ABSTRACT

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.

ABSTRACT

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.

ABSTRACT

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.

ABSTRACT

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.

ABSTRACT

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.

ABSTRACT

Prucalopride (PCP) is one of the recent drugs used for the regulation of gastrointestinal tract motility and the treatment of constipation. A new, highly sensitive and fast resonance Rayleigh scattering (RRS) approach was suggested for PCP determination. The approach was based on its reaction of PCP with eosin Y in buffered medium (pH 3.5) to form an ion pair association complex which had a significant enhancement in RRS compared to that of eosin Y or PCP alone. The enhancement of RRS intensity had straight correlation to PCP concentration ranging from 150 to 2000 ng mL-1 with 38 ng mL-1 as LOD and 125 ng mL-1 as LOQ. The measurements were done at a wavelength of 365 nm that provided the maximum sensitivity. All the experimental parameters were studied carefully and optimized via Box-Behnken experimental design. The International Council for Harmonization (ICH) guidelines were employed to validate the suggested method and the obtained results proved the appropriate method performance. The method was efficiently utilized to determine PCP in pure form, pharmaceutical tablets and spiked urine samples with no interferences from the surrounding matrices. Furthermore, the greenness of the suggested procedure was confirmed using different green metric approaches.

ABSTRACT

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.

ABSTRACT

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.

ABSTRACT

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.

ABSTRACT

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.

ABSTRACT

Bromocriptine mesylate, a dopamine D2 receptor agonist, has been quantitatively determined using a sensitive, precise, quick, and affordable spectrofluorimetric method. The proposed method relies on the estimation of bromocriptine native fluorescence after the optimization of different factors to improve its inherently weak fluorescence through the use of a sodium dodecyl sulphate micellar system (2% w/v). Following excitation at 238 nm, the enhanced fluorescence intensity of bromocriptine was determined at 418 nm. As compared to its native fluorescence, the bromocriptine fluorescence intensity has been greatly enhanced by about 15 fold by employing the micellar system. The plot of intensity of fluorescence versus bromocriptine concentration was linear in the range of 50-600 ng mL-1. The method was found to have a high sensitivity, as indicated by the low limit of detection and limit of quantitation values (14.57 and 44.16 ng mL-1 respectively). Without the interference of any excipient, this method was effectively employed to quantify bromocriptine in its pharmaceutical dosage form.

ABSTRACT

A fast, simple, accurate, precise, and cheap fluorimetric protocol has been proposed for analysis of a phosphodiesterase-IV inhibitor, namely drotaverine hydrochloride. Fluorimetric protocol is based on estimating the decrease in the eosin Y fluorescence intensity by quantitative addition of drotaverine at pH 3.1 (acetate buffer). An ion pair complex is formed, which leads to quenching in the fluorescence intensity of the dye without need of prior extraction at 534 nm (λex. 339 nm). Different reaction perimeters which influence the production of complex (ion pair between drotaverine and eosin) were deeply investigated and optimized. The developed fluorimetric protocol is capable for quantitative estimation of drotaverine in linear range of 0.4 to 2.5 µg mL-1. After method validation in respect to ICH guidelines, it was applied to determine drotaverine in its commercial preparation. By comparing with other reported method, the developed and validated fluorimetric protocol is capable for estimation of drotaverine in commercial preparation with good accuracy and excellent precision.

ABSTRACT

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 highly fluorescent product was extracted with methylene chloride, and then its emission was measured at 532 nm after excitation at 339 nm. The reaction was conducted in aqueous medium containing 0.1 M borate buffer (pH 8.2). The results showed that the proposed method is sensitive with high linearity in the range from 0.1 to 3 µg mL-1. 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.

ABSTRACT

The prokinetic drug, prucalopride (PCP) succinate, was determined using a new spectrofluorimetric approach with a highly sensitive, rapid, and simple procedure. The method exploited the enhancement of the inherent native fluorescence of PCP by micellar aggregation with sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) as an anionic surfactant. Different factors that could affect the fluorescence intensity were carefully studied in order to achieve the maximal fluorescence signal. Measurement of the enhanced fluorescence was done at 354 nm after the excitation at 276 nm. The fluorescence intensity-concentration plot was rectilinear in the concentration range of 50-600 ng/ml with detection and quantitation limits of 13.9 and 42.1 ng/ml, respectively. The method underwent validation according to the International Council for Harmonisation criteria in order to assess its analytical performance, and promising results were achieved that proved the validity and reliability of the method. Furthermore, the method was employed effectively for the analysis of the cited drug in commercial pharmaceutical tablets.

