RESUMEN
A novel antipsychotic medication named brexpiprazole (BRX) is currently employed for the treatment of schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders. Because BRX's molecular structure includes a benzothiophene ring, it natively fluoresces. To detect BRX with precision and speed, a flow injection-fluorometric method, which is both sensitive and selective, is recommended. The fluorescence detection was conducted at 364 nm following excitation at 326 nm to capture the strong intrinsic fluorescence of BRX. The carrier solution employed was a mixture of phosphate buffer (pH 4, 10 mM) and acetonitrile (50: 50, v/v), with a flow rate of 0.5 mL min- 1. The calibration curve, based on peak areas, exhibited linearity within the concentration range of 20-350 ng mL- 1, with a remarkable correlation coefficient (r2) of 0.9999. The limit of quantitation was 9.7 ng mL- 1, and the limit of detection was found to be 3.2 ng mL- 1. This method was applied to quantify BRX in Neopression® tablets, achieving recovery within an acceptable range without interference from the tablet's additives. Additionally, the proposed approach was successfully utilised to quantify the drug in spiked human plasma. The approach underwent validation following ICH requirements.
RESUMEN
A recently developed antipsychotic drug, lurasidone, was determined using a simple, sensitive, and eco-friendly spectrofluorimetric approach. The suggested approach was based on the quantifiable quenching impact of lurasidone on the inherent fluorescence of erythrosine B in an acidic environment employing a Teorell-Stenhagen buffer (pH 4). Following excitation at 530 nm, the quenching of erythrosine B fluorescence was monitored at 552 nm. The system variables were systematically optimized to enhance the formation of the lurasidone-erythrosine B ion pair for analytical purposes. A linear calibration graph was built in the range of 20-600 ng mL-1 with 0.9998 as a coefficient of correlation. The quantitation and detection limits were 13.5 and 4.5 ng/mL, respectively. The analytical validity of the designed approach was assessed with respect to International Council on Harmonization (ICH) guiding principles. The proposed methodology was employed with high recoveries for assessing lurasidone in bulk powder and its therapeutic tablet dosage form. Additionally, the uniformity of tablet formulations was tested using the developed approach. Finally, the established approach was assessed for its greenness using various tools.

A novel and highly sensitive high-performance thin-layer chromatographic (HPTLC) method was developed and validated to quantify a combination of five pharmaceutical mixtures spiked to human plasma. The compounds comprised Amlodipine (AML) along with five angiotensin II receptor antagonist drugs (AIIRAs), namely Olmesartan (OLM), Telmisartan (TLM), Candesartan (CAN), Losartan (LOS), and Irbesartan (IRB). HPTLC was performed on silica gel 60 F254 plates using a mobile phase of Toluene: ethyl acetate: methanol: acetone: acetic acid (6:1.5:1:0.5:1, v/v/v/v/v). In a pioneering move, a reflectance/fluorescence detection mode was employed to identify two concurrently administered drugs at different pH levels for the first time. This method utilized the same chromatographic system, incorporating a specific measurement for AML at a neutral medium to achieve its maximum fluorescence at a 360 nm excitation wavelength, and measuring emission using a 540 nm optical filter. The process involved obtaining a very low fluorescence response from AIIRA. Subsequently, to enhance AIIRA's fluorescence, the plate was sprayed with perchloric acid to transition to a strong acidic medium, ultimately attaining the maximum fluorescence of AIIRA using various excitation wavelengths and a 400 nm emission filter. Through this strategic process, we could optimize the fluorescence signals of both drugs, thereby elevating the sensitivity of detection for this drug combination. AML demonstrated a linear range of 18-300 ng/band, while AIIRAs drugs exhibited a linear range of 6-150 ng/band. The method satisfied the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) criteria for recovery, precision, repeatability, and robustness, showcasing exceptional sensitivity. The approach was successfully applied to quantify AML and AIIRAs drugs in both bulk drug and plasma samples, achieving high recovery percentages and minimal standard deviations.

