Abstract An ultra-HPLC method for the determination of lutein and β-carotene in infant formula and adult nutritionals wasvalidated using both unfortified and fortified samples provided by the AOAC Stakeholder Panel on Infant Formula and AdultNutritionals (SPIFAN). All experiments showed separation of all-trans-lutein and β-carotene from their major cis isomers, apocarotenal, α-carotene, lycopene, and zeaxanthin. Samples spiked with all-trans-lutein and β-carotene showed no isomerization during sample preparation. Linearity of the calibration solutions correlated to approximately 0.8–45 μg/100 g (reconstituted basis) for samples prepared for the lowest sample concentrations. With dilutions specified in the method, the range can be extended to approximately 2250 μg/100 g. The LOD for both lutein and β-carotene was 0.08 μg/100 g, and the LOQ for both was 0.27μg/100 g. For all measurements in the range of 1–100 μg/100 g, repeatability RSD was ≤5.8% forlutein and ≤5.1% for β-carotene. For measurements >100 μg/100 g, repeatability RSD was ≤1.1% for lutein and ≤1.7% for β-carotene. Accuracywas determined by recovery from spiked samples and ranged from 92.3 to 105.5% for lutein and from 100.1 to 107.5% for β-carotene. The data provided show that the method meets the criteria specified in the Standard Method Performance Requirements for carotenoids (SMPR 2014.014).

Sample Preparation Procedure

Abstract A solid-phase extraction sample preparation procedure was developed for use with a high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method for biotin analysis. The HPLC method used a reversed-phase C18 column; chromatography run time was 8.5 min. After eluting from the column, biotin went through postcolumn reaction to form a conjugate with streptavidinfluorescein isothiocyanate, which was then detected by a fluorescence detector. This method was tested with infant formula, medical nutritional products, and vitamin premix samples.

Abstract Background Lutein, β-carotene, and lycopene are among the most common carotenoids present in human milk and are frequently added to infant formula and adult nutritionals. Objective A collaborative study was conducted to assess the interlaboratory performance of AOAC Official MethodSM2016.13 for the determination of lutein, β-carotene, and lycopene in infant formula and adult nutritionals. Methods Thirteen laboratories agreed to participate in the study and 10 laboratories from seven different countries reported results. The study samples included blind duplicates of 6 matrices fortified with lutein, 7 matrices fortified with β-carotene, and 1 fortified with lycopene. NIST SRM 1869 was included in the sample set as a reference material. Results After the removal of outliers and invalid data, the repeatability (RSDr) data was ≤10.0% for all-trans-lutein, ≤12.0% for total lutein, ≤4.2% for all-trans-β-carotene, ≤6.0% for total β-carotene, and 1.6% for total lycopene. Reproducibility (RSDR) was ≤14.8% for all-trans-lutein, ≤19.9% for total lutein, ≤15.3% for all-trans-β-carotene, ≤13.7% for total β-carotene, and 7.4% for total lycopene. Conclusions The repeatability and reproducibility values met the criteria in the Standard Method Performance Requirements (SMPRs) for β-carotene and lycopene and it was recommended that the method be approved as a Final Action for these analytes. Since the method did not meet the SMPR for lutein, it was recommended that it remain a First Action method for this analyte. Highlights AOAC Official MethodSM2016.13 was validated through a collaborative study to be accurate and reproducible for the determination of β-carotene and lycopene in infant formula and adult nutritionals.

Background: Allergic diseases are considered as the major burden on public health with increased prevalence globally. Histamine H1-receptor antagonists are the foremost commonly used drugs in the treatment of allergic disorders. The target drug in this study, loratadine, belongs to this class of drugs and its biometabolite desloratadine which is also a non-sedating H1 receptor antagonist with anti-histaminic activity being 2.5 to 4 times greater than loratadine. This study aimed to develop and validate a novel isocratic Reversed-phase High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (RP-HPLC) method for rapid and simultaneous separation and determination of loratadine and its metabolite, desloratadine in human plasma. Methods: The drug extraction method from plasma was based on protein precipitation technique. The separation was carried out on a Thermo Scientific BDS Hypersil C18 column (5μm, 250 x 4.60 mm) in a mobile phase of MeOH: 0.025M KH2PO4 adjusted to pH 3.50 using orthophosphoric acid (85: 15, v/v) at an ambient temperature. The flow rate was maintained at 1 mL/min and maximum absorption was measured using the PDA detector at 248 nm. Results: The retention times of loratadine and desloratadine in plasma samples were recorded to be 4.10 and 5.08 minutes, respectively, indicating a short analysis time. Limits of detection were found to be 1.80 and 1.97 ng/mL for loratadine and desloratadine, respectively, showing a high degree of sensitivity of the method. The method was then validated according to FDA guidelines for the determination of the two analytes in human plasma. Conclusion: The results obtained indicate that the proposed method is rapid, sensitive in the nanogram range, accurate, selective, robust and reproducible compared to other reported methods.

