Stability study of lipoic acid in the presence of vitamins A and E in o/w emulsions for cosmetic application.

The effectiveness of any cosmetic product containing a functional ingredient is determined by the skin delivery of the active molecule, which is influenced by the type of carrier and the molecule itself. Furthermore, the functional ingredient should be stable in the formulation. The purpose of this paper is to study the stability of lipoic acid in the presence of vitamins A (as palmitate) and E (as acetate) in semisolids for cosmetic use.

A stability-indicating HPLC method to determine cyproterone acetate in tablet formulations.

A simple and accurate liquid chromatographic method was developed to estimate cyproterone acetate (CA) in pharmaceuticals. The drug was chromatographed on a reversed-phase C18 column. Eluents were monitored at a wavelength of 254 nm utilizing a mixture (60:40) of acetonitrile and water.

Development and validation of a reversed-phase liquid chromatographic method for analysis of estradiol valerate and medroxyprogesterone acetate in a tablet formulation.

A simple and accurate liquid chromatographic method was developed for estimation of estradiol valerate and medroxyprogesterone acetate in pharmaceuticals. Drugs were chromatographed on a reverse phase C18 column, using a mixture (30:70) of ammonium nitrate buffer and acetonitrile and eluants monitored at a wavelength of 280 nm. Solution concentrations were measured on a weight basis to avoid the use of an internal standard.