People frequently administer Tizanidine (TIZ) to treat spasticity resulting from diseases like multiple sclerosis or spinal cord injuries. It also helps prevent muscle spasms. It helps to relax and release tense and stiff muscles by inhibiting specific nerve signals in the brain and spinal cord. The technique employed in this study made use of the unique ability of benzofurazan to confer fluorescent character when reacted with TIZ at specific conditions. This fluorogenic property was harnessed to evolve a remarkably sensitive, affordable, and selective method to quantify TIZ. The resulting yellow fluorescent product was observedat a wavelength beam of 532.9 nm, and an excitation wavelength beam of 474.9 nm was applied. By looking at the response across the TIZ concentration, the calibration chart's linearity was assessed in the range of 40-500 ng/mL. By computation, the approach's detection level (LOD) was determined to be 11.9 ng/mL, while the quantitation level was approximated to be 36 ng/mL. All pertinent factors impacting the strategy's efficacy were thoroughly inspected and adjusted accordingly. The proposed strategy was validated following the guidelines outlined by the ICH. The outcomes confirmed the method's capability for the accurate quantifying of TIZ in tablets, spiked plasma, and pharmaceutical assessing content uniformity.

The appearance of multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacterial infections, along with the lack of newly discovered antibiotics, resulted in the return to old antimicrobial medications like Polymyxins. As a result, the suggested technique aims to develop a fast, environmentally friendly, and sensitive fluorimetric method for quantifying Polymyxin B. The investigated approach depends on generating a highly fluorescent derivative by a condensation pathway between the studied drug and ninhydrin in the presence of phenylacetaldehyde and then estimated spectrofluorimetrically. After the reaction conditions were well optimized, the fluorescent product was estimated at emission wavelength (λem) = 475.5 nm (following excitation at a wavelength (λex) = 386 nm. The developed calibration plot displayed rectilinear throughout the following range (0.2-3 µg mL- 1), and the calculated limit of detection and quantification were 0.062 µg mL- 1 and 0.187 µg mL- 1, respectively. As a consequence, the drug's ophthalmic and intravenous pharmaceutical forms were both successfully quantified with an excellent degree of recovery. Finally, the methodology's greenness was assessed utilizing Analytical Eco-Scale scores.
RESUMEN
The simultaneous assay of duloxetine hydrochloride (DLX) and avanafil (AVN) in their pure forms, synthetic mixtures, and spiked human plasma was achieved using a novel, eco-friendly, sensitive, and specific HPTLC methodology that have been established and validated. Measuring the levels of co-administered antidepressants and sexual stimulants in biological fluids is an important step for individuals with depression and sexual problems. Separation was performed successfully using pre-coated silica gel 60-F254 as a stationary phase and a mobile phase composed of methanol, acetone, and 33% ammonia (8:2:0.05, v/v/v). Compact bands were produced by the optimized mobile phase that was chosen for development (Rf values were 0.23 and 0.75 for DLX and AVN, individually) after dual-wavelength detection for DLX and AVN at 232 and 253 nm, respectively. The results of polynomial regression analysis were exceptional (r = 0.9999 for both medicines) over concentration ranges of 5-800 and 10-800ng/spot for DLX and AVN, respectively. The quantitation limits were 4.69 and 9.53 ng/spot (0.31 and 0.94 µg/mL), whereas the detection limits were 1.55 and 3.15 ng/spot (0.63 and 1.91 µg/mL), for DLX and AVN, respectively. The International Council for Harmonization (ICH) criteria served as the basis for validating the established approach. Moreover, the proposed technique was evaluated in terms of greenness using four contemporary ecological metrics: The Analytical Greenness software (AGREE), the Green Analytical Procedure Index (GAPI), Eco-Scale, and the National Environmental Method Index (NEMI). Additionally, the Blue Applicability Grade Index (BAGI), a newly developed tool for evaluating the practicality (blueness) of procedures, was taken into consideration when evaluating the sustainability levels of the established approach.
RESUMEN
Vilazodone is a recently approved antidepressant medicine used for treating major depressive disorder. A simple, extremely sensitive, accurate and green spectrofluorimetric method was constructed for its determination through formation of ion-pair complex with erythrosine B. The formation of ion-pair complex lowers the dye's native fluorescence emission measured at 552 nm (λ ex = 530 nm). In terms of analysis, the system's parameters for producing the vilazodone-erythrosine B complex have been optimized. The reaction was carried out in Teorell-Stenhagen buffering solution (pH 4.6). The fluorescence emission intensity of the dye decreased linearly in the range of 20 - 600 ng mL-1 and the correlation coefficient was 0.9999. The quantitation and detection limit values were 18.5 and 6.1 ng mL-1, respectively. The proposed strategy has been validated according to the ICH criteria. The proposed technique was thoroughly employed for evaluating vilazodone in raw material and pharmaceutical tablet dosage form. Furthermore, it was also successfully used for content uniformity testing. Lastly, using four advanced tools namely the Eco-Scale, the National Environmental Method Index (NEMI), the Green Analytical Procedure Index (GAPI), and the Analytical Greenness metric approach (AGREE), the greenness of the established technique was evaluated.

