this study a novel high performance liquid chromatography for the assay of nystatin in oral and vaginal tablets were optimized and validated using box–behnken experimental design. the method was performed in the isocratic mode on a rp-18 column (30 °c) using a mobile phase consisting of 0.05 m ammonium acetate buffer/ methanol mixture (30:70) and a flow-rate of 1.0 ml/min. the method was valida...

purpose : fluoroquinolones are widely used antibiotic for prophylaxis of intra and postoperative infections in individuals undergoing cataract surgery. this study was designed to assess the penetration of ciprofloxacin into the ocular aqueous humor (topical only versus topical and oral administration). methods : studied population (n=47) consisted of two groups: group one (n=26) and group two (...

A high performance liquid chromatography method was studied for determination of 18 ?-glycyrrhetinic acid in Glycyrrhiza glabra L. (licorice) extract. The operating condition were C-18 reversed phase column (VP-ODS, (250×4.6 mm, 5 mm)) at room temperature, acetonitril/phosphoric acid (3/1) as mobile phase, at flow rate of 0.6ml/min (0-8min), 0.4ml/min (8-20min) and UV detection at 230 nm. The...

A sensitive and simple HPLC/UV method has been developed and validated for the determination of two potential genotoxic impurities, namely methyl p-toluenesulfonate (MPTS) and ethyl p-toluenesulfonate (EPTS) at trace levels in Pemetrexed sodium API. Applying the concept of threshold of toxicological concern (TTC), a limit of 3 ppm each for both genotoxins was calculated based on the maximum dai...

Analytical methods to check the purity of active pharmaceuticals have been described in pharmacopeias. HPLC-UV detection is the most common analytical liquid chromatography technique for impurity profiling in QC laboratories because of its ease-of-use, robustness, and reliability. However, there are many occasions where ultraviolet (UV) detection has limitations, including cases where analytes ...

An HPLC-UV/MS method has been developed to identify and quantify flame retardants in post-consumer plastics from waste of electric and electronic equipment (WEEE). Atmospheric pressure chemical ionisation spectra of 15 brominated and phosphate-based flame retardants were recorded and interpreted. The method was applied to detect flame retardant additives in polymer extracts obtained from pressu...

background and objectives: furfural (f) and hydroxymethyl furfural (hmf) are cyclic aldehydes, which are formed during the heat processing of foods. these chemical contaminants have received much attention due to their suspected health hazards and heat damage indicators. the aim of the present study was extraction and determination of f and hmf in baby-foods using dispersive liquid-liquid micro...

For the first time, a novel and efficient ionic liquid-based ultrasound-assisted in-situ solvent formation microextraction (IL-UA-ISFME) combined with high-performance liquid chromatography-ultraviolet detection (HPLC-UV) has been successfully developed for the determination of duloxetine (DLX) in human plasma. Herein, an environmentally-friendly hydrophobic ionic liquid (1-butyl-3-methylimidaz...

Tolterodine tartrate, is a new, potent and competitive muscarinic receptor antagonist in clinical development for the treatment of urge incontinence and other symptoms of unstable bladder. The purpose of this study is to establish a reliable and quick method for the assignment of tolterodine tartrate by high performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection (HPLC-UV). A rapid  a...

Phenylalanine (Phe) is the most reliable indicator for the diagnosis of phenylketonuria (PKU). The purpose of this study is to establish a reliable and quick method for the assignment of Phe in peripheral capillary blood from newborns and children by high performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection (HPLC-UV). PKU is an inborn error of metabolism characterized by the inability o...
