Abstract
In this study, we have co-loadedatorvastatin (ATR) and quercetin (QCT) in a nonionic microemulsion. After developing a derivative ratio spectrophotometric technique for simultaneous analysis of ATR and QCT, pseudoternary phase diagram was constructed utilizing1:4 d-α-tocopherol polyethylene glycol 1000 succinate (TPGS) and ethanol as surfactant and cosurfactant, respectively. Oleic acid was used as oil phase. Structural characterization of the formulation was carried out along a water dilution line created in monophasic region. Characterizations at these dilution points were performed using dynamic light scattering and polarized light microscopy. The average hydrodynamic size of the optimized formulation was found to be 18.9 nm and it did not change upon loading of ATR and QCT. In vitro release was assessed for the formulations loaded with different ratios of ATR and QCT, and the data were fitted to different mathematical models. Interestingly, we noticed differences in release kinetics during changes in dose ratios, particularly for QCT. Higuchi kinetics, observed at equal dose, shifted to Korsmeyer-Peppas model at higher QCT-ATR ratio (2:1 and 4:1). This difference is attributable to the ability of QCT molecules of overwhelming the interface at higher concentrations. Altogether, our observations highlight that the ratio of payloads should be selected carefully in order to avoid unpredictable release patterns.

[PMID: 37880475 PMCID: PMC10600230 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-45334-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/20/2023] [Accepted: 10/18/2023] [Indexed: 10/27/2023] Open
Abstract
Four simple, sensitive, economical, and eco-friendly spectrophotometric and spectrofluorimetric methods for the assay of erdosteine (ERD) in bulk and dosage form have been developed and validated as per the current ICH guidelines. Method I involved the addition of the powerful oxidizing agent, potassium permanganate to ERD and measuring the oxidation product at 600 nm. Another oxidizing agent; ceric ammonium sulfate was used in Method II where ERD is oxidized resulting in a decline in the absorbance intensity of cerium (IV) ions, measured at 320 nm. Similarly, Method III employed the use of ceric ammonium sulfate, However, the fluorescence intensity of the resulting cerium (III) ions was recorded at λex/λem 255/355 nm, respectively. Whereas in Method IV, ERD was added to acriflavine leading to a proportional decrease in its native fluorescence. Various reaction conditions affecting the intensity of measurement were attentively investigated, optimized, and validated. All the suggested methods did not require any tedious extraction procedures nor organic solvents. The implementation of the proposed methods in ERD assay resulted in linear relationships between the measured signals and the corresponding concentrations of ERD in the range of 1-6, 0.1-1.0, 0.01-0.1, and 10-100 μg/mL with LOD values 0.179, 0.024, 0.0027 and, 3.2 μg/mL for methods I, II, III and IV respectively. The suggested methods were successfully applied to ERD analysis in pure form and in commercial capsules. Furthermore, the eco-friendliness of the proposed methods was thoroughly checked using various greenness testing tools. Lastly, this work, not only presents highly sensitive, green, mix-and-read methods for ERD determination, but also, describes the determination of ERD spectrofluorimetrically for the first time in the literature.

Abstract
A precise, Eco-friendly, and highly sensitive RP-HPLC method was employed using quality-by-design principles to concurrently identify cephalexin and cefixime residues in the manufacturing machines using a hypersil BDS C18 column (250 × 4.6 mm, 5 μm) at wavelength 254 nm. The Box-Behnken design was applied to obtain the best chromatographic conditions with the fewest possible trials. Three independent factors viz organic composition, flow rate, and pH were used to assess their effects on the responses' resolution and retention time. Overlay plot and desirability functions were implemented to predict responses of the high resolution and relatively short retention time using a mobile phase composed of acidic water: acetonitrile (85:15, v/v) at pH 4.5 adjusted by phosphoric acid with a flow rate of 2.0 mL/min. The spectral overlapping of the drugs was successfully resolved by the mean centering ratio (MCR) spectra approach at 261 nm and 298 nm for cephalexin and cefixime, respectively. Good linearity results were obtained for the suggested HPLC and MCR methods over the concentration range of (0.05-10 ppm) and (5-30 ppm) with a detection limit of 0.003, 0.004, 0.26, and 0.23 ppm, and quantitation limits of 0.008, 0.013, 0.79, and 0.68 ppm for cephalexin and cefixime, respectively, with a correlation coefficient of ≥ 0.9998 and good swab recovery results of 99-99.5%. A process capability index was accomplished for chemical and micro results, illustrating that both are extremely capable. The suggested method was effectively validated using ICH recommendations.