Abstract Reboxetine is used as a selective noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor for the treatment of major depressive disorders. It is effective in the treatment of severe depression and safer to use than traditional tricyclic antidepressants. In this study, a novel, simple, and rapid stability-indicating high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method for reboxetine methansulfonate was successfully developed and validated for the assay of tablets. The method was used to quantify reboxetine in tablets; it employed a C18 column (150 4.6 mm id) with an isocratic mobile phase consisting of methanolphosphate buffer (pH 7, 0.02 M; 55 + 45, v/v) at a flow rate of 1.0 μmL/min. Reboxetine was detected by an ultraviolet detector at 277 nm. The retention time of reboxetine was about 4.5 min. The developed HPLC method was validated with respect to linearity, precision, sensitivity, accuracy, and selectivity. The method was linear over the concentration range 150 g/mL (r 0.9999). The limits of detection and the quantitation of reboxetine were 0.1 and 0.3 μg/mL, respectively. The relative standard deviation values for intraday and interday precision were 0.781.01 and 1.081.37%, respectively. Selectivity was validated by subjecting a stock solution of reboxetine to neutral, acid, and alkali hydrolysis, as well as oxidation, dry heat treatment, and photodegradation. The peaks of the degradation products did not interfere with the peak of reboxetine. The results indicated that the proposed method could be used in a stability assay. The proposed method was successfully applied to the determination of reboxetine in tablets. Excipients present in the tablets did not interfere with the analysis.

Abstract The aim of the study was to develop a rapid, efficient, and cheap chromatographic method for determining four selected antihypertensive active flavonoid compounds in medicinal plants in Botswana. The determination of rutin, quercetin, and kaempferol in selected medicinal plants was conducted in less than 6 min using the developed reverse phase-high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) method with a 2.7 µm Ascentis C18 express column (150 × 4.60 mm i.d) at 340, 360, and 368 nm detection wavelengths and mobile phase of methanol and 0.068% of formic acid solution in isocratic elution. Validation results showed good selectivity, linearity (r 2 > 0.99), high percentage recoveries (90.2–104.7%), and precision (% RSD < 2) for n = 3, confirming suitability of the method for determination of the investigated flavonoids in Zingiber officinale (ginger). Application of the developed RP-HPLC method was performed in selected medicinal plants (Lippia javanica ) (mosukujane), Myrothanmus flabellious (galalatshwene), and Elephantorrhiza elephantina (mositsana) used to manage hypertension by herbalists in Botswana. M. flabellious a very commonly used plant for managing hypertension was found to contain highest amounts of rutin and myricetin, whereas nothing was detected for E. elephantina.

Abstract A simple high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method was developed and validated for the determination of coumarin-3-carboxylic acid analogues (C3AA) in rat plasma and a preliminary study on pharmacokinetics. Ferulic acid (FA) was used as the internal standard substance, and coumarin-3-carboxylic acid (C3A) was used as a substitute for quantitative C3AA. After protein precipitation with methanol, the satisfactory separation was achieved on an ODS2 column when the temperature was maintained at 30 ± 2°C. The correlation coefficient r in the C3A linear equation is equal to 0.9990. Pharmacokinetic parameters for t1/2, Tmax, Cmax, area under the curve (AUC)0-t, average residence time (MRT), apparent volume of distribution (V z/F) and clearance (Cl/F) were 1.89 ± 0.03 h, 0.39 ± 0.14 h, 1.81 ± 0.10 g· mL−1 ·h, 7.88 ± 0.24 g·mL−1·h, 3.23 ± 0.14 h, 0.43 ± 0.03 (mg·kg−1)·(g·mL−1)−1·h−1, respectively. The high performance liquid chromatography-photo diode array detector (HPLC-PDA) method established in this study can be used to separate and determine the content of C3AA in plasma of rats after 60% ethanol extraction by gavage. The plasma concentration-time curve and pharmacokinetic parameters reflect the absorption of C3AA in rat blood after oral administration to some extent.
