Novel approaches of erythrosine B as a food dye-derived spectroscopic probe for assessing trospium chloride in raw material and dosage form

Utilizing erythrosine B absorption spectrum shifts for quantitative determination of octreotide and bromocriptine in their pure forms and pharmaceutical formulations. Evaluation of the method greenness

In the present study, two drugs for treating acromegaly are investigated which are either synthetic growth hormone inhibiting hormone (GHIH) or dopamine receptor agonist. Octreotide (OCT) and bromocriptine (BCT) were quantified with a quick, simple, and sensitive spectrophotometric approach in their authentic forms and commercial dosage forms. This approach was based upon formation of ion pair complex between erythrosine B and investigated drugs in an aqueous buffered solution. For OCT determination the higher sensitivity was obtained using ΔA at 525 nm. On the other hand, BCT was estimated using the absorbance at 556 nm. Under optimal conditions for the reaction, construction of calibration curves were performed within concentration range of 0.4-4 µg ml-1 for OCT and 1-9 µg ml-1 for BCT with with low detection limits (0.094 and 0.235 µg ml-1) and low quantitation limits (0.29 and 0.71 µg ml-1) for OCT and BCT respectively. The developed approach was assessed for linearity, accuracy, precision, limits of detection, and limits of quantitation in compliance with ICH validation recommendations. The suggested approaches demonstrated good linearity, as evidenced by determination coefficients (r2) of 0.999 with a slope 0.14 for OCT and 0.9989 with a slope 0.06 for BCT. Additionally, the environmental friendliness of the investigated method was assessed with some of the recent green analytical chemistry metrics.

Green spectrophotometric and spectrofluorimetric determination of biperiden hydrochloride using erythrosine B sensing probe

Erythrosine B (EB) is a food colorant antiviral xanthene dye that has many applications as a color additive in pharmaceuticals and cosmetics. Its use as a sensor for spectrofluorimetric and spectrophotometric analysis of amine-based pharmaceuticals renders many advantages because of its availability, low cost, rapid labeling, and high sensitivity. Herein, two fast and sensitive spectrofluorimetric and spectrophotometric methods were established for the estimation of the anti-Parkinson drug, biperiden (BIP) hydrochloride (HCl), in its raw material and tablet forms. The proposed methods depended on the interaction between the phenolic group of EB and the tertiary amino group of the studied analyte to form an ion-pair complex at pH 4 using the Britton Robinson buffer. The spectrofluorimetric method is based on the measurement of the quenching power of BIP HCl on the fluorescence intensity of EB at λex/em = 527.0/550.9 nm. This method was rectilinear over the concentration range of 0.1-1.0 μg/mL with a limit of detection (LOD) = 0.017 μg/mL and a limit of quantification (LOQ) = 0.05 μg/mL. Meanwhile, the colorimetric method involved monitoring the absorbance of the formed ion-pair complex at 555 nm, showing a linearity range of 0.4-5.0 μg/mL with LOD = 0.106 μg/mL and LOQ = 0.322 μg/mL. The proposed methods were assessed for the greenness, indicating the greenness of the developed methods.

Validated spectrofluorimetric and resonance Rayleigh scattering methods for determining naftidrofuryl in varied pharmaceutical samples based on its interaction with erythrosin B

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.
