ABSTRACT
A simple, rapid, precise and accurate isocratic reversed phase stability indicating HPLC method was developed and validated for the simultaneous determination of atenolol and lercanidipine hydrochloride in commercial tablets. The chromatographic separation was achieved on phenomenex Gemini C18 (250×4.6 mm, 5 µm) column using a mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile and buffer (20 mM potassium dihydrogen phosphate pH 3.5) in the ratio of (55:45, v/v) at a flow rate of 1.0 ml/min and UV detection at 235 nm. The linearity of the proposed method was investigated in the range of 40-160 µg/ml (r(2)=0.9995) for atenolol and 8-32 µg/ml (r(2)=0.9993) for lercanidipine. Degradation products produced as a result of stress studies did not interfere with the detection of atenolol and lercanidipine and the assay can thus be considered stability-indicating.
ABSTRACT
A simple, precise, and accurate isocratic reversed-phase (RP) stability-indicating HPLC assay method was developed and validated for determination of Aripiprazole in bulk and solid pharmaceutical dosage form. A reversed-phase C8 (250×4.0 mm, 5 µm particle size) column for HPLC and C8 (50×2.1mm, 1.7 µm particle size) for UPLC method in isocratic mode was used. The mobile phase consists of acetonitrile: 20 mM ammonium acetate (90:10, v/v), flow rate was set at 1.0 ml/min and 0.250 ml/min for HPLC and UPLC, respectively and the detection was performed for both methods were at 240 nm. Further the validation of both developed method was performed and subsequently compared to prove its better applicability.
ABSTRACT
A simple, precise and accurate HPLC method has been developed and validated for assay of lercanidipine hydrochloride in tablets and for determination of content uniformity. An isocratic separation was achieved using a Chromasil YMC Pack C(8), 150 × 4.6 mm i.d., 5µm particle size columns with a flow rate of 1 ml/min and using a UV detector to monitor the elute at 240 nm. The mobile phase consisted of 0.02 M ammonium dihydrogen phosphate buffer:methanol (35:65, v/v) with pH 3.5 adjusted with phosphoric acid. The method was validated for specificity, linearity, pre-cision, accuracy, robustness and solution stability. The specificity of the method was deter-mined by assessing interference from the placebo and by stress testing of the drug (forced degradation). The method was linear over the concentration range of 20-80 µg/ml (r(2)= 0.9992) with a limit of detection and quantitation of 0.1 and 0.3 µg/ml respectively. Intraday and interday system and method precision were determined and accuracy was between 99.3-101.9 %. The method was found to be robust and suitable for assay of lercanidipine hydrochloride in a tablet formulation and for determination of content uniformity. Degradation products resulting from the stress studies did not interfere with the detection of lercanidipine hydrochloride and the assay is thus stability-indicating.
ABSTRACT
A reliable and sensitive isocratic stability indicating RP-HPLC method has been developed and validated for assay of rosuvastatin calcium in tablets and for determination of content uniformity. An isocratic separation of rosuvastatin calcium was achieved on YMC C8, 150×4.6 mm i.d., 5 µm particle size columns with a flow rate of 1.5 ml/min and using a photodiode array detector to monitor the eluate at 242 nm. The mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile: water (40:60, v/v) pH 3.5 adjusted with phosphoric acid. The drug was subjected to oxidation, hydrolysis, photolysis and thermal degradation. All degradation products in an overall analytical run time of approximately 10 min with the parent compound rosuvastatin eluting at approximately 5.2 min. Response was a linear function of drug concentration in the range of 0.5-80 µg/ml (r(2)= 0.9993) with a limit of detection and quantification of 0.1 and 0.5 µg/ml respectively. Accuracy (recovery) was between 99.6 and 101.7%. Degradation products resulting from the stress studies did not interfere with the detection of rosuvastatin and the assay is thus stability-indicating.