Mirabegron (MRB) is a ß3-adrenoceptor agonist used for managing overactive bladder syndrome. A cost-effective, environmentally friendly, and highly sensitive spectrofluorimetric method was suggested to serve the purpose of quantifying MRB in its pure state, pharmaceutical tablets, spiked human plasma and urine, and testing content uniformity. In the present study, ninhydrin and phenylacetaldehyde react with the amino group moiety of MRB in Teorell-Stenhagen buffer (pH 7.5) to generate a strongly fluorescent diaryl pyrrolone compound that emits fluorescence at a wavelength of 477 nm upon excitation at 385 nm. The obtained calibration curve showed a linear relationship with a high correlation coefficient (r = 0.9997) in the concentration range of 0.25 to 5.0 µg mL-1. Limits of detection (LOD) and quantitation (LOQ) were 0.082 and 0.248 µg mL-1 respectively. The procedure was verified in accordance with the ICH guidelines. The suggested approach could be utilized for the selective analysis of MRB in its pharmaceuticals, either containing a single drug or co-formulated with solifenacin succinate. The greenness of the suggested method was confirmed using different green analytical metrics.

A green-complied spectrofluorimetric approach for quantification of the antidepressant, fluvoxamine, has been established. The method that has been suggested relies on the development of an association complex between fluvoxamine and erythrosine B in an acetate buffer solution. After being excited at 530 nm, the quenching in erythrosine B's native fluorescence caused by complex formation with fluvoxamine was detected at a wavelength of 552 nm. The values of fluorescence quenching at the most optimal reaction conditions were rectilinear at the concentration range of 0.2-2.0 µg mL-1, with a good correlation coefficient (r = 0.9998). The detection limit for the method was 0.03 µg mL-1 while the quantitation limit was 0.09 µg mL-1. The suggested approach has been validated according to the ICH. The established approach was effectively used to determine the drug under study in its dosage form with an average percent recovery of 98.92 ± 0.87 (n = 5), with no effect caused by the existing excipients. The proposed approach was also successfully used for the content uniformity test.
RESUMEN
Tolterodine tartrate (TTD) was the first antimuscarinic medication developed exclusively for the treatment of overactive bladder syndrome and was approved by the FDA in 1998. As a result of the drug's extensive utilization within the local community following its authorization, there is a pressing need to develop and validate a spectrofluorometric method that is economically efficient, easily reproducible, environmentally sustainable, and possesses high sensitivity. The developed approach relies on enhancing the fluorescence intensity of TTD to reach a level 720 % higher than its initial value, achieved through the application of an aqueous sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) solution. A strong correlation was observed with a correlation coefficient of 0.9998 between the concentration of TTD and the fluorescence intensity within the range of 25.0-500.0 ng mL-1. This approach could be employed to quantify TTD in its pure form and to examine pharmaceutical tablets for the purposes of verifying uniform content. Additionally, it was utilized for the evaluation of TTD concentrations in spiked human plasma.

