Levetiracetam (LVT) is a widely used antiepileptic drug (AED). A less invasive sampling method for therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) would be very useful particularly for children. Saliva has been shown as an adequate sample for TDM of some AEDs. Due to the high hydrophilicity of LVT its separation on common stationary phases is quite a challenge so that previous methods for determination of LVT in saliva employed either gradient high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) system or mass spectrometer as a detector. In this study the retention behavior of LVT on some common stationary phases was examined, with C8 being the most retentive. A simple isocratic HPLC method that is based on simple protein precipitation was developed and validated for the determination of LVT in saliva. The method was applied to a sample group of epileptic children for the purpose of assessing potential correlation with plasma LVT levels and to investigate patient’s compliance. The results confirmed a reasonable correlation between plasma and salivary levels of LVT (R = 0.9) which supports the use of saliva for TDM of LVT. The study also revealed a significant percentage of epileptic patients having LVT levels below the estimated therapeutic range.

Acebrophylline is an anti-inflammatory and airway mucus regulator. It had ambroxol and theophylline-7-acetic acid, the former facilitates the biosynthesis of pulmonary surfactant which raises blood levels of ambroxol, by stimulating surfactant production. Chemical structure of acebrophylline is 1, 2, 3, 6- tetrahydro-1, 3-dimethyl-2, 6-dioxo-7H-purine-7-aceticacidwithtrans-4-[(2-amino-3, 5 dibromophenyl) methyl] aminio] cyclohexanol. Survey revealed that various analytical methods like spectrophotometric, HPLC, and RP-HPLC, have been reported for the determination of Ambroxol HCl and Theophylline-7-acetic acid, individually and in combination with some other drugs. The aim of present study was to develop and validate stability indicating HPLC method for the analyses of acebrophylline. High performance liquid chromatographic method has been developed for the estimation of Acebrophylline. Reported methods also include RP-HPLC method for determination of Acebrophylline. The developed UV spectrophotometric method is simple and requires less time for the analysis. It is also rapid and economic method.

Background: Sertraline Hydrochloride, an oral anti-depressant, has two chiral centers and its cis enantiomers and trans diasteromers are defined as related substances by United State Pharmacopoeia and British Pharmacopoeia. Introduction: A selective, stereospecific and economical high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method was developed for the determination of sertraline enantiomeric forms. The HPLC-UV method was developed and optimized in the terms of system suitability parameters. Methods: The elution was made using a mixture of -cyclodextrin (-CD) and hydroxypropyl - cyclodextrin (HP -CD). Analysis was performed on a Zorbax SB C-18 column (250 x 4.6mm), 5μ with the mobile phase consisting of 170mM KH2PO4 containing -CD and HP -CD (pH: 3.0 with dil. H3PO4) and acetonitrile (75:25, v/v). Flow rate was kept at 1.0mL/min and the detection was carried out by UV at 220nm. Enantio-separation for sertraline was carried out using two different CDs (β-CD and HP β- CD) at different concentrations in the mobile phase. Results: Complete resolution of all the four isomers was achieved using 9mM β-CD and 15mM HP β- CD in the mobile phase. The development was optimized using central composite quadric model, where concentration of -CD and HP -CD were varied and resolution between trans diastereomeric impurities was calculated as a response. Conclusion: Resolution between any pair of isomers was found to be more than 2. Method development and optimization leading to the best resolution between the isomers of sertraline is described in detail.

The runtime under these chromatographic conditions was less than 8 min. The calibration plot was linear over the concentration range of 2.5–20.0 μg mL−1 with limits of detection and quantification values of 50 and 200 ng mL−1, respectively. The precision and accuracy of the method were assessed by determination of validation data for precision (intraday RSD values of 0.11–0.28%, interday RSD values of 0.15–0.46%), accuracy (0.87–2.80% intraday, 0.33–1.80% interday), and specificity, in accordance with the ICH guidelines.

Tea tree oil, an active ingredient of skin, hair and nail care cosmeceuticals, has claims for topical antimicrobial, analgesic and anti-inflammatory activity. Its complex composition is governed by ISO 4730:2017. Terpinene-4-ol is the principal constituent of the oil (35% - 48%) followed by γ-terpinene (14% -28%), α-terpinene (6%-12%) and 1,8-cineole (≤15%). A reversed-phase, isocratic high performance liquid chromatographic method has been developed and validated for routine determination of tea tree oil based on1,8-cineole content in bulk and commercially available cosmeceuticals using C18 column, methanol-water (70:30 v/v) as mobile phase and flow rate of 1mL/min. UV detection was done at 200 nm. Linearity of the method was established for 20-100μL/mL (R2 = 0.9992) with LOD, LOQ values of 0.5594 μL/mL and 5.5941μL/mL respectively. The % RSD values for robustness and precision were <1% and recovery ranged between 99.09-102.96%. The method was successfully applied for determination of 1,8-cineole content in cosmeceuticals.

A simple, accurate, precise high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method has been developed and validated for the simultaneous determination of abacavir sulphate (ABA) and lamivudine (LAM) in combined dosage form. Separation was performed on a C18 column [Agilent ODS UG 5 column, 250 mm x 4.5 mm], with methanol: water (50:50 V/V) isocratic elution using a flow rate of 1mL/min. Good sensitivity was observed with UV detection at 277 nm. After method development, the interference of other active compounds and excipients, repeatability and linearity, were investigated. Retention times of LAM and ABA were found to be 3.3 and 6.3 min, respectively. The method was validated over the range from 2.5-12.5 μg/mL for LAM and 5-25 μg/mL for ABA with correlation coefficients of 0.9997 and 0.9996, respectively. This method was shown to be accurate, robust, selective, linear, and repeatable and can be successfully employed in routine quality control for the simultaneous analysis of ABA and LAM in tablets.
