Development and validation of a liquid chromatography coupled to a diode array detector (LC-DAD) method for measuring mitotane (DDD) in plasma samples

Abstract Introduction: Mitotane (o,p'-DD) is the drug of choice for Adrenocortical Carcinomas (ACC) and its measurement in plasma is essential to control drug administration. Objective: To develop and validate a simple, reliable and straightforward method for mitotane determination in plasma samples. Method: Drug-free plasma samples were collected in potassium-ethylenediamine tetraacetate (K-EDTA) tubes and spiked with 1.0, 2.5, 10.0, 25.0 and 50.0 µg/mL of mitotane (DDD). The p,p'-DDD was used as an Internal Standard (IS) and was added at 25.0 µg/mL concentration to all samples, standards and controls. Samples were submitted to protein precipitation with acetonitrile and then centrifuged. 50 uL of the supernatant was injected into an HPLC system coupled to a Diode Array Detector (DAD). DDD and IS were detected at 230 nm in a 12 min isocratic mode with a solvent mixture of 60 % acetonitrile and 40 % formic acid in water with 0.1 % pump mixed, at 0.6 mL/min flow rate, in a reversed-phase (C18) chromatographic column kept at 28°C. The sensitivity, selectivity, precision, presence of carry-over, recovery and matrix-effect, linearity, and method accuracy were evaluated. Results: The present study's method resulted in a symmetrical peak shape and good baseline resolution for DDD (mitotane) and 4,4'-DDD (internal standard) with retention times of 6.0 min, 6.4 mim, respectively, with resolutions higher than 1.0. Endogenous plasma compounds did not interfere with the evaluated peaks when blank plasma and spiked plasma with standards were compared. Linearity was assessed over the range of 1.00 -50.00 µg/mL for mitotane (R2 > 0.9987 and a 97.80 %-105.50 % of extraction efficiency). Analytical sensitivity was 0.98 µg/mL. Functional sensitivity (LOQ) was 1.00 µg/L, intra-assay and inter-assay coefficient of variations were less than 9.98 %, and carry-over was not observed for this method. Recovery ranged from 98.00 % to 117.00 %, linearity ranged from 95.00 % to 119.00 %, and high accuracy of 89.40 % to 105.90 % with no matrix effects or interference was observed for mitotane measurements. Patients' sample results were compared with previous measurements by the GC-MS method with a high correlation (r = 0.88 and bias = −10.20 %). Conclusion: DDD determination in plasma samples by the developed and validated method is simple, robust, efficient, and sensitive for therapeutic drug monitoring and dose management to achieve a therapeutic index of mitotane in patients with adrenocortical cancer.

Incerteza de medição associada à contagem microbiana de produtos farmacêuticos / Measurement uncertainty associated with microbial count of pharmaceutical products

A contaminação microbiana pode comprometer a eficácia e a segurança dos produtos farmacêuticos. Os testes de contagem microbiana são utilizados para avaliar a qualidade microbiológica de produtos farmacêuticos não estéreis, exigidos pela maioria dos compêndios farmacopeicos. Apesar disso, raramente é considerada a avaliação da incerteza de medição para testes de contagem microbiana, o que pode levar a falsas decisões quanto à conformidade/nãoconformidade. Neste trabalho avaliamos os efeitos de matriz nos testes de contagem microbiana e sua avaliação de incerteza top-down, e avaliamos a incerteza da medição utilizando a abordagem bottom-up, além de que estimamos os riscos do consumidor ou do produtor devido à incerteza da medição. As incertezas combinada e expandida são calculadas empregando-se a abordagem topdown consideraram a exatidão (recuperação) e a precisão como os principais componentes de incerteza. O componente de incerteza da exatidão foi o mais relevante em 59% das amostras estudadas, enquanto a precisão foi a principal fonte de incerteza em apenas 41% das amostras, sendo observado que quanto maior a interferência da matriz, maior o fator de incerteza e, consequentemente, maior a assimetria para o intervalo em torno da medida. A partir da abordagem bottom-up, foram identificadas e quantificadas três principais fontes de incerteza: fator de diluição, volume plaqueado e contagem das placas. A contribuição dessas fontes de incerteza depende do valor medido da carga microbiana em produtos farmacêuticos, a contribuição do fator de diluição e das incertezas do volume plaqueado aumentam com o aumento do valor medido, enquanto a contribuição da contagem das placas diminui com o aumento do valor medido. Foi possível avaliar o risco de decisões falsas devido à incerteza de medição, por meio das estimativas dos riscos do consumidor ou do produtor. Os riscos foram avaliados utilizando-se o método Monte Carlo. Portanto, foi demonstrado a relevância da avaliação da incerteza de medição para garantir a confiabilidade dos resultados dos testes de contagem microbiana e a apoiar a tomada de decisões quando a avaliação da conformidade/não-conformidade dos produtos farmacêuticos não estéreis