Four sensitive and fast analytical approaches relied on ion pairing with eosin Y were built up and evaluated using spectroscopy for determination of Alcaftadine and Olopatadine hydrochloride with high sensitivity and selectivity. Two spectrofluorimetric techniques were employed to observe the quenching effect of Alcaftadine or Olopatadine hydrochloride on the intrinsic fluorescence of eosin Y in a 0.1 M acetate buffer solution at pH 3.8 and 3.3 for Alcaftadine and Olopatadine hydrochloride, respectively. Those methods are considered the first spectrofluorimetric methods for Alcaftadine and Olopatadine hydrochloride assay. The fluorescence quenching effect was linear with concentration ranging from 150 to 2000 and 200 to 2000 ng mL-1 for Alcaftadine and Olopatadine hydrochloride, respectively. In the two spectrophotometric techniques, the absorbance of the produced ion-pair was monitored at 548 and 547 nm in aqueous buffered solution at pH 3.8 and 3.3 for Alcaftadine and Olopatadine hydrochloride, respectively. Beer's law was obeyed in the concentrations range of 0.8-8.0 and 1.0-10.0 µg mL-1. The four techniques were evaluated in accordance with ICH requirements and were effectively used to analyze dosage forms with a high percent recovery.
RESUMEN
For the treatment of rhinitis and asthma, a combination of Montelukast sodium and Bilastine has just been approved. Based on the first derivative of synchronous fluorescence, the current work developed a green, highly accurate, sensitive, and selective spectroscopic approach for estimating Montelukast sodium and Bilastine in pharmaceutical dosage form without previous separation. The selected technique focuses on measuring the synchronized fluorescence of the studied medications at a fixed wavelength range (Δλ) = 110 nm, and using the amplitude of the first derivative's peak at 381 and 324 nm, for quantitative estimation of Montelukast sodium and Bilastine, respectively. The impacts of different factors on the referred drugs' synchronized fluorescence intensity were investigated and adjusted. The calibration plots for were found to be linear over concentration ranges of 50-2000 ng mL-1 for Montelukast sodium and 50-1000 ng mL-1 for Bilastine. Montelukast sodium and Bilastine have LODs of 16.5 and 10.9 ng mL-1, respectively. In addition, LOQs were: 49.9 and 33.0 ng mL-1, for both drugs, respectively. The developed method was successfully employed to quantify the two drugs in synthetic tablets mixture and in laboratory prepared mixtures containing varied Montelukast and Bilastine ratios. To compare the results with the published analytical approach, a variance ratio F-test and a student t-test were used, which revealed no significant differences.
RESUMEN
In this paper, vilazodone (VLD), a serotonin modulator prescribed for major depressive disorder, was investigated using a rapid, highly sensitive, and eco-friendly spectrofluorometric approach. The native fluorescence of VLD, originating from its indole moiety, exhibited an emission peak at 486 nm upon excitation at 241 nm. However, the presence of a piperazinyl nitrogen atom in the VLD structure, acting as an electron donor, significantly diminished the fluorescence intensity through photoinduced electron transfer (PET) to the indole ring. However, by protonating this nitrogen atom using 0.02 M Teorell-Stenhagen buffer (pH 3.5), inhibition of the PET process effectively blocked electron transfer, restoring the fluorescent properties of the drug. Further, an enhancement in the fluorescence was achieved by employing methanol as the solvent, resulting in a 1.5-fold increase. The combined use of PET blockage and methanol enabled the detection of VLD at levels as low as 0.78 ng mL-1. Calibration analysis demonstrated linearity within the range 5-400 ng mL-1, exhibiting a correlation coefficient of 0.9998 and a limit of quantification of 2.37 ng mL-1. The method obeyed the requirements of International Council on Harmonization (ICH). The proposed approach was applied for the accurate measurement of VLD in pharmaceutical tablets, content uniformity testing based on USP requirements, and determining VLD concentration in spiked human plasma. Moreover, the environmental impact, in addition to practical effectiveness, of the proposed approach was evaluated using different metrics.
RESUMEN
A new, straightforward spectrofluorimetric approach with high sensitivity was established for determining midodrine hydrochloride based on derivatizing this drug through its reaction with 5-(dimethylamino)naphthalene-1-sulfonyl chloride (dansyl chloride).

The lower limits of detection and quantitation were 29 and 88 ng mL-1, respectively. Furthermore, the proposed approach was analytically assessed by applying the ICH guidelines. The suggested approach was effectively utilized for the estimation of the medicine in its marketable tablet formulations with excellent recovery and without any interfering effect from excipients. Moreover, the presented approach was utilized to test the content uniformity of commercial tablets following the USP guidelines.
RESUMEN
Naftidrofuryl is a vasodilator medication used for treating cerebral and peripheral vascular diseases. In this study, two spectroscopical techniques, spectrofluorimetric and resonance Rayleigh scattering (RRS), were utilized to quantify naftidrofuryl in its pharmaceutical samples. The developed methodologies in this study rely on a facile process of forming an association complex between erythrosine B reagent and naftidrofuryl under acidic conditions. The fluorimetric assay is based on the ability of naftidrofuryl to quench and decrease the native fluorescence intensity of the reagent when measured at λ emis . = 550 nm ( λ excit . = 526 nm). Under similar reaction conditions, the RRS method relies on the observed amplification in the RRS spectrum of the reagent at a wavelength of 577 nm following its interaction with naftidrofuryl. The methods exhibited linearity within the ranges 0.2-1.6 µg/ml (r2 = 0.999) and 0.1-1.4 µg/ml (r2 = 0.9994), with limit of quantitation values of 0.146 and 0.099 µg/ml, and limit of detection values of 0.048 and 0.032 µg/ml, for the fluorometric and the RRS methods, respectively. Moreover, the quenching between the dye and naftidrofuryl was studied using Stern-Volmer analysis, and the methodologies were experimentally optimized and validated. Additionally, acceptable recoveries were achieved when the procedures were applied to determine naftidrofuryl in pharmaceutical samples.