PART A, MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2022; 273:121066. [PMID: 35231759 DOI: 10.1016/j.saa.2022.121066] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/12/2021] [Revised: 02/12/2022] [Accepted: 02/20/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
Four simple, precise, accurate and validated spectrophotometric methods have been developed for the simultaneous determination of ofloxacin (OFL) and bromfenac sodium (BROM). Firstly, first and second derivative spectrophotometric methods (1D &2D) using a zero-crossing technique utilizing 309.3 and 257.5 nm for OFL and 290.7 and 246.5 nm for BROM as optimum working wavelengths in a binary mixture, respectively. Secondly, the first derivative ratio spectrophotometric method (1DD) in which peak amplitudes at 297.3 nm and 260.7 nm were chosen to simultaneously estimate OFL and BROM, respectively. Thirdly, dual wavelength (DW) method based on two selected wavelengths for each drug in such a way that the difference in absorbance is zero for the second one. At wavelengths 296.4, 348.4 nm BROM has equal absorbance values, therefore, these two wavelengths have been used to determine OFL. Similarly, 271.7 nm and 313.1 nm were selected to determine BROM in the combined formulation. Finally, the fourth method depends on ratio difference spectrophotometry (RDSM), in which the difference between amplitudes at 305.6 nm and 326.5 nm on the ratio spectrum of the mixture was directly proportional to the concentration of OFL; independent of the interfering components. Similarly, the difference between amplitudes at 265.1 nm and 275.4 nm on the ratio spectrum was used for the determination of BROM. The linearity was confirmed in the range of 4 - 18 µg/ml for OFL and BROM for the four methods. The proposed methods were used to determine both drugs in their laboratory prepared mixture and combined formulation with mean percentage recoveries of 99.41 ± 1.35% for OFL and 99.98 ± 1.30 % for BROM in method (A). In method (B), the mean percentage recoveries were 101.70 ± 1.61% for OFL and 101.90 ± 1.45% for BROM. In method (C) OFL was 99.57 ± 1.61% and 100.90 ± 1.62% for BROM. Finally, in method (D) the mean percentage recoveries were 99.37 ± 1.67% for OFL and 100.70 ± 1.59% for BROM. The developed methods were successfully employed for determination of OFL and BROM in laboratory prepared mixtures and combined formulation showing satisfactory recoveries. Methods validation was performed according to the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) guidelines. The obtained results conformed to the accepted ranges of recovery, precision and repeatability.

Abstract
Spectrophotometry is a quick and reliable method for determining the composition of a variety of complex drug mixtures. Several mathematical models are available for the resolution of complex multicomponent UV spectra. UV spectrophotometric methods have the inherent capacity to resolve the interlaced spectra of complex mixtures quickly and appropriately, particularly for quantitative determination of components of mixture where several costly tools are not available. These methods also have the benefit of lower operational costs as they are operated using lesser amounts of analytical grade solvents and generate less waste. In this review, we discussed the theoretical background of different UV spectrometric methods for quantitative analysis of drug mixtures. The main focus of this review is to describe and report applications of extended Beer's law-based multicomponent analysis and to highlight the recent developments in the simultaneous determination of drug components from their complex mixtures.

Abstract
The development of analytical chemistry is omnipresent in all fields, this leads to considerable consumption of organic solvents and hazardous reagents with an increase in the production of waste to be treated. In this work, we developed simple, fast, cost-effective and above all environmentally friendly methods for the analysis of Acetaminophen (ACT) and Ascorbic acid (ASC) in synthetic mixtures and pharmaceutical formulation, using UV spectroscopy. Four chemometric methods were studied, including PLS-1 with full-spectrum (Full-PLS) and PLS-1 using three variable selection methods, namely subset selection through a genetic algorithm (GA), uninformative variable elimination using iterative predictor weighting (IPW), and variable selection by sub-window permutation analysis (SwPA). The accuracy of the developed methods was evaluated through the root mean square error of prediction (RMSEP), the mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) and the recovery values. All methods showed more accurate prediction results in comparison with full-PLS calibration. Furthermore, the results indicate that the GA-PLS models showed the highest prediction accuracy among all other models with RMSEP and MAPE values of (0.0494 and 0.610) and (0.0163 and 0.321) for the estimation of ACT and ASC, respectively. The proposed methods were successfully applied to the determination of ACT and ASC in their combined dosage form. In addition, the results obtained were statistically compared to those of the conventionally used HPLC method and were found to be in good agreement. The main advantages of the developed methods over HPLC during routine analysis are that they are faster, inexpensive, simple to perform, without the need for major pretreatment of samples. Besides, no organic solvents are used, and thus toxicity and pollution are avoided.

Abstract
A rapid, sensitive, specific ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometric (UPLC-MS-MS) method was developed for the determination of erdosteine (ERD) in pharmaceutical preparations. The chromatographic separation was achieved with 0.1% formic acid in combination with acetonitrile (25:75 v/v) using C18 UPLC column, 95Å, 2.1 x 50 mm, 1.8 µm. The flow rate was 0.15 mL/min and the total run time was 2.0 min. The column temperature was kept constant at 40 °C and the injection volume was 5 μL. Ibuprofen was used as internal standard (IS). The mass transitions of ERD and IS were m/z 249.9 → 231.8 and 205.1 → 161.0. Also, another product ion of ERD (m/z 249.80 → 231.80) was monitored as predictive ion during the analysis. The standard calibration curve shows determination coefficient (R2) greater than 0.996 with a range of 1-5000 ng/mL using the linear regression model. Within-run precision and between-run repeatability were expressed as relative standard deviation and were lower than 5%. The developed method was successfully applied in the analysis of ERD-containing capsule formulation indicating that the method could be used for routine quality control analyses.
