Validated HPLC-MS/MS method for simultaneous determination of simvastatin and simvastatin hydroxy acid in human plasma.

Cholesterol lowering statin drugs are the most frequently prescribed agents for reducing morbidity and mortality related to coronary heart disease. This publication presents a validated, highly sensitive and selective isocratic HPLC method for the quantitative determination of the major statin drug simvastatin (SIM) and its metabolite simvastatin hydroxy acid (SIMA). Detection was performed on an electrospray ionization triple quadrupole mass spectrometer equipped with an ESI interface operated in positive and negative ionization mode. The multiple reaction-monitoring mode (MRM) was used to provide MS/MS detection. The linearity for the calibration curve in the concentration range of 0.10-16.00 ng/mL for SIM and 0.10-16.00 ng/mL for SIMA is presented. Inter- and intra-day precision and accuracy of the proposed method were characterized by relative standard deviation (R.S.D.) and percentage deviation, respectively; with both lower than 7% for all analytes. The limit of quantitation was 0.03 ng/mL for SIM and 0.02 ng/mL for SIMA. The devised method was employed in the pharmacokinetic study of SIM and the pharmacokinetic parameters of all analytes are also presented.

Validated HPLC-MS-MS method for determination of azithromycin in human plasma.

A validated, highly sensitive, and selective HPLC method with MS-MS detection has been developed for quantitative determination of azithromycin (AZI) in human Na2EDTA plasma. Roxithromycin (ROX) was used as internal standard. Human plasma containing AZI and internal standard was ultrafiltered through Centrifree Micropartition devices and the concentration of AZI was determined by isocratic HPLC-MS-MS. Multiple reaction monitoring mode (MRM) was used for MS-MS detection. The calibration plot was linear in the concentration range 2.55-551.43 ng mL(-1). Inter-day and Intra-day precision and accuracy of the proposed method were characterized by R.S.D and percentage deviation, respectively; both were less than 8%. Limit of quantification was 2.55 ng mL(-1). The proposed method was used to determine the pharmacokinetic profile of AZI (250-mg tablets).

Sensitive fluorimetric method based on sequential injection analysis technique used for dissolution studies and quality control of prazosin hydrochloride in tablets.

This report introduces a fully automated flow system for drug-dissolution studies based on the coupling of the sequential injection analysis (SIA) technique with a conventional dissolution apparatus. The methodology described was used for monitoring of dissolution profiles of prazosin hydrochloride (PRH) in pharmaceutical formulation. The very sensitive fluorimetric detection of PRH was performed at lambda(ex)=244 nm (lambda(em)>or=389 nm). Under the optimal conditions, the calibration curve was linear over the range 0.02-2.43 mg x l(-1) of PRH with R.S.D. 1.89, 1.23, and 1.80% (n=10) when determining 0.02, 1.22, and 2.43 mg x l(-1) of PRH in standard solutions, respectively. Equation of the calibration curve was calculated giving the following values: F=4.108 c-3.9 (n=6), r=0.9996. Detection limit was calculated 0.007 mg x l(-1) of PRH. The dissolution test of Deprazolin tablets was programmed for 60 min, with a continuous sampling rate of 70 h(-1) under conditions required by USP 26. Results obtained by SIA technique compared well with HPLC standard method.
