A novel, sensitive, and green micellar UPLC method was proposed and validated for the simultaneous determination of four hypoglycemic agents used in type II diabetes mellitus treatment namely, pioglitazone, alogliptin, glimepiride, and vildagliptin. The developed UPLC method was successfully applied for quantitative analysis of these drugs in bulk, in pharmaceutical formulations, and in spiked human plasma. Chromatographic separation was carried out on a Kinetex® 1.

A new and simple spectrophotometric method was developed for the simultaneous determination of a new antidiabetic mixture of linagliptin and empagliflozin namely fourier self deconvulated method. The developed method based on minimal mathematical data processing on the zero order spectrum for solving sever overlapping spectra of the mentioned drugs in their pure forms and pharmaceutical dosage form. The zero order spectra of linagliptin and empagliflozin were deconvulated using Fourier transforms function.

Background: Paracetamol (PC) is one of the most widely used analgesic and antipyretic drugs and has recently been integrated into the supportive therapy of COVID-19. Pharmaceuticals containing methionine (MT) with PC may contribute to avoid hepatotoxicity and eventual PC overdose-dependent death.

Objective: The current work purposes to develop and validate two chromatographic methods for the simultaneous determination of MT and PC in the presence of two PC impurities (4-nitrophenol [NP] and 4-aminophenol [AP]).

Empagliflozin and linagliptin are newly approved FDA combination that used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) under trade name Glxambi. Two spectroflourimetric methods were developed for simple quantitative determination of empagliflozin and linagliptin in their pharmaceutical formulation and human plasma without need any tedious processing operations. Empagliflozin has a native fluorescence nature, therefore can be directly determined by measuring emission peak at 305 nm after excitation at 234 nm.

Two chromatographic methods were validated for the determination of the widely prescribed analgesic and antipyretic drug combination of paracetamol (PC) (recently integrated into the supportive treatment of COVID-19), propyphenazone (PZ) and caffeine (CF) in the presence of two PC impurities, namely 4-aminophenol and 4-nitrophenol. A "dual-mode" gradient high-performance liquid chromatography method was developed, where the separation was achieved via "dual-mode" gradient by changing both the ternary mobile phase composition (acetonitrile: methanol: water) and the flow rate. This enables a good resolution within a relatively shorter analysis time.

Three green, simple, precise, accurate and sensitive spectrophotometric methods were developed for the determination of a binary mixture of lidocaine hydrochloride (LDC) and cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) in the presence of dimethylaniline (DMA). In the three methods, the interference of DMA spectrum is eliminated using the ratio subtraction method. Method (A) depended on determining LDC and CPC by measuring the first derivative of the ratio spectra (DD) at 271.

Two chromatographic methods were developed, optimized and validated for simultaneous determination of calcipotriol monohydrate (CPM) and betamethasone dipropionate (BMD) in the presence of two dosage form additives named; butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) and alpha-tocopherol (TOCO). The proposed methods were accurate, sensitive and specific. The first method based on using aluminum thin-layer chromatographic plates precoated with silica gel GF254 as a stationary phase and chloroform-ethyl acetate-toluene (5:5:3, by volume) as a developing system.

Four precise, accurate, selective, and sensitive UV-spectrophotometric methods were developed and validated for the simultaneous determination of a binary mixture of Oxytetracycline HCl (OXY) and Flunixin Meglumine (FLU). The first method, dual wavelength (DW), depends on measuring the difference in absorbance (ΔA 273.4-327 nm) for the determination of OXY where FLU is zero while FLU is determined at ΔA 251.

Fluticasone propionate (FLU) and Azelastine hydrochloride (AZE) are co-formulated with phenylethyl alcohol (PEA) and Benzalkonium chloride (BENZ) (as preservatives) in pharmaceutical dosage form for treatment of seasonal allergies. Different spectrophotometric methods were used for the simultaneous determination of cited drugs in the dosage form. Direct spectrophotometric method was used for determining of AZE, while Derivative of double divisor of ratio spectra (DD-RS), Ratio subtraction coupled with ratio difference method (RS-RD) and Mean centering of the ratio spectra (MCR) are used for the determination of FLU.

A stability-indicating micellar liquid chromatographic (MLC) method was developed and validated for the quantitative determination of timolol maleate (TM) in the presence of its degradation products resulting from accelerated degradation in a run time not more than 8 min. TM was subjected to stress conditions of hydrolysis (including alkaline, acidic and thermal hydrolysis) and oxidation. An isocratic, rapid and mobile phase saving the micellar LC method was developed with a BioBasic phenyl column (150 × 1.

Four, accurate, precise, and sensitive spectrophotometric methods are developed for the simultaneous determination of a ternary mixture containing amlodipine besylate (AM), olmesartan medoxomil (OL) and hydrochlorothiazide (HZ), where AM is determined at its λ(max) 364.6 nm ((0)D), while (OL) and (HZ) are determined by different methods. Method (A) depends on determining OL and HZ by measuring the second derivative of the ratio spectra ((2)DD) at 254.

Four novel pramoxine HCl (PAM) selective electrodes were investigated with 2-nitrophenyl octylether as a plasticiser in a polymeric matrix of polyvinyl chloride (PVC). Sensor 1 was fabricated using sodium-tetraphenylborate (TPB) as an anionic exchanger without incorporation of an ionophore. Sensor 2 used 2-hydroxy propyl -cyclodextrin as an ionophore, while sensors 3 and 4 were constructed using 4-sulfocalix-6-arene and 4-sulfocalix-8-arene respectively as ionophores.

This paper reports the construction and evaluation of two ion selective electrodes for the determination midodrine hydrochloride (MD) by direct potentiometry in pure drug substance and in tablet formulations. Precipitation based technique was used for fabrication of the first membrane sensor (sensor 1) using phosphotungestate (PT) and dioctylphthalate (DOP) as cation exchanger and solvent mediator, respectively. beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD)-based technique with PT as a fixed anionic site in PVC matrix was used for fabrication of the second membrane sensor (sensor 2).

Two cyclobenzaprine hydrochloride (CZ) microsized graphite selective sensors were investigated with dibutylsebacate as a plasticizer in a polymeric matrix of carboxylated polyvinyl chloride (PVC-COOH) in the case of sensor 1, based on the interaction between the drug and the dissociated COOH groups in the PVC-COOH. Sensor 2 was based on the interaction between the drug and ammonium reineckate, which acted as anionic electroactive material in the presence of polyvinyl chloride matrix. The two sensors were constructed by using 2-hydroxy propyl beta-cyclodextrin as an ionophore, which has a significant influence on increasing the membrane sensitivity and selectivity of both sensors.
