Method of Validation for Residual Solvents in Bisoprolol Fumarate by GC Technique

Validation is important technique for detection, progress and estimation of drugs for pharmaceutical analysis. Aim of this article was to check the progress and validation of the method employed for the Residual Solvents in Bisoprolol Fumarate by Gas Chromatographic technique. The objective of this protocol is to validate a GC method of analysis for detection and Quantification of Residual Solvents Methanol, Acetone and Methylene dichloride in Bisoprolol Fumarate. In the pharmaceutical industry, validation policy is more important for documented of validation, types of validation and validation policy. The method was developed accurately and validation parameters are explained. Chromatographic condition was GC- 2014, gas chromatograph equipped with FID detector, column: 30 m x 0.32 mm ID x 1.8 µm DB - 624 capillary column or equivalent and column temperature was 45°C (hold 7 minutes) to 250°C @ 40°C/minutes, hold at 250°C for 3 minutes. The parameters such as Accuracy, Specificity, Precision, Linearity and Range, Limit of detection (LOD), Limit of quantitation (LOQ), ruggedness, robustness and system suitability testing with residual solvent such as Methanol, Acetone and methylene dichloride. All validation parameters are used in the routine and stability analysis.

Domino aza/oxa-hetero-Diels–Alder reaction for construction of novel spiro[pyrido[3′,2′:5,6]pyrano[2,3-d]pyrimidine-7,5′-pyrimidine]

The unprecedented reaction of α,β-unsaturated N-arylaldimines with two molecular 5-arylidene-1,3-dimethylbarbituric acids in methylene dichloride at room temperature afforded unique spiro[pyrido[3′,2′:5,6]pyrano[2,3-d]pyrimidine-7,5′-pyrimidines] in moderate to good yields and with high diastereoselectivity.

Evidence of a female sex pheromone in Bradysia odoriphaga (Diptera: Sciaridae)

The existence of a sex pheromone of Bradysia odoriphaga Yang and Zhang was investigated prior to the possible development of a semiochemical-based monitoring system or tools for controlling this pest. In laboratory bioassays, live virgin females stimulated 91% of males to attempt to mate. Methylene dichloride washes of whole bodies and excised ovipositors of females attracted males in olfactometer assays. These results indicate the presence of a female sex pheromone in B. odoriphaga, with the ovipositor as its possible source.
