Abstract A simple stereoselective high performance liquid chromatographic method was developed for the determination of the in vitro transport of the enantiomers of nateglinide (N -(trans -4-isopropylcyclohexyl-carbonyl)-phenylalanine) in the rat intestine using a Chiralcel OJ-RH column (150×4.0 mm, 5 ,m). The effects of the mobile phase composition, pH, the flow rate, and the temperature on the chromatographic separation were investigated. The enantioseparation was achieved at 33°C using a mobile phase containing 100 mM potassium dihydrogen phosphate, pH 2.5, and ACN (32:68 v/v) delivered at a flow rate of 1 mL/min. The analytes were monitored at 210 nm and linearity (r >0.99) was obtained for a concentration range of 0.5,50 ,g/mL. The LOD and LOQ were 0.2 and 0.5 ,g/mL for the R -enantiomer and 0.2 and 0.8 ,g/mL for the S -enantiomer, respectively. Both, the intra- and interday accuracy and precision of the calibration curves were determined. The method was successfully applied to estimate the in vitro passage of the enantiomers and the racemate of nateglinide in duodenum, jejunum, and ileum of rats. Generally, higher concentrations of nateglinide and the S -enantiomer were observed when the racemate was administered compared to administration of the individual enantiomers of nateglinide.

Optimization of the separation conditions of tetracyclines on a preselected reversed-phase column with embedded urea group

Abstract The use of a C12 stationary phase with embedded polar group has been investigated for the separation of seven tetracyclines. The influence of pH, organic modifier, buffer, and temperature on the peak shape and analyte separation was discussed. It appears that all the chromatographic conditions had a great effect on both the resolution and peak shape whereas the elution order was not affected. The baseline separation with symmetrical peaks of the seven tetracyclines can be obtained with a mobile phase containing either 5 mM phosphate buffer pH 2.5/ACN (84 : 16 v/v) or 5 mM perchlorate buffer pH 2.5/ACN (75 : 25 v/v) at a temperature not exceeding 20°C. This study reveals that the retention mechanism is ion-pairing. [source]


Photostability studies for micellar liquid chromatographic determination of nifedipine in serum and urine samples

BIOMEDICAL CHROMATOGRAPHY, Issue 2 2006
M. T. Gil-Agustí
Abstract Nifedipine is a photosensitive compound that is converted into its 4-(2-nitrophenyl) pyridine and 4-(2-nitrosophenyl) pyridine homologue. In order to obtain the most adequate conditions for handling nifedipine solutions in the analytical laboratory, a number of studies on the decomposition of this compound were performed. A simple micellar liquid chromatographic procedure was described to determine nifedipine in different biological matrices such as serum and urine, and to control its decomposition. To perform the analysis, nifedipine was dissolved in 0.1 m SDS at pH 3 and chromatographed using a mobile phase containing 0.125 m SDS,3% pentanol, pH 3 on a C18 column and UV detection at 235 nm. The chromatographic analysis time was 8 min. The response of the drug for both biological matrices was linear in the 1,100 µg/mL range, with r2 > 0.997 at all times. Repeatability, intermediate precision (CV, %) and limits of quantification and detection (ng/mL) were 0.19, 4.3, 104 and 31 in serum and 0.81, 2.1, 136 and 41 in urine. The method developed here does not show interferences or matrix effects produced by endogenous compounds. Micellar media and mobile phases have the advantage of stabilising the compounds, thus preventing photodegradation and allowing the direct injection of biological samples.

Simultaneous determination of estramustine phosphate and its four metabolites in human plasma by liquid chromatography,ionspray mass spectrometry

BIOMEDICAL CHROMATOGRAPHY, Issue 5 2004
M. Breda
Abstract A sensitive and selective method, using liquid chromatography,ionspray mass spectrometry, was developed and validated for the simultaneous determination of Estracyt (estramustine phosphate) and its four metabolites, estramustine, estromustine, estrone and estradiol, in human plasma. Deuterated internal standards were available for all analytes. The ,ve compounds were extracted from plasma by protein precipitation with acetonitrile. The chromatographic separation was performed using a Zorbax SB C18, (150 × 4.6 mm i.d., 5 µm) reversed-phase column under gradient conditions with a mobile phase containing 2 mm ammonium acetate buffer (pH 6.8) and acetonitrile. MS detection was by electrospray ionization with multiple reaction monitoring in the positive ion mode for estramustine phosphate, estromustine and estramustine, and in the negative ion mode for estrone and estradiol. The limit of quantitation was 10 ng/mL for estramustine phosphate, 3 ng/mL for estromustine, estramustine and estrone and 30 ng/mL for estradiol. Linearity was veri,ed from these LLOQs up to about 4000 ng/mL for the parent drug and 2000 ng/mL for the metabolites. Inter-day precision and accuracy values were all less than 15%. This assay was applied successfully to the routine analysis of human plasma samples collected in cancer patients administered estramustine phosphate intravenously.