Brexpiprazole (BRX) is a new antipsychotic drug that recently was used in the treatment of schizophrenia and other psychosis. The presence of benzothiophene ring in its chemical structure makes BRX naturally fluoresces. However, the native fluorescence of the drug was low in neutral or alkaline medium owing to the occurrence of photoinduced electron transfer (PET) from the nitrogen of the piperazine ring to the benzothiophene ring. Protonation of this nitrogen atom using sulfuric acid could efficiently block PET process and thus retaining the strong fluorescence of the compound. Accordingly, a straightforward, highly sensitive, fast and green spectrofluorimetric approach was established for BRX determination. In 1.0 M sulfuric acid solution, BRX exhibited significant native fluorescence measured at emission wavelength of 390 nm after excitation at 333 nm. ICH requirements were used to evaluate the method. The fluorescence intensity and BRX concentration were found to be correlated linearly within the range of 5-220 ng mL-1 with a coefficient of correlation 0.9999. The limit of quantitation was 2.38 ng mL-1 while limit of detection was 0.78 ng mL-1. The developed approach was successfully used to analyze BRX in biological fluids and pharmaceutical dosage form. The suggested approach worked well when applied for testing the uniformity of content.

A novel selective and highly sensitive TLC densitometric method with reflectance/fluorescence detection was developed to separate and quantify montlukast (MONT) and loratadine (LOR). Separation of the studied drugs was performed on precoated silica gel TLC plates using chloroform-ethyl acetate (8 :2 v/v) as a mobile phase. MONT quantification was carried out by measuring emission using 400 nm optical filter after excitation at 340 nm. Enhancement of the week LOR fluorescence was performed through adequate spraying the chromatograms with 0.2 M perchloric acid leading to enhancing sensitivity by 17 folds compared to the reported HPTLC methods with absorbance detection. The scanner was set at 275 nm excitation wavelength and 400 nm optical filter. Detection of both drugs on the same plate separately at different pH conditions was utilized for the first time. Maximum fluorescence was achieved for each of them and this enhances detection sensitivity for both drugs. The linear regression analysis data of the studied drugs produced a good linear relationship with correlation coefficients of 0.996 for MONT and 0.998 for LOR over the concentration range of 6 - 150 ng/band for MONT and 15 - 120 ng/band for LOR. Limit of detection values were 1.7 and 4.5 ng /band for MONT and LOR respectively. The developed method enabled the detection of MONT and LOR in human plasma samples within linear concentrations ranged from 7 to 140 ng/ band and 16 to 50 ng/ band with detection limits of 1.9 and 4.8 ng/band for MONT and LOR respectively. The analytical performance of the proposed method was evaluated according to the International Council for Harmonization (ICH). The method was successfully applied for the analysis of the studied drugs in spiked human plasma and good recovery percentages were obtained indicating that there is no interference from plasma constituents. Therefore the method can be applied for in vivo analysis and pharmacokinetic study.

RESUMEN
A high-performance thin-layer chromatographic (HPTLC) method has developed for the selective detection of a diuretic drug, triamterene (TRIAM), in pure form, tablets and human plasma. The method was based on chromatographic separation of TRIAM using HPTLC plates, precoated with silica gel, and a mobile phase consisted of ethyl acetate: dimethylformamide: ammonia (7.0: 2.7: 0.3, by volume). The native fluorescence signal of TRIAM was detected at 440 nm and used to quantify TRIAM using the proposed method, improving the method sensitivity to ~250-folds in comparison to that reported in previous HPTLC studies. The developed method enabled the detection of TRIAM in pure drug and biological samples (human plasma) within linear concentrations ranged from 0.8 to 60 ng/band or 1.0 to 60 ng/band for pure drug and plasma samples, respectively. Furthermore, the method was validated according to the official guidelines to permit its applicability in quality control and clinical laboratories.
