Development and validation of a stability-indicating RP-HPLC method for simultaneous assay of betamethasone dipropionate, chlorocresol, and for the estimation of betamethasone dipropionate related compounds in a pharmaceutical cream and ointment.

A new stability-indicating reversed-phase HPLC (RP-HPLC) method has been developed and validated for simultaneous assay of betamethasone dipropionate (BD) and chlorocresol and also for the estimation of BD related compounds in a pharmaceutical cream matrix. In addition, this newly developed RP-HPLC method was also demonstrated as suitable for a pharmaceutical ointment product that does not contain chlorocresol. The RP-HPLC method uses a Waters SymmetryShield RP18 analytical column (150 × 4.

Thermodynamic studies of the interaction of molecular micelles and copolymerized molecular micelles with benzodiazepines and alkyl phenyl ketones using MEKC.

In this study, polymers of sodium 10-undecenoyl L-leucinate (SUL) and sodium undecenyl sulfate (SUS) as well as their copolymerized molecular micelles (CoPMMs) were applied in MEKC as pseudostationary phases to separate benzodiazepines and alkyl phenyl ketones. SDS, a common pseudostationary phase used in MEKC, was also used for comparison. The van't Hoff relationship was applied to compute the temperature dependence of the MEKC retention factors of the test solutes to estimate the enthalpy, entropy, and the Gibbs free energy.

Monomeric and polymeric anionic gemini surfactants and mixed surfactant systems in micellar electrokinetic chromatography. Part I: characterization and application as novel pseudostationary phases.

Sodium di(undecenyl) tartarate monomer (SDUT), a vesicle-forming amphiphilic compound possessing two hydrophilic carboxylate head groups and two hydrophobic undecenyl chains gemini surfactant, was prepared and polymerized to form a polymeric gemini surfactant (i.e., poly-SDUT).

Novel anionic copolymerized surfactants of mixed achiral and chiral surfactants as pseudostationary phases for micellar electrokinetic chromatography.

One disadvantage of amino acid-based chiral selectors for micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC) is that either they have very low solubility or are insoluble at acidic pHs. In order to increase solubilities at lower pHs, we have synthesized a highly water-soluble achiral surfactant and copolymerized it with an amino acid-based chiral surfactant. These two surfactants were polymerized either separately or at various molar rations of binary solutions, yielding pure molecular or copolymerized surfactant (CoPS), respectively.

Copolymerized polymeric surfactants: characterization and application in micellar electrokinetic chromatography.

An achiral monomeric surfactant (sodium 10-undecenyl sulfate, SUS) and a chiral surfactant (sodium 10-undecenoyl L-leucinate, SUL) were synthesized and polymerized individually to form poly-SUS and poly-SUL. These surfactants were then copolymerized at various molar ratios to produce a variety of copolymerized surfactants (CoPSs), possessing both achiral (sulfate) and chiral (leucinate) head groups. The CoPSs, poly-SUS, poly-SUL, and sodium dodecyl sulfate were characterized using several analytical techniques.

Separation of achiral and chiral analytes using polymeric surfactants with ionic liquids as modifiers in micellar electrokinetic chromatography.

In this study, we report the use of ionic liquids as modifiers in the separation of achiral and chiral analytes in micellar electrokinetic chromatography. In this investigation, polymeric surfactants and ionic liquids were added to a low-conducting buffer solution. The polymeric surfactants used in this study were poly(sodium N-undecylelinic sulfate) and poly(sodium oleyl-l-leucylvalinate).
