Utility of green chemistry for feasible spectrofluorometric determination of trifluridine via metal complexation: Application to dosage forms.

The goal of the current research was to establish a quick and practical fluorometric technique for trifluridine analysis. The approach relied on the drug's complex formation with the zinc ion to produce a high-fluorescence product. The fluorescence was further enhanced by adding sodium dodecyl sulfate, and it was observed at 450 nm following excitation at 400 nm. With a determination coefficient of 0.9994, the association between emission intensity and trifluridine concentration was linear between 1 and 125 ng mL-1. The quantitation limit was 0.987 ng mL-1 while 0.333 ng mL-1 was the detection limit. The buffer type, pH and concentration, type of surfactant and concentration, and finally the diluting solvent were among the reaction conditions that were closely examined. With great precision and reliability, the drug in question was quantified using this method in dosage formulations. The proposed method's level of greenness was assessed using two methodologies: the analytical greenness metric (AGREE) and the Green Analytical Procedure Index (GAPI).

Synchronous fluorescence as a green and selective method for the simultaneous determination of finasteride and tadalafil in dosage form and spiked human plasma.

Finasteride and tadalafil are combined in a pharmaceutical capsules called Entadfi™, that has received FAD approval. It was indicated for the management of male benign prostatic hyperplasia-related urinary tract issues. In the current study, finasteride and tadalafil concentrations in raw form, laboratory prepared mixtures, pharmaceutical preparation and spiked human plasma were all quantitatively estimated using a sensitive synchronized fluorescence spectroscopic approach united with first derivative. When excited at 260 nm, finasteride display its emission at 320 nm. Yet, when excited at 280 nm, tadalafil displayed its emission at 340 nm. The application of micellar surfactant as sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) significantly increased the fluorescence intensity.The overlapping of the fluorescence spectra was entirely eliminated by derivatizing the synchronous spectra to the first derivative, which also made it possible to simultaneously quantify the cited drugs. Without interfering with one another, the first-order synchronous spectra of tadalafil and finasteride at 320 and 330 nm, respectively. The approach revealed linearity alongside an acceptable correlation coefficient for finasteride and tadalafil concentrations over the range of 10 -50 ng/mL. That approach was utilized to estimation of the cited drugs in dosage forms, simultaneously with %recoveries for tadalafil and finasteride of 99.62 ± 0.78 and 100.19 ± 0.60, respectively. Also, four various tools, the national environmental method index, the AGREE evaluation method, the green analytical procedure index and the analytical eco-scale were used to evaluate how environmentally friendly the given approach was. With regard to the metrics of the greenness aspects, the proposed approach appeared to be better than the previously published spectrophotometric methods and HPLC.

Green micellar spectrofluorimetric determination of α-mangostin found in herbal products as antioxidant and other biological activities beneficial to human health.

Pharmaceutical product quality control (QC) needs quick, sensitive and economical procedures to deliver high throughput at low cost, which is the key factor considered by such economic facilities. To lessen the risky effects of research laboratories, researchers must take into account the ecological impacts. α-Mangostin (MAG) exhibit anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anticancer, anti-allergic, antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral and antimalarial activities. Based on the spectrofluorimetric approach, a novel straightforward, sensitive and environmentally friendly method for MAG determination was developed and validated. Many variables were investigated to improve MAG native fluorescence, including solvent type, buffers, pH and additional surfactants. The best MAG fluorescence sensitivity was found in Britton-Robinson buffer (pH 4) at 450 nm after irradiation at 350 nm in the concentration range of 5-50 ng ml-1 . The technique was successfully used to determine the presence of MAG in both its approved dose forms and in samples of spiked human plasma, as per FDA standards for validation. According to their evaluation on two recent greenness criteria (GAPI [Green Analytical Procedure Index] and AGREE [Analytical GREEnness]), the suggested approach has been shown to be environmentally beneficial because it normally uses biodegradable chemicals in solvent-free aqueous phases.
