known impurities and other impurities formed during the forced degradation studies were not co-eluting with the main components. Moreover, all these impurities were found to be spectrally pure, proving the stability indicating power of the method. The linearity and range of the method is in the range of 0.01-150%, highly accurate (100.2%), precise (<1%) and robust. Conclusion: The proposed method was accurate and specific for the quantitative analysis of Cefoperazone and Sulbactam and their related impurities in the sterile mixture. Hence the proposed method can be used for the quantification of impurities in routine as well as stability analysis in the development as well as quality control laboratories.

A trouble-free, simple, specific and highly sensitive stability indicating phase HPLC method was developed for concurrent assessment of Daclatasvir and Sofosbuvir in pure and in their combined tablet formulation. An effectual separation was accomplished by using XDB Phenyl (250 x 4.6mm, 5µ,100 A0) column, mobile phase composition of Acetonitrile: buffer(0.1%v/v Trifluoroaceticacid in water) (50:50 v/v) and isocratic elution at a flow rate of 1ml/min and detection wavelength of 275nm. The extreme stress conditions like hydrolysis with acid and base, peroxide oxidation, thermal decomposition were used as per ICH specifications to assess the stability of the analytes in bulk and dosage forms. The retention times of Daclatasvir and Sofosbuvir were found at 2.8 and 3.7min respectively. The proposed method has linear response in the concentration ranges from 12 to 36µg/ml and 80 to 240 µg/ml for Daclatasvir and Sofosbuvir respectively. The detection and quantification limits calculated as 2.5μg/ml and 7.8μg/ml for DCL, 5.2μg/ml and 15.8μg/ml SOF respectively. All the method validation parameters were met the acceptance limits of Q2 specifications of ICH procedures. The degradation products produced by forced degradation studies were have good resolution from Daclatasir and Sofosbuvir peaks, which represents the methods stability. The proposed RP-HPLC method was highly sensitive, precise, stability indicating and economical. That’s why the method has the capacity to employ in the pharmaceutical manufacturing of Daclatasvir and Sofosbuvir and routine analysis in quality control department.

Abstract For type 2 diabetes treatment, combinations of drugs from the thiazolidinedione and sulfonylurea groups are now available in the same tablet or capsule. Therefore, a stability-indicating and validated HPLC method was developed for simultaneous determination of pioglitazone, rosiglitazone, and glipizide in combined dosage forms. The examined drugs were subjected to different conditions such as acid and base, temperature, and UV light, and degradation of pioglitazone and glipizide was observed under thermal and acidic stress. However, selectivity of the presented method for pioglitazone, rosiglitazone, and glipizide assay against their degradation products was confirmed. It was also demonstrated to be robust, resisting small deliberate changes in pH of the buffer, flow rate, and percentage of acetonitrile in the mobile phase. The presented method utilizes a LiChrospher RP18 column (125 4.0 mm), acetonitrile in phosphate buffer at pH 4.3 (40 + 60, v/v) as the mobile phase, and UV detection at 225 nm for pioglitazone/glipizide or 245 nm for rosiglitazone/glipizide. The method was validated with respect to linearity, precision, and accuracy. Finally, the elaborated procedure was applied for the QC of pioglitazone/glipizide and rosiglitazone/glipizide mixtures.

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 green, simple, and stability-indicating RP-HPLC method was developed for the determination of diltiazem in topical preparations. The separation was based on a C18analytical column using a mobile phase consisted of ethanol: phosphoric acid solution (pH = 2.5) (35 : 65, v/v). Column temperature was set at 50°C and quantitation was achieved with UV detection at 240 nm. In forced degradation studies, the drug was subjected to oxidation, hydrolysis, photolysis, and heat. The method was validated for specificity, selectivity, linearity, precision, accuracy, and robustness. The applied procedure was found to be linear in diltiazem concentration range of 0.5–50 μg/mL (r2=0.9996). Precision was evaluated by replicate analysis in which % relative standard deviation (RSD) values for areas were found below 2.0. The recoveries obtained (99.25%–101.66%) ensured the accuracy of the developed method. The degradation products as well as the pharmaceutical excipients were well resolved from the pure drug. The expanded uncertainty (5.63%) of the method was also estimated from method validation data. Accordingly, the proposed validated and sustainable procedure was proved to be suitable for routine analyzing and stability studies of diltiazem in pharmaceutical preparations.

Abstract This paper describes the development of a stability-indicating RP-HPLC method for duloxetine hydrochloride (DLX) in the presence of its degradation products generated from forced decomposition studies. The drug substance was found to be susceptible to stress conditions of acid, base, oxidation, wet heat, dry heat, and photodegradation. The drug was found to be stable to the dry heat condition attempted. Successful separation of the drug from the degradation products formed under stress conditions was achieved on a Phenomenex C18 column (250 4.6 mm id, 5 µm particle size) using acetonitrilemethanol0.032 M ammonium acetate buffer (55 + 05 + 40, v/v/v) as the mobile phase at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min at 40°C temperature. Quantification was achieved with photodiode array detection at 290 nm over the concentration range 0.25 µg/mL with mean recovery of 101.048 ± 0.53 for DLX by the RP-HPLC method. Statistical analysis proved the method is repeatable, specific, and accurate for estimation of DLX. Because the method could effectively separate the drug from its degradation products, it can be used as a stability-indicating method.
