Ultrasensitive turn-off fluorescent sensor for estimation of the new influenza antiviral prodrug baloxavir marboxil in its pharmaceutical formulation.

Carbon quantum dots (CQDs) are a recently developed class of fluorescent nanoparticles made from carbon. Co-doping with heteroatoms such as nitrogen and sulfur improved the properties and generated a high quantum yield. In the proposed study, we utilized a simple, cost-effective, single-stage hydrothermal approach to produce extreme photoluminescence co-doped, nitrogen and sulfur, CQDs (N,S-CODs).

LC-MS/MS-based metabolite quantitation of the antiviral prodrug baloxavir marboxil, a new therapy for acute uncomplicated influenza, in human plasma: Application to a human pharmacokinetic study.

Baloxavir marboxil (BXM) is a novel orally administrated prodrug for the treatment of acute uncomplicated influenza. In the present study, a bioanalytical LC-MS/MS method was developed and validated for the quantification of baloxavir acid (BXA), the active form of baloxavir marboxil in plasma of healthy volunteers using dolutegravir as an internal standard (IS) following plasma protein precipitation with acetonitrile. BXA and the internal standard were chromatographically separated using Waters Xterra® MS C column (5 µm, 4.

A validated LC-MS/MS method for determination of antiviral prodrug molnupiravir in human plasma and its application for a pharmacokinetic modeling study in healthy Egyptian volunteers.

A fully validated, simple, rapid and reproducible liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method was developed to determine NHC (N-hydroxycytidine), the active metabolite of Molnupiravir (MOL) in human plasma; one of the limited treatment options for SARS-CoV-2 in plasma of healthy volunteers. The internal standard (IS) used was ribavirin. The extraction of analyte and IS from plasma was performed using acetonitrile as a solvent for protein precipitation.

A novel stability-indicating HPLC-DAD method for determination of favipiravir, a potential antiviral drug for COVID-19 treatment; application to degradation kinetic studies and in-vitro dissolution profiling.

Modern pharmaceutical analysis is paying a lot of attention to the stability of novel drug formulations as well as establishment of suitable stability-indicating approaches. In the current work, a comprehensive stability-indicating HPLC-DAD method has been developed and validated for determination of favipiravir (FAV) which is a novel and emerging antiviral option in COVID-19 treatment. The stability of FAV was examined under different stress conditions.

A novel LC-MS/MS method for determination of the potential antiviral candidate favipiravir for the emergency treatment of SARS-CoV-2 virus in human plasma: Application to a bioequivalence study in Egyptian human volunteers.

A novel, fast and sensitive LC-MS/MS method was developed and validated for the bioanalysis of the antiviral agent favipiravir (FAV); a promising candidate for treatment of SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) in human plasma using pyrazinamide as an internal standard (IS). Simple protein precipitation was adopted for plasma sample preparation using methanol. Chromatographic separation was accomplished on Eclipse plus C column (50 × 4.

Pharmacokinetic evaluation of daclatasvir and ledipasvir in healthy volunteers using a validated highly sensitive spectrofluorimetric method.

A simple, highly sensitive and selective spectrofluorimetric method has been developed and fully validated for the determination of daclatasvir (DAC) and ledipasvir (LED) in tablets and human plasma. The method is based on measurement of the native fluorescence in methanol at λ 384 nm after excitation at λ 318 nm for DAC and in acetonitrile at λ 402 nm after excitation at λ 340 nm for LED. The fluorescence intensity (FI) concentration plot was rectilinear over the ranges 1.

Development and validation of LC-MS/MS method for simultaneous determination of sofosbuvir and daclatasvir in human Plasma: Application to pharmacokinetic study.

A simple and highly sensitive liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) bioanalytical method was developed and fully validated for the first time for the simultaneous determination of newly discovered antiviral drugs, namely sofosbuvir (SOF) and daclatasvir (DAC) in human plasma. Tadalafil (TAD) was used as internal standard (IS). SOF, DAC and TAD (IS) were extracted from plasma using liquid-liquid extraction technique with methyl tert-butyl ether.

Development a validated highly sensitive LC-MS/MS method for simultaneous quantification of Ledipasvir, sofosbuvir and its major metabolite GS-331007 in human plasma: Application to a human pharmacokinetic study.

A highly sensitive and rapid LC-MS/MS method was developed, fully optimized and validated for the simultaneous determination of Ledipasvir (LED) and Sofosbuvir (SOF) in the presence of its major metabolite GS-331007 in human plasma using Daclatasvir as internal standard (IS). The extraction of analytes and IS from plasma was performed using liquid-liquid extraction with ethyl acetate.
