Simultaneous determination of acetylsalicylic acid and caffeine in pharmaceuticals by flow injection with fourier transform infrared detection.
1993
Abstract A fast quality control methodology has been developed for the simultaneous determination of acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) and caffeine in pharmaceuticals by flow injection—Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometry. The method is based on the solubilization of ASA and caffeine in CH2Cl2 and the use of a flow system to introduce samples and standards in the spectrometer. Two solutions, containing 90 and 110% of the reported concentration of the two active principles in the sample, were employed in order to control the extreme tolerance levels accepted by the International Pharmacopeia for the composition of formulations. A 300 μl volume of each solution was injected in turn, into a carrie…
Quantitative Retention−Structure and Retention−Activity Relationship Studies of Local Anesthetics by Micellar Liquid Chromatography
2011
The retention of compounds in micellar liquid chromatography (MLC) is governed by hydrophobic and electrostatic forces. For ionic compounds, both interactions should be considered. The present report offers a novel retention model that includes the hydrophobicity of compounds and the molar fraction of the charged form of compounds and compares it with other previously reported models. High correlations between the logarithm of capacity factors and these structural parameters were obtained for local anesthetics with different degrees of ionization using a nonionic surfactant solution as mobile phase. Modeling the retention of compounds as a function of physicochemical parameters and experime…
Analysis of pharmaceutical preparations containing local anesthetics by micellar liquid chromatography and spectrophotometric detection
1999
An HPLC procedure for the determination of six local anesthetics, bupivacaine, lidocaine, mepivacaine, procaine, propanocaine and tetracaine, in pharmaceutical silane ODS-2 C18 analytical column and spectrophotometric detection at 230 nm were used. The chromatographic tographic behaviour of local anesthetics with different micellar eluents of sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) is described. Selection of the adequate composition of the micellar mobile phase (SDS and 1-propanol concentrations) for the analysis of pharmaceuticals was studied. Adequate retention was achieved with an eluent containing 0.15 M SDS +10% 1-propanol at pH 3. Application of the proposed method to the analysis of eight phar…
High-performance liquid chromatographic determination of furfural compounds in infant formulas
2002
Furfural contents in adapted and follow-up infant formulas were measured by RP-HPLC. The evolution of furfural compound contents during storage (a year at 20 and 37 °C) was studied. 2-Furylmethylketone and 5-methyl-2-furaldehyde were not detectable in analysed samples. The differences in the furfural compounds at point zero between both infant formulas has to be ascribed to the differences in protein and iron contents. An increase in free 5-hydroxymethyl-2-furfuraldehyde (HMF), 2-furaldehyde (F) and HMF+F contents was observed in all samples, although the differences were not statistically significant. The storage temperature affected the total HMF content and the storage time affected the …
Chromatographic determination of caffeine in pharmaceutical formulations using micellar mobile phases
1996
An HPLC procedure is described for the determination of caffeine in pharmaceutical preparations. A Spherisorb octadecylsilane ODS-2 C18 analytical column and spectrophotometric detection at 273 nm were used. The chromatographic behaviour of caffeine with different micellar eluents containing sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) is described. The determination of caffeine in pharmaceutical preparations was performed by use of a mobile phase containing 0.05 M sodium dodecylsulphate (SDS) and 1.5% propanol at pH7. At a 6.0 μg mL−1 concentration level the peak area and peak height repeatability were 2.6 and 2.4%, respectively. The application of the proposed method to the analysis of five pharmaceutic…
Determination of α-Tocopherol in Plasma by High Performance Liquid Chromatography with Fluorescence Detection and Stability of α-Tocopherol under Dif…
2011
In order to study the clinical effects of the antioxidant alpha-tocopherol (tocofersolan, CAS 30999-06-5) a simple, robust, sensitive and reliable high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method using fluorescence detection for the daily measurement of alpha-tocopherol concentration in plasma is described. Several methods of HPLC analysis using fluorescence techniques are published, however, investigations of the stability of alpha-tocopherol during sample preparation under different conditions are relevant in the routine measurements and have to date not been reported. Therefore a modified method, both sensitive and robust, qualified for the day-by-day measurement of alpha-tocopherol …
Extractive Spectrophotometric Determination of Ondansetron by Ion-Pair Formation with Bromocresol Green
1996
Abstract An empirical spectrophotometric procedure for the determination of the antiemetic ondansetron is carried out. The method is based on the formation of a 1:1 ion pair with bromocresol green in the pH range over 3.2 – 4.4, extraction into chloroform layer and spectrophotometric measurement at 420.8 nm. The calibration graph is linear over the range 0.1 – 20 μg ml−1 ondansetron, with a relative standard deviation of 2.7%; the influence of foreign substances is also studied. The method is applied to ondansetron determination in human urine.
Improved sample preparation for the testosterone hydroxylation assay using disposable extraction columns
1992
The preparation of samples for injection into a high-performance liquid chromatograph from assay mixtures for the determination of cytochrome P-450-dependent testosterone hydroxylation has been substantially facilitated. By replacing the multiple cumbersome extraction steps of the conventional method with a single column extraction the time for sample preparation was reduced from hours to minutes. The new procedure also yields better recoveries for most of the testosterone metabolites than the original protocol. The use of extraction columns for sample preparation allows the simultaneous treatment of a large number of samples or even the automation of the whole assay procedure. The modified…
Determination of Lobenzarit Disodium in Human Plasma by High-Performance Liquid Chromatography
1998
Abstract A reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatographic procedure was developed for determination of lobenzarit disodium in human plasma over the range 0.5−17.5 μg/mL with diphenylamine as internal standard. Plasma samples were extracted with acetonitrile and an aliquot was injected onto a Lichrospher 100 RP-18 column with ultraviolet absorbance detection at 308 nm. Composition of the mobile phase was acetonitrile-water-glacial acetic acid (50:50:0.2 v/v/v).
Determination of organic and inorganic anions in insect haemolymph and midgut contents by ion chromatography
1997
A simple and rapid ion-exchange chromatographic method with conductimetric detection for the determination of carboxylic acids (succinic, malic and citric) and inorganic anions (chloride, phosphate and sulphate) in haemolymph and midgut content of Lepidoptera larvae is provided. The mobile phase is 0.975 mM phthalic acid at pH 4.1. The procedure of sample extractions was simple. Comparison of the results with whose reported in the bibliography showed that the values were similar. The ion-exchange chromatographic–conductimetric detection method permits the analysis of various organic and inorganic anions in small biological samples.
