Abstract
This research aimed to develop a new method for simultaneously estimating the presence of azithromycin (AZT) and rifampicin (RIF) in a capsule formulation using reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography. The developed method utilized a Gemini column with a 60:40% v/v acetonitrile and potassium dihydrogen phosphate mobile phase, a flow rate of 1 mL/min, and an injection volume of 20 μL. The detection wavelengths of 210 and 254 nm for AZT and RIF, respectively, were used. Validation ensures specificity with a peak purity index > 0.99999 for AZT and >0.99995 for RIF, affirming unambiguous analyte detection. The system suitability test, within acceptable limits, validates method reliability. Linearity calibration curves (R2 = 0.998) cover a 25-150% target concentration range. Accuracy studies employing the standard addition method yield recovery values between 96.6 and 103.9% for both drugs, confirming method accuracy. Precision studies reveal % relative standard deviation values consistently below 2%, highlighting reproducibility. Robustness testing supports method reliability under varying conditions. Application to a pharmaceutical capsule formulation demonstrates the method's practicality, accurately quantifying AZT (98.30%) and RIF (99.37%). This study provides a validated analytical approach for simultaneous quantification in commercial pharmaceutical products containing both drugs, enhancing pharmaceutical quality control for critical antibiotics in complex formulations.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Chromatographic Science is devoted to the dissemination of information concerning all methods of chromatographic analysis. The standard manuscript is a description of recent original research that covers any or all phases of a specific separation problem, principle, or method. Manuscripts which have a high degree of novelty and fundamental significance to the field of separation science are particularly encouraged. It is expected the authors will clearly state in the Introduction how their method compares in some markedly new and improved way to previous published related methods. Analytical performance characteristics of new methods including sensitivity, tested limits of detection or quantification, accuracy, precision, and specificity should be provided. Manuscripts which describe a straightforward extension of a known analytical method or an application to a previously analyzed and/or uncomplicated sample matrix will not normally be reviewed favorably. Manuscripts in which mass spectrometry is the dominant analytical method and chromatography is of marked secondary importance may be declined.
