In this study, the modified stability-indicating RP-HPLC method was validated for quantitative analysis of amlodipine besylate in the presence of its impurity D (3-ethyl 5-methyl 2-[(2-aminoethoxy)methyl]-4-(2-chlorophenyl)-6-methylpyridine-3,5-dicarboxylate). The method was applied for the determination of an analyte in the tablets and irradiated samples packed in the primary packaging (Alu/PVC/PVDC blister packaging). The efficient chromatographic separation was achieved using a ZORBAX Eclipse XDB-C18 column (4.6×250 mm, 5 mm) with isocratic elution of mobile phase which consisted of acetonitrile:methanol:triethylamine solution (15:35:50, v/v/v) (pH 3.0). The flow rate of the mobile phase was 1 mL min-1, while the detection of amlodipine besylate was carried out at 273 nm. Amlodipine besylate and its impurity D were identified at the retention times of 16.529 min and 2.575 min, respectively. The linearity of the method with the coefficient of determination of 0.999 was confirmed in the concentration range of 10 - 75 µg mL-1 for amlodipine besylate. The limit of detection was 0.2 µg mL-1, while the limit of quantification was 0.66 µg mL-1. After UV and Vis radiation of the tablets packed in the primary packaging, the content of amlodipine besylate was reduced by 22.38% and 19.89%, respectively. The presence of new degradation products was not detected under the given chromatographic conditions. The photodegradation of amlodipine besylate followed pseudo-first-order kinetics. Based on the half-life of amlodipine besylate (38.4 days for UV radiation and 43.3 days for Vis radiation), it was concluded that amlodipine besylate in the tablets has satisfactory photostability after its packing in the Alu/PVC/PVDC blister packaging.

A simple isocratic reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatographic (RP-HPLC) method was developed for determination of oseltamivir active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in bulk drug and pharmaceuticals. The separation was achieved on a Purospher STAR® RP – 18e column with a mobile phase consisting of methanol- 0.02 mol l-1 phosphate buffer, pH 5, 50:50 (v/v). Chromatographic results demonstrated the specificity of the method for determination of oseltamivir in presence of degradation products generated in studies of forced decomposition. The limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) for oseltamivir phosphate were 0,0162 μg ml-1 and 0,0491 μg ml-1, respectively. The advantages of this method include simple sample treatment and short elution time (less than 6 min). Furthermore, using methanol instead of acetonitrile in a mobile phase composition considerably reduces the laboratory expenses, still retaining adequate sensitivity for routine analysis as well as for evaluation of potentially counterfeit Tamiflu® products.

The present study aims to develop a simple, accurate and specific stability-indicating RP-HPLC technique for the analysis of metoclopramide in the presence of its stress degradation products and characterization of degradation compounds by LC-MS/MS analysis. As per ICH Q1A-R2 guidelines, the drug was exposed to acid hydrolytic stress condition. Three degradation products were formed for MCP in acid hydrolysis. The liquid chromatography was processed on a Luna C18-(2) 100A,250×4.6mm 5micron column using an isocratic mobile phase consisting of 0.1% formic acid in water-acetonitrile (20:80, v/v) by adjusting the mobile phase at 1 ml/min flow rate with wavelength detection at 273 nm. The developed procedure was applied to LC-MS/MS (liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry) for the characterization of all the degradant components. Total new three degradation compounds were recognized and identified by LC-MS/MS. The developed RP-HPLC technique was validated as per the ICH Q2-R1 guidelines. Limit of detection and limit of quantification values of MCP were evaluated from the linearity graph and were found to be 5.23 µg/ml and 17.44 µg/ml. Accuracy study was established at 80.0, 100.0 and 120.0 µg/ml concentration levels and the findings were found in the range of 98.4% - 101.8%. The linearity of the technique was assessed over the drug concentration range of 50.0 µg/ml to 250.0 µg/ml and the regression equation, slope and correlation coefficient values were found to be y = 10618x + 1623.2, 10618 and 0.9996 respectively. The developed technique was uninterruptedly applied for the quantification of metoclopramide inactive pharmaceuticals.

Methods: An emulgel of 1 % mefenamic acid was prepared using carbopol 940 as a gelling agent and cremophor EL as an emulsifying agent. It was diluted with ethanol to make a sample concentration of 200 mg/ml. The method used a C18 column (5 µm; 250 x 4.6 mm) with the mobile phase, consisting of acetonitrile, acetic acid, and water in a ratio of 75:1:24. The column was maintained at 25 °C. The flow rate was 1 ml/min and the injection volume was 10 ml. The peak response was monitored by UV at 282 nm. It was validated for specificity, range, linearity, precision, accuracy, limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ). In addition, forced degradation (hydrolysis, oxidation and dry heat) was performed to determine the capability of the proposed method to analyze the chemical stability of the drug samples during storage. Results: The method was specific to the drug while other excipients did not interfere with the quantitation of mefenamic acid. It was linear in the concentration range of 1.29 to 806 mg/ml. LOD and LOQ were 4.88 and 14.78 mg/ml, respectively. Accuracy of the method was demonstrated by recovery experiments on the synthetic mixture method and the mean percent recovery was 101.10±1.56. Repeatability and intermediate precision were rugged with %RSD values of 1.30 and 1.07, respectively. The method could separate mefenamic acid from other degradation products of forced degradation. Conclusion: The HPLC method presented herein is simple, accurate, sensitive and reproducible for the determination of mefenamic acid in an emulgel. It is served as a stability-indicating method and can be used for the analysis of the drug during product development and stability studies.

A sensitive, precise, specific, linear, and stability-indicating gradient HPLC method was developed for the estimation of doripenem in active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) and in injectable preparations. Chromatographic separation was achieved on C18 stationary phase with a mobile phase gradient consisting of acetonitrile, methanol, and pH 5.2 phosphate buffer. The mobile phase flow rate was 0.8 mL/min, and the eluted compounds were monitored at 210 nm. The method is linear over the range of 0.335 to 76.129 µg/mL. The correlation coefficient was found to be 0.999. The numbers of theoretical plates and tailing factor for doripenem were 53021 and 0.9, respectively. Doripenem was subjected to the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) prescribed hydrolytic (acid, base, and neutral), oxidative, photolytic, and thermal stress conditions. Among all the above-mentioned conditions, the drug was found to be stable under photolytic degradation. Peak homogeneity data for doripenem in the chromatograms from the stressed samples obtained by use of the photodiode array detector demonstrated the specificity of the method for analysis of doripenem in presence of the degradation products. The performance of the method was validated according to the present ICH guidelines for specificity, limit of detection, limit of quantification, linearity, accuracy, precision, and robustness.
