Abstract A rapid, simple, and precise RPLC method was developed for the simultaneous determination of the widely used oral antidiabetic, metformin hydrochloride (MTF), with some commonly coadministered oral antidiabetics from different pharmacological classes—glipizide (GPZ), pioglitazone hydrochloride (PGZ), glimepiride (GLM), and repaglinide (RPG)—in bulk, laboratory-prepared mixtures and pharmaceutical formulations in the presence of metformin-reported impurity [1-cyanoguanidine (CNG)]. Chromatographic separation was achieved using isocratic elution mode with a mobile phase of acetonitrile: 0.02 M potassium dihydrogen phosphate (pH 3.17; 50–50, v/v) flowing through a CN Phenomenex column (Phenosphere Next, 250 × 4.6 mm, 5 μm) at a rate of 1.5 mL/min at ambient temperature. UV detection was carried out at 220 nm. The method was validated according to International Conference on Harmonization guidelines. Linearity, accuracy, and precision were satisfactory for concentration ranges: 0.175–350 μg/mL for MTF, 0.0525–105 μg/mL for GPZ, 0.125–250 μg/mL for PGZ, and 0.05–100 μg/mL for GLM and RPG. Correlation coefficients were >0.99 for all analytes. LOQs were 0.009 μg/mL for MTF, 0.009 μg/mL for GPZ, 0.04 μg/mL for GLM, 0.124 μg/mL for PGZ, and 0.044 μg/mL for RPG. The developed method is specific, accurate, and suitable for the QC and routine analysis of the cited drugs in their pharmaceutical products.

Abstract A new LC method is introduced with the concept of its versatile application to widely used drugs from different pharmacological classes. Metformin hydrochloride (MTF), sitagliptin phosphate (SIT), simvastatin (SIM) and ezetimibe (EZB) were simultaneously determined with a simple reversed-phase LC method in which a SIT–SIM binary mixture, present in a dosage form brand, was considered central for its development. Chromatographic separation was achieved with a mobile phase of acetonitrile and 0.02 M potassium dihydrogen phosphate (pH 5.2) (77 + 23, v/v) flowing through a C18 column (BDS Hypersil, 250 × 4.6 mm, 5 µm) at 1.2 mL/min at ambient temperature. UV detection was programmed to be carried out at 210 nm for EZB, SIT, and MTF, whereas SIM was detected at 240 nm. The method was validated according to International Conference on Harmonization guidelines. Linearity, accuracy, and precision were satisfactory over concentration ranges 4–40 µg/mL for EZB and SIM, 0.5–50 µg/mL for SIT, and 5–500 µg/mL for MTF. Coefficients of determination were >0.99 for the four drugs. LOQs found were 0.01 µg/mL for EZB, 0.02 µg/mL for SIT, 0.2 µg/mL for MTF, and 0.02 µg/mL for SIM. The developed method is simple, rapid, accurate, precise, and suitable for the routine QC analysis of the cited drugs in pharmaceutical products by conventional HPLC systems.

Abstract An analytical method was developed for the simultaneous determination of 11 aminoglycoside (AG) antibiotics, including amikacin, paromomycin, dihydrostreptomycin, gentamicin C1a, hygromycin, kanamycin, netilmicin, spectinomycin, sisomicin, streptomycin, and tobramycin in honey, milk, and pork samples by LC with tandem MS and molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) SPE. The AG antibiotics in milk and homogenated meat samples were extracted with a solution composed of 10 mmol/L potassium dihydrogen phosphate, 0.4 mmol/L EDTA-Na2, and 2% trichloroacetic acid. For honey samples, the extractant was 50 mmol/L potassium dihydrogen phosphate. The extracts were cleaned up with MIP SPE cartridges. The separation was performed on a zwitter ionic-HILIC column (50 × 2.1 mm, 3.5 μm), with the mobile phase consisting of methanol, 0.3% formic acid, and 175 mmol/L ammonium formate at 0.50 mL/min in gradient elution. A triple-quadrupole mass spectrometer equipped with an electrospray ionization source, which was operated in positive mode, was used for detection. The quantification was based on matrix-matched calibration curves. The method was applied to real samples with three different matrixes. The LODs of the method were 2–30 μg/kg and the LOQs were 7–100 μg/kg; the average recovery ranged from 78.2 to 94.8%; intraday RSDs and interday RSDs were ≤15 and ≤18%, respectively; and the absolute values of matrix effect for all AGs were RSDs ≤23%.

Abstract A simple, accurate, and precise LC method with a reversed stationary phase was developed and validated for the determination of perindopril (PER) arginine, amlodipine (AML), and indapamide (IND) alone and in binary mixtures (PER arginine is found in two dosage forms, i.e., with either AML or IND). Chromatographic separation was carried out on a BDS Hypersil® C18 column (100 × 3 mm, 5 μm). The mobile phase, consisting of 0.05 M potassium dihydrogen phosphate buffer (pH 2.6)–methanol (50 + 50, v/v), was pumped through the column whose temperature was maintained at 50°C at a flow rate of 0.6 mL/min using isocratic elution, and UV detection at 215 nm was performed. Acceptable values of linearity, accuracy, and precision of the method were found over the concentration ranges of 5–80 μg/mL PER, 2.5–80 μg/mL AML, and 0.5–20 μg/mL IND. The proposed chromatographic method was statistically compared to that of reference methods using one-way analysis of variance. The results showed that there was no significant difference between the methods. The developed method proved reliable for use in accurate QC of the drugs in their pharmaceutical preparations.

