A method for the determination of metformin hydrochloride (MH) in pharmaceutical formulations by capillary electrophoresis with capacitively coupled contactless conductivity (C4D) detection was investigated. The separation was achieved under normal polarity mode at 17.5°C, 30 kV, hydrodynamic injection (50 mbar for 8 s) and using a bare fused silica capillary 72 cm × 75 µm i.d. (detection length, 10.5 cm from the outlet end of the capillary). The optimized background electrolyte consisted of 10 mM 2-morpholinoethanesulfonic acid and 10 mM histidine, pH 6.8. C4D parameters were set at fixed amplitude of 100 V and frequency of 650 kHz. Under the optimum conditions, the method shows good linearity over the range of 10-30 µg mL-1 MH (r2=0.9971). Limits of detection and quantitation based on S/N ratio of 3 and 10 were 0.049 and 0.15 µg mL-1, respectively. The proposed method was successfully applied to the assay of MH in pharmaceutical formulations and establishing the dissolution profiles for both immediate and extended release formulations of MH.

The separation of six isoflavones (biochanin A, isoformononetin, formononetin, prunetin, daidzein and genistein) and coumestrol on an uncoated fused-silica capillary electrophoresis column was optimised using alkaline borate buffer as electrolyte and DAD detection. A baseline separation of all analytes except a pair, formononetin-biochanin A was achieved at pH 10.5 in 25 min. Detection limits were low (0.1 µg/ml) and the linearity of the detector response was established in the concentration range 0.4–60 µg/ml (180 µg/ml for coumestrol). Coumestrol was synthesized and the carbon signals in 13C-NMR spectrum of both coumestrol and di-O-acetylcoumestrol were assigned for the first time using two-dimensional HMQC technique.

AbstractA fast and accurate micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography (MEKC) method was developed for monitoring N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) exposure. Baseline separation of NMP and its main metabolites: 5-hydroxy-N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (5HNMP), N-methylsuccinimide (MSI), 2-hydroxy-N-methylsuccinimide (2HMSI), and 2-pyrrolidone (2P) was obtained within 6 min in an uncoated fused silica capillary using 5 mM phosphate buffer and 140 mM sodium dodecyl sulfate (pH 7.1) as background electrolyte (BGE). On-line UV-detection was performed at 200 nm and the applied electric field was 400 V cm−1. Possible interference of BGE-induced system peaks on separation was investigated by computer simulation and no such interference was observed. The developed MEKC method combined with solid phase extraction for sample preparation was successfully applied to the analysis of urine of rats exposed to NMP. The urinary excretion was determined in 0–6 h and 6–24 h specimens collected after an intragastic administration of 308 mg NMP / kg rat body weight. The results of NMP disposition kinetics in rat urine are reported for NMP and metabolites.

Abstract A novel, fast, sensitive, and specific capillary electrophoresis (CE) technique coupled to a diode array detector has been developed for the separation and simultaneous determination of carvedilol (CRV) and hydrochlorothiazide (HCT) in two combination formulations. The proposed method utilized a fused silica capillary (55 cm × 75 μm id) and the background electrolyte solution phosphate buffer (12.5 mM, pH 7.4)–methanol (95 + 5, v/v). The separation was achieved at 30 kV applied voltage and 24°C. Atorvastatin (80 μg/mL) was chosen as the internal standard. The described method was linear over the range of 1–200 and 0.2–150 μg/mL for CRV and HCT, respectively. Intraday and interday RSD (n = 6) was ≤1.4%. The LOD values of CRV and HCT were 0.26 and 0.07 μg/mL, respectively. The validated CE method was successfully applied to the analysis of two commercial tablet dosage forms. Forced degradation studies were performed on bulk samples of the two drugs using thermal, photolytic, hydrolytic, and oxidative stress conditions, and the stressed samples were analyzed by the proposed method. Degradation products produced as a result of stress studies did not interfere with the determination of CRV and HCT; the assay could, therefore, be considered stability-indicating.

Abstract Application of capillary electrophoresis (CE) has become a rapidly growing analytical technique for the estimation of drugs in pharmaceutical dosage forms and biological fluids. In this study, an effective and sensitive method was developed for the determination of escitalopram oxalate (ESC-OX) by CE with diode-array detection at 200 nm. The separation was achieved by a fused silica capillary with 40 cm effective length (48.5 cm total, 75 μm i.d.). The background electrolyte was composed of 15 mM phosphate buffer (pH 2.5). The applied potential was 22.5 kV, and the samples were injected at 50 mbar pressure for 10 s. Metoprolol was used as an internal standard (IS). The migration time under these optimum conditions was 6.51 ± 0.07 and 6.73 ± 0.08 min for ESC-OX and IS, respectively, with total run time 7 min. The method was validated for linearity, precision, accuracy, specificity and sensitivity. The limit of detection was calculated as 3.85 and 5.07 ng mL−1 for standard and urine samples, respectively. The developed method was employed successfully for the determination of ESC-OX in different pharmaceutical dosage forms and spiked human urine after simple liquid–liquid extraction with good recovery.

Linearity was kept in the concentration ranging from 1~31.25 mg·L-1of ferulic acid with correlation coefficient of 0.970. The average recovery was 97.56% and RSD value was 6.4%. The content of ferulic acid was 0.0855 mg/g (n=6).

Background: A micellar electrokinetic chromatographic (MEKC)/ indirect UV detection method with hydrodynamic and electrokinetic injection has been developed for the determination of pregabalin in the serum samples. Methods: Separation of the drug was achieved on Agilent capillary electrophorese in less than 5 min using a 50 cm × 75 μm i.d. uncoated fused-silica capillary and a background electrolyte (BGE) consisting of 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA, 10 mmol L-1), cetyl trimethylammonium bromide (CTAB, 1 mmol L-1) and tri-sodium citrate (4% w/v). The influence of various parameters on the separation such as separation voltage, injection time, cassette temperature, pH of BGE and organic modifier was investigated. Results: Method validation shown good linearity (R2> 0.999) in the range of 1.5-100 µg mL-1 of pregabalin. A limit of detection (LOD) of 0.8 μg mL-1 and a limit of quantitation (LOQ) of 2.6 μg mL-1 were reported for pregabalin. Conclusion: The proposed method was found to be suitable and accurate for the determination of pregabalin in serum samples.

High performance capillary electrophoresis (HPCE) on an uncoated fused-silica capillary column using a&nbsp;borate buffer at pH 9.2 as electrolyte and diode-array detection was developed for the determination of coumestrol in alfalfa. The linear detector response was established in the concentration range 0.76&ndash;140 mg.dm<sup>&ndash;3</sup>, the minimum detectable limit was 0.39 mg.dm<sup>&ndash;3</sup>, and migration time of coumestrol was 5 min. 3-Isobutyl-1-methylxanthin was used as an internal standard. Coumestrol was isolated by acid extraction employing a&nbsp;mixture hydrochloric acid-acetonitrile at 95&deg;C for 30 min followed by solid phase extraction. Relative standard deviations of reproducibility and repeatability were 1.77% and 5.49%, respectively. Spiking recovery value of 92% was achieved. Alfalfa, variety Morava, contains 148&ndash;248 mg.kg<sup>&ndash;1</sup>&nbsp;coumestrol in dry matter. The proposed method is useful for routine analyses.
