Patients diagnosed with symptomatic peripheral artery disease (PAD) in the lower extremities have a higher likelihood of suffering from major vascular events. Recently, FDA has approved the combination therapy of aspirin (ASP) and rivaroxaban (ROX) to reduce acute limb ischemia and other comorbidities in (PAD) patients. Zero order and ratio absorption spectra were employed in three simple and accurate spectrophotometric techniques (dual wavelength (DW), ratio difference (RD) and derivative ratio (DD) for concurrent detection and quantification of ASP and ROX in their pure forms, lab synthetic mixtures and in biological fluid.

Since paracetamol is susceptible to degradation or some manufacturing-related impurities, its stability should be monitored continuously. The developed method in this study for the determination of PAR and PHE in presence of PAR impurities is considered a quality assessment tool especially when PAR impurities can be quantitatively determined.

Spectrophotometric data analysis using multivariate approaches has many useful applications. One of these applications is the analysis of active ingredients in presence of impurities. Four chemometric-assisted spectrophotometric methods, namely, principal component regression (PCR), partial least-squares (PLS), artificial neural networks (ANN) and multivariate curve resolution-alternating least squares (MCR-ALS) were proposed and validated.

Objective: The main task is to build up balanced models that convert these data into meaningful information to deal with. Hence, different chemometric models were applied for the analysis of data obtained from a mixture containing sofosbuvir, ledipasvir, velpatasvir, daclatasvir, and valacyclovir that were recently used internationally for their antiviral activity.
Background: Aminexil, a new compound patented by L'Oreal, has a stimulating effect on human keratin fibers. Pyridoxine HCl and niacinamide are added to boost the hair tonic effect of aminexil.
Objective: Two novel chromatographic methods were developed for the determination of aminexil (AX), niacinamide (NA) and pyridoxine HCl (PD) in the novel hair tonic preparation.
In the pharmaceutical industry, finding cost-effective and real-time analyzers that provide valid data is a good aim. The purpose of this work was to propose a link between the pharmaceutical industry and the recent innovations in solid-contact ion-selective electrodes (SC-ISEs) for the utilization of these electrodes as real-time analyzers to evaluate the concentration of tetrahydrozoline HCl in different matrices. The backbone of these new potentiometric sensors is the conjunction of calix[6]arene and (2-hydroxypropyl)-β-cyclodextrin as molecular recognition elements and a network of multi-walled carbon nanotubes as a solid transducer material between an ionophore-doped PVC membrane and microfabricated Cu electrodes.

The resolving power of spectrophotometric assisted mathematical techniques were demonstrated for the simultaneous determination of perindopril arginin (PER) and amlodipine besylate (AML) in presence of their degradation products. The conventional univariate methods include the absorptivity factor method (AFM) and absorption correction method (ACM), which were able to determine the two drugs, simultaneously, but not in the presence of their degradation products. In both methods, amlodipine was determined directly at 360 nm in the concentration range of 8-28 μg mL(-1), on the other hand perindopril was determined by AFM at 222.

Two smart, specific, accurate and precise spectrophotometric methods manipulating ratio spectra are developed for simultaneous determination of Methocarbamol (METH) and Paracetamol (PAR) in their combined pharmaceutical formulation without preliminary separation. Method A, is an extended ratio subtraction one (EXRSM) coupled with ratio subtraction method (RSM), which depends on subtraction of the plateau values from the ratio spectrum. Method B is a ratio difference spectrophotometric one (RDM) which measures the difference in amplitudes of ratio spectra between 278 and 286 nm for METH and 247 and 260 nm for PAR.
