Facile and green chemistry-compatible fluorescence spectroscopic applications of acid red 87 used to evaluate eletriptan, antimigraine, in its pharmaceutical and biological samples.

ABSTRACT

Eletriptan (ETR), a selective pharmaceutical agent agonist of the 5-hydroxytryptamine1 receptor subtype, are primarily used to treat acute migraine attacks. ETR is a triptan-class medication that works by narrowing cerebral blood vessels and reducing chemicals that produce headache pain, light and sound sensitivity, and nausea. Due to its effectiveness in reducing migraine symptoms, it is a worthwhile choice for those looking for quick and efficient treatment. A green, raid, one-pot and straightforward fluorescence spectrometric method was employed to evaluate ETR in tablets and biological samples. By introducing the ETR drug and the fluorescent ligand, Acid red 87, in an acidic buffer, a quenching of the ligand native fluorescent was promptly produced. The quenching action was simply attributed to the selective ion-pair complex generation between the cationic target and the selected ligand. An increase in ETR concentration was linearly proportional to the quenching response in the 50.0 - 500.0 ng/mL range. The optimal configurations for adjusting the system's variable parameters were determined by examining the ETR-Acid red 87 system's response. Additionally, the sensor that was developed met the standards set by the International Council for Harmonisation of Technical Requirements of Pharmaceuticals for Human Use. The sensitivity thresholds of the approach were 13.8 and 42.0 ng/mL for the detection and quantification parameters, respectively, LOD and LOQ. This approach proficiently evaluated the pharmaceutical and biological samples of ETR. Finally, the proposed approach not only simplifies the analysis process but also limits the badimpact on the environment, making it a promising technique for analytical applications.
