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 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.

Objective: To develop and validate novel more sensitive analytical methods for the concurrent quantification of metformin-canagliflozin and metformin-gliclazide in their bulk forms and in their pharmaceutical preparations. Methods: Two methods were developed based on several chemometric assisted spectrophotometric methods and a Reversed-Phase High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (RP-HPLC). The first method applies different spectrophotometric chemometric assisted methods, including ratio difference, derivative ratio and extended ratio subtraction method, while the second method describes a RP-HPLC separation of metformin hydrochloride-canagliflozin and metformin hydrochloride-gliclazide binary mixtures using a C18 column with a mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile: potassium dihydrogen phosphate (adjusted to pH 3) with sodium lauryl sulphate as additive in the ratio of 30:70 (%v/v) in isocratic elution mode at 1 ml/min. Results: The proposed methods were able to quantify each of the studied drugs in their binary mixtures with high percentage recoveries in both methods. The spectrophotometric methods were able to quantify each of metformin, canagliflozin and gliclazide in the ranges of 2.0-20.0 μg/ml, 1.5-40.0 μg/ml and 2.0-30.0 μg/ml, respectively. The RP-HPLC method produced well-resolved peaks at a retention time of 3.92, 6.92 and 9.10 min in the concentration ranges of 50.0-300.0 μg/ml, 5.0-50.0 μg/ml and 10.0-100.0 μg/ml for metformin, canagliflozin and gliclazide, respectively. The proposed methods were optimized and validated in accordance to the International Conference of Harmonisation (ICH) guidelines in terms of linearity, LOD, LOQ, precision and accuracy. Conclusion: The developed methods were found to be sensitive and reproducible methods for the simultaneous determination of anti-diabetic binary mixtures; metformin hydrochloride-canagliflozin and metformin hydrochloride-gliclazide. And thus were successfully employed for the quality control analysis of the pharmaceutical formulations of the studied binary mixtures.

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.

Abstract A mixture of piracetam and vincamine was determined by 3 different methods. The first was the determination of piracetam and vincamine using the ratio-spectra first-derivative (DD1) spectrophotometric technique at 209 and 293 nm in concentration ranges of 1045 and 214 g/mL with mean recoveries of 99.22 0.72 and 99.67 0.79, respectively. The second method was based on the resolution of the 2 components by bivariate calibration depending on a mathematic algorithm that provides simplicity and rapidity. The method depended on quantitative evaluation of the absorbencies at 210 and 225 nm in concentration ranges of 545 and 214 g/mL, with mean recoveries of 100.33 0.54 and 100.44 0.98 for piracetam and vincamine, respectively. The third method was reversed-phase liquid chromatography using 0.05 M potassium dihydrogen phosphatemethanol (50 + 50, v/v) as the mobile phase, with the pH adjusted to 3.5 with phosphoric acid. The eluent was monitored at 215 nm in concentration ranges of 5100 and 2200 g/mL, with mean recoveries of 99.62 0.67 and 99.32 0.85 for piracetam and vincamine, respectively. The suggested procedures were checked using laboratory-prepared mixtures and were successfully applied for the analysis of their pharmaceutical preparation. The methods retained their accuracy and precision when applying the standard addition technique. The results obtained by applying the proposed methods were statistically analyzed and compared with those obtained by the manufacturer's method.

An accurate, precise and robust RP-HPLC method was developed for the simultaneous estimation of strychnine and gallic acid. The markers were resolved using HiQ C18HS column with methanol and potassium dihydrogen phosphate buffer (10 mM, pH 3) (60:40 V/V) as mobile phase at flow rate of 1 mL per minute and run time of 6 minutes. Retention times of strychnine and gallic acid were 3 and 4.7 minutes, respectively at 264 nm. The linearity range for strychnine and gallic acid was found to be 0.5-3 μg/mL and 1-3.5 µg/mL, respectively with coefficient of linear regression greater than 0.99 for both the markers. The developed method was validated as per ICH Q2 (R1) guidelines and the results obtained were satisfactory. The method was applied for quantification of markers in marketed and In-house formulations of Agnitundi Vati, a polyherbal ayurvedic formulation. The developed method thus could be used for standardization of Agnitundi Vati and other herbal preparations containing these two markers.

Abstract A simple and rapid high performance liquid chromatographic method was developed for the separation and identification of amoxicillin, ampicillin, cloxacillin, dicloxacillin, methicillin, oxacillin, nafcillin, penicillin G potassium, and penicillin V potassium. The antibiotics were separated at ambient temperature on a Chromegabond 10 μm Cis column with acetonitrile-methanol-O.OlM potassium dihydrogen phosphate buffer, pH 4.7 (19 + 11 + 70), at 1 mL/min. A variable wavelength detector set at 225 nm, 0.16 AUFS, and a recorder set at 0.25 cm/min were used for the detection. Individual antibiotics and their mixtures were dissolved in the mobile phase and injected into the chromatograph through a 20 μL injection loop. Baseline separation was observed for virtually all 9 antibiotics. The entire mixture was resolved in less than 30 min. The method was sensitive, reproducible, and applicable to the qualitative analysis of commercial dosage forms.
