Background: Allergic diseases are considered as the major burden on public health with increased prevalence globally. Histamine H1-receptor antagonists are the foremost commonly used drugs in the treatment of allergic disorders. The target drug in this study, loratadine, belongs to this class of drugs and its biometabolite desloratadine which is also a non-sedating H1 receptor antagonist with anti-histaminic activity being 2.5 to 4 times greater than loratadine. This study aimed to develop and validate a novel isocratic Reversed-phase High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (RP-HPLC) method for rapid and simultaneous separation and determination of loratadine and its metabolite, desloratadine in human plasma. Methods: The drug extraction method from plasma was based on protein precipitation technique. The separation was carried out on a Thermo Scientific BDS Hypersil C18 column (5μm, 250 x 4.60 mm) in a mobile phase of MeOH: 0.025M KH2PO4 adjusted to pH 3.50 using orthophosphoric acid (85: 15, v/v) at an ambient temperature. The flow rate was maintained at 1 mL/min and maximum absorption was measured using the PDA detector at 248 nm. Results: The retention times of loratadine and desloratadine in plasma samples were recorded to be 4.10 and 5.08 minutes, respectively, indicating a short analysis time. Limits of detection were found to be 1.80 and 1.97 ng/mL for loratadine and desloratadine, respectively, showing a high degree of sensitivity of the method. The method was then validated according to FDA guidelines for the determination of the two analytes in human plasma. Conclusion: The results obtained indicate that the proposed method is rapid, sensitive in the nanogram range, accurate, selective, robust and reproducible compared to other reported methods.

An isocratic Reversed-Phase High Performance Liquid Chromatography method has been developed for rapid and simultaneous separation and estimation of two antibiotics, namely, nitazoxanide and ofloxacin, in human plasma. Separation was carried out on Altima C8 (150 x 4.6 mm, 5µ) column using a mobile phase of 0.1% ortho phosphoric acid: acetonitrile (50:50, V/V) at 260 nm. The retention time of nitazoxanide and ofloxacin was noted to be 4.850 and 7.949 min, respectively. The average % recovery for nitazoxanide and ofloxacin were 98.012 % and 94.176 %, respectively and reproducibility was found to be satisfactory. The linearity was investigated in the concentration range of 0.02-2 µg/ml (r2=0.9996) for nitazoxanide and 0.008-0.8 µg/ml (r2=0.9998) for ofloxacin. The lower limits of quantification were 0.0196 µg/ml and 0.0079 µg/ml for nitazoxanide and ofloxacin, respectively, which reach the level of both drugs possibly found in human plasma. The proposed method can be applied for etermination of nitazoxanide and ofloxacin from dosage forms during pharmacokinetic study.

Few high-performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) methods have been developed for the full quantitation of fatty acids from human plasma without derivatization. Therefore, we propose a method that requires fewer sample preparation steps, which can be used for the quantitation of several polyunsaturated fatty acids in human plasma. The method offers rapid, accurate, sensitive, and simultaneous quantification of omega 3 (α-linolenic, eicosapentaenoic, and docosahexaenoic acids) and omega 6 fatty acids (arachidonic and linoleic acids) using high-performance LC-MS/MS. The selected fatty acids were analysed in lipid extracts from both free and total forms. Chromatographic separation was achieved using a reversed phase C18 column with isocratic flow using ammonium acetate for improving negative electrospray ionization (ESI) response. Mass detection was performed in multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode, and deuterated internal standards were used for each target compound. The limits of quantification were situated in the low nanomolar range, excepting linoleic acid, for which the limit was in the high nanomolar range. The method was validated according to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services guidelines, and offers a fast, sensitive, and reliable quantification of selected omega 3 and 6 fatty acids in human plasma.

Abstract A simple, precise, rapid and accurate reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) method was developed and validated for analysis of safinamide mesylate (SAF) in presence of its basic degradate, and co-administered drugs levodopa and ondansetron. The mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile and 20 mM potassium dihyrogen orthophosphate buffer having pH = 5 (40: 60 v/v). Quantification was achieved with ultraviolet detector at 226 nm. The linear range was 0.5–10 μg/mL with mean recovery ± SD of 99.72 ± 1.59. The peak purity of SAF in pharmaceutical preparation spiked with its degradate and co-administered drugs revealed symmetry factor (999.8) within the calculated threshold (>998.1). The suggested method was validated in compliance with the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) guidelines and statistically compared with the manufacturer HPLC method with no significant difference in terms of accuracy and precision. The assay method was successfully used to estimate SAF in tablets with good percentage recoveries. The high sensitivity (lower than Cmax of the drug 0.65 μg/mL) of the proposed HPLC method enabled the determination of SAF in presence of its basic degradate and co-administered drug, ondansetron in human plasma with acceptable accuracy. The suggested HPLC method could be used in Quality Control (QC) lab for analysis of the studied drug in pharmaceutical preparation.