ABSTRACT

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.

ABSTRACT

A simple, rapid and selective thin layer chromatographic method has been developed for estimation of the antihypotension drug, midodrine hydrochloride, in pure form, tablet, spiked plasma and artificially degraded samples. Separation was carried out using silica gel 60-F254 as a stationary and mobile phase consisting of methanol: methylene chloride: ammonia in ratio of 8:2:0.2. The detection was carried out at wavelength of 290 nm. The retardation factor was found to be 0.7 and 0.49 for midodrine and its main degradation product desglymidodrine. The method showed linearity for midodrine over a concentration range of 50-1500 ng/spot with good correlation and determination coefficient. The method was applied successfully for analysis of commercial tablets and oral drops with good recovery and without interference of excipients. The method also was applied for studying the stability of the cited drug under different stress conditions including acidic, alkaline, hydrolytic, oxidative and photo- degradations. Furthermore, the kinetic of acidic and alkaline degradations was investigated and the rate constants were found to be 0.620 and 0.074 K h-1 while half life time (t1/2) values were 1.12 and 9.32 h, respectively.

ABSTRACT

The purpose of the present work was to establish a fast and convenient strategy for lomefloxacin analysis using a fluorimetric approach. The methodology was based on the complex formation of the drug with aluminum ion to give a product having high fluorescence. Adding sodium dodecyl sulfate led to further boosting the intensity of fluorescence which was recorded at 429 nm after excitation at 332 nm. The relationship of emission intensity with lomefloxacin concentration was linear at 10-130 ng mL-1 with a correlation coefficient of 0.9996. The quantitation limit was 11.4 ng mL-1 and detection limit was 3.8 ng mL-1. The reaction conditions were carefully studied which included the pH, buffer type, its concentration, the type and concentration of surfactant and the diluting solvent. The method was utilized to quantify the aforementioned drug in tablet formulations and in real human plasma with high accuracy and reliability.

ABSTRACT

It is common to use reagents to determine the drugs by exploiting the properties of these reagents in the development of fluorescence of the target drug or sometimes increasing its intensity; this is the usual and predominant in the methods used in various techniques. But using a drug as a reagent to analyze another drug is unique, unusual, and uncommon; that's the idea of this paper. This is possible by creating a chemical modulation in the drug's structure using another drug. Targeted analyte molecules (N-acetylcysteine, as an example) that lack fluorogenic or chromophoric moieties cannot be monitored or evaluated without undergoing structural modification. Thus, the chemical mending of the analyte's molecular structure can achieve the transformational process. This protocoled analytical method generates an amended fluorescence sensation that can be chased fluorimetrically at 441 nm (emission) following excitation at 339 nm. When o-dialdehyde, diformylbenzene, a non-fluorescent moiety, is added to a solution of non-fluorescent analyte in the presence of cardiosintol drug, at a specific pH, the target drug-thiol moiety can be amended into a highly fluorescent compound. This study presented a sensitive and feasible fluorometric test for acetylcysteine. The response is linear throughout the range of 0.05-0.80 µg mL-1. Quantum yield and procedure validation were evaluated according to I.C.H. standards. The formed mutated product was successfully applied to the precise assessment of the studied drug in batch powder and dose form(s), with no impact from excipients. Compared to the referenced publication, the outcomes demonstrate remarkable precision and accuracy.

ABSTRACT

Mitoxantrone (MXN) is a synthetic anthracenedione oncogenic therapy. It is often prescribed as an anticancer agent to manage a variety of cancers. A green, fast, and easy fluorimetric technique for the assay of MXN as a topoisomerase type II enzyme suppressor. An investigation of MXN's fluorescence behavior in various media and solvents constituted the basis for this new technique. Methanol was shown to enhance the intrinsic fluorescence considerably. After excitation at 610 nm, the highest fluorescence intensity was found at 675 nm. Various experimental parameters, such as media, solvents, and pH levels, were tested and adjusted. ICH (International Conference on Harmonization) guidelines were followed when validating procedures. It was possible to achieve linearity in the 0.02-1.50 µg ml-1 with the method. The sensitivity (in terms of limit of detection and limit of quantification) was 0.003 and 0.008 µg ml-1 , indicating low toxicity. As a result, the current technology has a remarkable recovery for detecting residues in diverse bodily fluids. Also, the quantum yield was estimated for the designed system. Finally, the method was rated by eco-scale scoring.
