Abstract
The development of two eco-friendly analytical methods for the simultaneous determination of eight cardiovascular drugs; hydrochlorothiazide (HCT), captopril (CPL), lisinopril (LSP), valsartan (VAL), atorvastatin (ATR), bisoprolol (BSL), amlodipine (AML) and carvedilol (CVL); alongside with the nutraceutical vincamine (VIC) is essential for sustainable pharmaceutical analysis. This study explores the application of Micellar Electro Kinetic Chromatography (MEKC) and High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) for this purpose. In MEKC method, the separation was done using fused silica capillary (41.5 cm × 50 µm id) and a back ground electrolyte consisting of 50 mM borate buffer (pH 9) containing 50 mM sodium lauryl sulphate (SLS) and 10% organic modifier (Acetonitrile). In HPLC method, separation was performed on a ZORBAX Extend-C18 (4.6 × 250 mm, 5 µm) column, using a gradient mobile phase consisting of 50 mM phosphate buffer pH 3 and methanol. Both methods attained good linearity (r ≥ 0.9996) with low values of LOD and LOQ. Both methods were successfully applied in the determination of co-administered single, binary and ternary dosage form of the studied drugs. Moreover, application of various combinations of co-administered dosage forms was achieved in rat plasma, confirming the applicability of these methods in different matrices. The use of micellar solutions in MEKC enhances separation efficiency while reducing the need for organic solvents, aligning with green chemistry principles. HPLC methods were optimized using environmentally benign solvents, ensuring reduced toxicity and waste production. The methodologies were evaluated through green, white, and blue metrics to ensure comprehensive sustainability, considering ecological impact, safety, and practical efficiency. These methods were not only cost-effective and time-saving but achieved high efficiency, sensitivity, and reproducibility making them ideal for routine use in pharmaceutical analysis.
期刊介绍:
BMC Chemistry, formerly known as Chemistry Central Journal, is now part of the BMC series journals family.
Chemistry Central Journal has served the chemistry community as a trusted open access resource for more than 10 years – and we are delighted to announce the next step on its journey. In January 2019 the journal has been renamed BMC Chemistry and now strengthens the BMC series footprint in the physical sciences by publishing quality articles and by pushing the boundaries of open chemistry.