A simple, sensitive, and accurate RP-HPLC coupled with UV detector method was developed and validated for simultaneous determination of matrine and tinidazole in compound lotion. The chromatographic separation of the two compounds was carried out with a SinoChoom ODS-BP C18column (5 μm, 4.6 mm × 200 mm) analytical column, using a mobile phase consisting of 0.025 mol/L potassium dihydrogen phosphate (containing triethylamine 0.05%, v/v) and acetonitrile (80 : 20, v/v) at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. The detection was monitored at 210 and 310 nm for matrine and tinidazole, respectively. Total run time was 12 min, and the column was maintained at 25°C. The excipients in the compound lotion did not interfere with the drug peaks. The calibration curves of matrine and tinidazole were fairly linear over the concentration ranges of 10.0–100.0 μg/mL (r=0.9954) and 20.0–200.0 μg/mL (r=0.9968), respectively. The RSD of both the intraday and interday variations was below 1.5% for matrine and tinidazole. The proposed HPLC method was validated according to International Conference on Harmonisation and proved to be suitable for the simultaneous determination of matrine and tinidazole in compound lotion.

Abstract Two simple, accurate, and precise chromatographic methods have been developed and validated for the determination of dronedarone (DRO) HCl and amiodarone (AMI) HCl either alone or in binary mixtures due to the possibility of using AMI as a counterfeit of DRO because of its lower price. First, an RP-HPLC method is described for the simultaneous determination of DRO and AMI. Chromatographic separation was achieved on a BDS Hypersil C18 column (150 × 4.6 mm, 5 μm). Isocratic elution based on potassium dihydrogen phosphate buffer with 0.1% triethylamine pH 6–methanol (10 + 90, v/v) at a flow rate of 2 mL/min with UV detection at 254 nm was performed. The second method is RP ultra-HPLC in which the chromatographic separation was achieved on an AcclaimTM RSLC 120 C18 column (100 × 2.1 mm, 2.2 μm) using isocratic elution with potassium dihydrogen phosphate buffer with 0.1% triethylamine pH 6–methanol (5 + 95, v/v) at a flow rate of 1 mL/min with UV detection at 254 nm. Linearity, accuracy, and precision of the two methods were found to be acceptable over the concentration ranges of 5–80 μg/mL for both DRO and AMI. The results were statistically compared using one-way analysis of variance. The optimized methods were validated and proved to be specific, robust, precise, and accurate for the QC of the drugs in their pharmaceutical preparations.

Abstract A new HPLC method has been developed and validated for the simultaneous determination of ticarcillin (TIC) and clavulanic acid (CA) in pharmaceutical formulations. The HPLC separation was achieved on a -cyclodextrin column (Cyclobond I, 250 4.6 mm, 5 mm) with methanol16 mM pH 6.0 ammonium acetate buffer (50 + 50, v/v) mobile phase at a flow rate of 0.8 mL/min. Detection was at 220 nm. Validation of the method was performed by evaluating specificity, robustness, accuracy, and precision. The calibration curves were linear in the range of 1100 g/mL for CA and 2200 g/mL for TIC. The LOQs based on the standard regression lines were 0.42 and 1.42 g/mL for CA and TIC, respectively, and the LOD were 0.14 and 0.47 g/mL, respectively. Total recoveries of synthetic mixtures (CA:TIC = 1:10, 1:15, and 1:30) were 99.25100.99 for CA and 99.54100.82 for TIC. Compared with the U.S. Pharmacopeia method, the proposed method has the advantage of a relatively low flow rate and short analysis time. The proposed method was successfully applied for the simultaneous determination of these two drugs in sterilized H2O and 5 dextrose injection solutions.

A simple, rapid, and sensitive RP-HPLC method was developed and validated for the simultaneous determination of chlordiazepoxide (CDO) and mebeverine HCl (MBV) in the presence of CDO impurity (2-amino-5-chlorobenzophenone, ACB) and MBV degradation product (veratric acid, VER). Separation was achieved within 9 min on a BDS Hypersil phenyl column (4.5 mm × 250 mm, 5 µm particle size) using a mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile: 0.1 M potassium dihydrogen phosphate: triethylamine (35 : 65 : 0.2, v/v/v) in an isocratic mode at a flow rate of 1 mL/min. The pH of the mobile phase was adjusted to 4.5 with orthophosphoric acid and UV detection was set at 260 nm. A complete validation procedure was conducted. The proposed method exhibited excellent linearity over the concentration ranges of 1.0–100.0, 10.0–200.0, 2.0–40.0, and 2.0–40.0 µg/mL for CDO, MBV, VER, and ACB, respectively. The proposed method was applied for the simultaneous determination of CDO and MBV in their coformulated tablets with mean percentage recoveries of 99.75 ± 0.62 and 98.61 ± 0.38, respectively. The results of the proposed method were favorably compared with those of a comparison HPLC method using Studentt-test and the variance ratioF-test. The chemical structure of MBV degradation product was ascertained by mass spectrometry and IR studies.
