The chromatography was performed on a Purospher? Star, C18 (5 mm, 250 × 4.6 mm) column using acetonitrile: buffer (0.01 mM) (40:60, v/v, pH adjusted to 3.0), as a mobile phase. The mobile phase was pumped at a flow rate of 1.0 mL·min-1 and UV detection was performed at 240 nm. The method was validated for linearity, accuracy, precision and specificity. The method was applied to study the interaction between amlodipine and H1-receptor antagonists. These interactions were carried out in simulated gastric juice (pH 1), simulated full stomach (pH 4), blood pH (pH 7.4) and simulating GI (pH 9). The interacting drugs were heated at 37℃ with intermit-tent shaking and the samples were withdrawn every thirty minutes for three hours and drug contents were analyzed by RP-HPLC techniques. In most cases the in vitro availability of amlodipine was decreased. It was observed that the change in in vitro availability was pH dependent.展开更多

The experiment was determined on Waters HPLC instrument using 996 photo-diode array detector. The separation was done by using symmetry C-18 ODS (25 cm × 0.46 cm internal diameter) 5 μm analytical column containing mobile phase of Phosphate buffer (0.02 M) and methanol [65:35% v/v] adjusted pH to 4.8 by adding dilute ortho phosphoric acid. The method was run at 1 ml·min<sup>-1</sup> at 286 nm detection. The drug was eluted at 5.484 min. After developing the method, it was assured for the intended use by validation which was done according to ICH Q2B guidelines. The analytical parameters checked were linearity, accuracy, repeatability, intermediate precision, limit of detection, limit of quantitation, ruggedness and robustness. It was observed that the response of the detector was linear in the range of 6 - 14 μg/ml with correlation coefficient of 0.999. The results of all the parameters were found to be within the acceptance criteria. The stability indicating assay method was established by using the samples generated by forced degradation process. The forced degradation was carried out by subjecting the drug to acid, alkali, thermal, oxidative and photolytic degradation and the results showed that the degradation products were successfully separated from the drug. Hence, this can be applied perfectly later for the analysis of quality of the rucaparib drug.展开更多

After developing the method, it was assured for the intended use by validation, which was done according to ICH Q2B guidelines. The analytical parameters checked were Specificity/Selectivity, linearity, Range, accuracy, ruggedness, and robustness. It was observed that the response of the detector was linear in the range of 6 - 18 μg/ml with a correlation coefficient of 0.999. The results of all the parameters were found to be within the acceptance criteria. The stability-indicating assay method was established by using the samples generated by the forced degradation process. The forced degradation was carried out by subjecting the drug to acid, alkali, thermal, oxidative, and photolytic degradation, and the results showed that the degradation products were successfully separated from the drug. Hence, this can be applied perfectly later for the quantitative analysis of Bimatoprost 0.3% + Timolol 0.5% Ophthalmic Solution drugs for pharmaceutical use. Currently, there is no official method for Bimatoprost & Timolol combination products in USP or BP. Available research work related to single Bimatoprost or Timolol products was not suitable for testing Bimatoprost and Timolol combination drugs. Additionally, there is no stability-indicating method to test Bimatoprost & Timolol combination products which insist us to do research and develop a new reverse phase-HPLC indicating method which will be faster and more accurate.展开更多

Cellulose trisphenylcarbamates possess high enantioseparation ability in high-performance liquid chromatography(HPLC). Single-walled carbon nanotubes mixed with cellulose trisphenylcarbamate are coated on the silica gel as chiral stationary phases and higher enantioseparation factors are obtained. After a single-walled carbon nanotube is linked to the 6-pesition of cellulose 2,3-bisphenylcarbamate, its enantioseparation resolution increases compared to that of the cellulose trisphenylcarbamate. It is the first time that SWNTs have been applied to enantioseparation. The results indicate that the single-walled carbon nanotubes are good promoters of chiral recognition. This method can be used to improve the enantioseparation efficiency of the polysaccharide chiral stationary phases.展开更多

The determination of the analyte was carried out by high performance liquid chromatography with UV detection. The alkaline alumina was used as sorbent.

Several extraction parameters, such as type of sorbent, the ratio of sample to solid support material, type of the elution solvent and the volume of the elution solvent were tested. Mean recoveries ranged from 93.16% to 102.73%, with relative standard deviations from 0.27% to 4.17%. With the extraction efficiency and time expenditure taken into account, MSPD extraction should be a comparatively good method.展开更多