Microbial contamination can compromise the efficacy and safety of pharmaceutical products. Microbial counting tests are used to assess the microbiological quality of non-sterile pharmaceutical products required by most pharmacopoeia compendiums. Despite this, measurement uncertainty assessment for microbial count tests is rarely considered, which can lead to false compliance/non-compliance decisions. In this work we evaluated the matrix effects on microbial counting tests and their top-down uncertainty assessment, and evaluated measurement uncertainty using the bottom-up approach, inaddition to estimating the consumer's or producer's risks due to measurement uncertainty. The combined and expanded uncertainties calculated using the top-down approach considered accuracy (recovery) and accuracy as the main components of uncertainty. The uncertainty component of accuracy was the most relevant in 59% of the samples studied, while accuracy was the main source of uncertainty in only 41% of the samples, being observed that the greater the interference of the matrix, the greater the uncertainty factor and, consequently, the greater the asymmetry for the interval around the measurement. From the bottom-up approach, three main sources of uncertainty were identified and quantified: dilution factor, platelet volume and plaque count. The contribution of these sources of uncertainty depends on the measured value of microbial load in pharmaceutical products, the contribution of the dilution factor and uncertainties of the plated volume increase with the increase in the measured value, while the contribution of plate counting decreases with the increase of the measured value. It was possible to assess the risk of false decisions due to measurement uncertainty by estimating consumer or producer risks. The risks were evaluated using the Monte Carlo method. Therefore, the relevance of measuring uncertainty assessment has been demonstrated to ensure the reliability of microbial count test results and to support decision-making when assessing non-sterile pharmaceutical conformity/non-compliance

Development of an analytical method for multi-residue quantification of 18 anthelmintics in various animal-based food products using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry / 药物分析学报

Each calibration curve was obtained using six levels of concentrations in the range 12.5-100µg/ml. The linear correlation coefficient (R2) for all calibration curves was higher than 0.9981 for all analytes. The limit of detection and limit of quantitation for Calycosin-7-O-β-D-glucoside were in 10.37 µg/ml and 31.45 µg/ml. Accuracy and precision were assessed by analyzing five sets of samples, independently prepared at low (50%) middle (100%) and high (150%) concentrations. The RSD values of both repeatability and intermediate precision were below 0.68% and 0.618% the accuracy remaining between 95.55 to 101.71%. The resulting accuracy data were satisfactory for the quantitative analysis of Calycosin-7-O-β-D-glucoside in “Astragalus mongholicus” injection.@*Conclusions@#Finally, this method can be employed conveniently, reliably and successfully for the estimation of Calycosin-7-O-β-D-glucoside for routine quality contral and stability studies in “Astragalus mongholicus” injection.

Establishment of kinetic detection method for PKA content / 中国输血杂志

【Objective】 To develop and verify a kinetic method for the determination of prekallikrein activator (PKA) content. 【Methods】 The optimal reaction conditions were determined by comparing the factors of pH and ionic strength of different sample dilution buffers, incubation time of each procedure, and incubation temperature. The accuracy, specificity, precision, linearity, stability and durability of the method were validated. 【Results】 The sample was diluted with 0.05 mol/L Tris-HCl buffer (pH8.5, containing 0.15 mol/L NaCl) and incubated by prekallikrein (PK) at 37℃ for 20 min. After that, the substrate S-2302 was added. Within 10 min before the measurement, the absorbance change rate reached △A405/min. The validation results indicated that the linear range of the method was (0.5~4.0)IU/mL, while the recovery of calibration standard was 96.9%~103.7% with the R2 value more than 0.99. The specificity test showed that human serum albumin, excipients of intravenous human immunoglobulin (pH4), low pH and protein content had no significant effect on the detection of PKA, The recovery rates of standard sample solution in the specificity experiment were 98.0% (0.9% sodium chloride solution), 95.3% (0.46% sodium caprylate solution), 96.7% (10% maltose solution, pH4.0), 94.0%(20%BSA), and 94.0%(5%BSA, pH4.0), respectively. The accuracy and precision of the method can meet requirements in the range between 0.5 and 4.0 IU/mL. The inter-batch recovery rate of quality control samples were between 96.4%~109.5% with the coefficients of variation(CV) between 0.2%~6.9%, while the intra-batch recovery rate were between 101.5%~102.9% with the CV between 2.6%~5.9%. The linearity, accuracy and precision of the assay can meet the requirements when PK and S-2302 were placed at room temperature for less than 6 hours, with the recovery rate of quality control samples between 94.9%~109.9%. The end-point method and kinetic method were used to determine the PKA in 20 batches of human serum albumin, and the consistency showed that there was no significant difference between the two methods(P>0.05). 【Conclusion】 A kinetic method for determination of PKA content with good linearity, specificity, accuracy, precision, stability and durability has been established. Compared with the method in ChP, the new method is more convenient, accurate and rapid to determine the content of PKA in human albumin and human immunoglobulin (pH4) for intravenous injection.
