Abstract
Azelastine hydrochloride (AZE) and Mometasone furoate (MOM) combination is used to treat allergic rhinitis' symptoms. The aim of this work is to qualitatively and quantitatively analyze both medications using univariate and multivariate spectrophotometric techniques in a comparative study. Regarding univariate approaches; AZE was quantified by direct measurement at 291 nm within (5–60 μg/mL) concentration range. While, MOM was assayed by absorption correction (AC) approach at 250 nm within the range of (2–18 μg/mL). The LOD values for AZE and MOM were (0.79 μg/mL) and (0.21 μg/mL), respectively. Classical least squares (CLS), partial least squares (PLS), principal component regression (PCR), multivariate curve resolution-alternating least squares (MCR-ALS) and artificial neural networks (ANN) were the applied multivariate chemometric models. The proposed methods were utilized for analyzing the binary mixture in laboratory-synthetic mixtures and pharmaceutical preparation with correlation coefficients values ≥ 0.9996. No statistically significant variation was found between the applied methods and the reported HPLC one. The methods’ sustainability was assessed using blue applicability grade index (BAGI) and Red-Green-Blue 12 (RGB12) metrics. The obtained findings revealed that the suggested methodologies are safer option than the published HPLC technique for the conventional pharmaceutical analysis of the studied medications.
期刊介绍:
The journal''s title Analytical Biochemistry: Methods in the Biological Sciences declares its broad scope: methods for the basic biological sciences that include biochemistry, molecular genetics, cell biology, proteomics, immunology, bioinformatics and wherever the frontiers of research take the field.
The emphasis is on methods from the strictly analytical to the more preparative that would include novel approaches to protein purification as well as improvements in cell and organ culture. The actual techniques are equally inclusive ranging from aptamers to zymology.
The journal has been particularly active in:
-Analytical techniques for biological molecules-
Aptamer selection and utilization-
Biosensors-
Chromatography-
Cloning, sequencing and mutagenesis-
Electrochemical methods-
Electrophoresis-
Enzyme characterization methods-
Immunological approaches-
Mass spectrometry of proteins and nucleic acids-
Metabolomics-
Nano level techniques-
Optical spectroscopy in all its forms.
The journal is reluctant to include most drug and strictly clinical studies as there are more suitable publication platforms for these types of papers.
