Abstract
Ketotifen (KTF) is a type of asthma medication that is taken along with other antiasthma medications and may reduce the frequency, severity, and duration of asthma symptoms or attacks in children. This research introduces a novel spectrofluorimetric method for detecting KTF in its tablets and human blood plasma samples (spiked with KTF). The detection mechanism is based on a photoinduced electron transfer (PET) inhibition spectrofluorimetric approach for the sensitive detection of KTF different samples. By protonating KTF with 2.0 M acetic acid, the PET process is effectively inhibited, leading to a significant enhancement in the fluorescence intensity of KTF at 392 nm. This method detects KTF at values from 50 to 500 ng mL−1. The technique offers excellent detection and quantification limits of 13.41 and 40.65 ng mL−1, respectively. The range of the obtained percentage recoveries of KTF for spiked plasma samples was found to be 98.40% ± 1.30%–99.82% ± 1.20%, demonstrating the method's precision and reliability in diverse biological matrices. Also, the approach successfully evaluated KTF content uniformity in tablets without interference.
酮替芬(KTF)是一种哮喘药物,与其他抗哮喘药物一起服用,可以降低儿童哮喘症状或发作的频率、严重程度和持续时间。本研究介绍了一种新的荧光光谱法检测其片剂和人血浆样品(加标KTF)中的KTF。检测机制是基于光诱导电子转移(PET)抑制光谱荧光法灵敏检测不同样品的KTF。用2.0 M乙酸将KTF质子化后,PET过程被有效抑制,导致KTF在392 nm处的荧光强度显著增强。该方法检测的KTF值从50到500 ng mL−1。该技术具有优良的检测限和定量限,分别为13.41和40.65 ng mL−1。加标血浆样品中KTF的回收率为98.40%±1.30% ~ 99.82%±1.20%,证明了该方法在不同生物基质中的精密度和可靠性。该方法在无干扰的情况下成功评价了片剂中KTF的含量均匀性。
