Chemometrics-assisted spectrophotometric green method for correcting interferences in biowaiver studies: Application to assay and dissolution profiling study of donepezil hydrochloride tablets.

A green, simple and cost effective chemometric UV-Vis spectrophotometric method has been developed and validated for correcting interferences that arise during conducting biowaiver studies. Chemometric manipulation has been done for enhancing the results of direct absorbance, resulting from very low concentrations (high incidence of background noise interference) of earlier points in the dissolution timing in case of dissolution profile using first and second derivative (D1 & D2) methods and their corresponding Fourier function convoluted methods (D1/FF& D2/FF). The method applied for biowaiver study of Donepezil Hydrochloride (DH) as a representative model was done by comparing two different dosage forms containing 5mg DH per tablet as an application of a developed chemometric method for correcting interferences as well as for the assay and dissolution testing in its tablet dosage form.

Green gas chromatographic stability-indicating method for the determination of Lacosamide in tablets. Application to in-vivo human urine profiling.

A direct, eco-friendly, stability-indicating GC method was developed for the determination of Lacosamide (LCM) in tablet dosage forms in presence of its degradation products as well as in human urine in presence of the co-administered drug Zonisamide (ZON). The assay method in tablets was validated according to the ICH guidelines, while the method for determination of LCM in urine was validated according to FDA; Bioanalytical Method Validation guidance.

Liquid chromatographic determination of amikacin sulphate after pre-column derivatization.

A novel high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method with a pre-column derivatization reaction has been developed and validated. The method was used for the determination of the aminoglycoside antibiotic amikacin sulphate (AMK) in the presence of its synthetic precursor kanamycin sulphate in pure form and in different pharmaceutical preparations. The pre-column derivatization was based on Hantzsch condensation reaction and the obtained coloured products were separated using an isocratic reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatographic method.
