In the present paper, a reversed-phase liquid chromatographic method for the determination of related substances of rifampicin is developed and validated. Rifampicin and its related substances, including rifamycin SV, rifampicin N-oxide and 3-formylrifamycin SV were separated using a Zorbax Eclipse C8, 250×4.6 mm(i.d), 5 μm column by isocratic elution at a flow rate of 1 mL·min -1. The detector was set at 254 nm. The mobile phase is a mixture of methanol-acetonitrile -0.075 mol·L -1 monopotassium phosphate -1.0 mol·L -1 citric acid (31:31:35:3, v/v). The method validation included accuracy, precision, linearity, sensitivity and stability. All results are shown to be acceptable.展开更多

Complete separation of the RSs was achieved with an Inertsil ODS-SP column(250 mm×4.6 mm, 5 μm) by linear gradient elution using a mobile phase consisting of 0.2% formic acid solution, methanol and acetonitrile. EVT-401 was found to be susceptible to acid, alkaline and oxidative stresses, while relatively stable under photolytic and thermal dry stress conditions. Fourteen RSs including six process-related substances and eight degradation products were detected and identified in EVT-401 with positive ESI high-resolution TOF-MS analysis of their parent ions and the corresponding product mass spectra elucidation, and some of them were further verified by chemical synthesis and NMR spectroscopy. The specific LC–MS method developed for separation, identification and characterization of RSs is valuable for EVT-401 manufacturing process optimization and quality control.展开更多

Methods： The method was validated for specificity, linearity, accuracy, precision, robustness. A triple quadrupole mass detector was employed, equipped with an ESI （electrospray ionization） source operated in the negative ion mode. The chromatographic system consisted of a Symmetry C 18 column （150 mm × 4.6 mm, id; particle size 5 μm） and methanol-acetonitrile-ammonium acetate （pH 7.6; 10 mM） （40：40：20, v/v/v） as the mobile phase. The chromatographic conditions were 25 uL injection volume, flow rate of 0.4 mL/min and column temperature set at 35℃. Key tindings： The method requires a minimum sample amount and presents very low LOD （limits of detection） for CA （0.29 ng/mL）, DCA （0.59 ng/mL）, CDCA （0.13 ng/mL） and LCA （0.44 ng/mL） in comparison to LC methods coupled to different detectors like UV （ultraviolet）, fluorescence and refractive index. Conclusions： The developed and validated LC-MS/MS method for the determination of UDCA and related substances in raw material and in a suspension was advantageous since it required a minimum sample amount. In turn, it could be used as a stability indicating method.展开更多

The stability indicating capability of the method was proven by subjecting the samples to stress conditions such as acid, base, oxidation, photolysis and thermal degradation. The efficient chromatographic separation was achieved using mobile phase solution A prepared as buffer solution 10 mM monobasic potassium phosphate pH 4.0 ± 0.05 adjusted with diluted ortho phosphoric acid solution and solution B acetonitrile with linear gradient elution on poroshell 120 EC-C18 shot column (50 mm × 4.6 mm, 2.7 μm) and UV detection at 235 nm at a flow rate 1.0 mL/min, column oven temperature was set to 25?C. The above are all known impurities and degradation impurities are well resolved with Naproxen peak and these are eluted within a 10 min runtime of HPLC. The photo diode array detector was used for peak homogeneity testing during stress study experiments and the overall mass balance was found to be 99.2% to 100.2% in all stress conditions. The linear calibration range was found to be 0.05 μg/mL to 0.75 μg/mL for related compounds and 50 μg/mL to 150 μg/mL for Naproxen and the accuracy of the method was found to be 91.5% to 98.5% recovery for the related substance method and 95.4% to 97.4% recovery for the assay method. The Naproxen and related compounds were found to be stable up to 48 hours and the method validation data show excellent results for precision, linearity, specificity, limit of detection, limit of quantitation and robustness. The present method can be successfully used for routine QC and stability studies and it will help to reduce the analysis cost, time and effluent load compared to conventional HPLC methods.展开更多
