Identification of related substances in minocycline hydrochloride via 2D-LC-Q-TOF /MS
Minocycline hydrochloride is a semisynthetic tetracycline derivative with a wide range of applications. The related substances significantly influence its efficacy and safety. However, the investigation of potential related substances in minocycline hydrochloride or its products remains incomplete. Herein, a reliable two-dimensional liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (2D-LC-Q-TOF/MS) method was developed for the separation and identification of the related substances in minocycline hydrochloride tablets. Seventeen related substances, including process-related substances and degradation products, were identified based on the chromatographic and mass spectrometric data. Notably, thirteen of these related substances were newly elucidated. Formation mechanisms of these related substances were proposed, and the degradation pathways of minocycline hydrochloride were systematically established. These findings are useful for the quality control of minocycline hydrochloride as well as other tetracycline drugs.
期刊介绍:
This journal is an international medium directed towards the needs of academic, clinical, government and industrial analysis by publishing original research reports and critical reviews on pharmaceutical and biomedical analysis. It covers the interdisciplinary aspects of analysis in the pharmaceutical, biomedical and clinical sciences, including developments in analytical methodology, instrumentation, computation and interpretation. Submissions on novel applications focusing on drug purity and stability studies, pharmacokinetics, therapeutic monitoring, metabolic profiling; drug-related aspects of analytical biochemistry and forensic toxicology; quality assurance in the pharmaceutical industry are also welcome.
Studies from areas of well established and poorly selective methods, such as UV-VIS spectrophotometry (including derivative and multi-wavelength measurements), basic electroanalytical (potentiometric, polarographic and voltammetric) methods, fluorimetry, flow-injection analysis, etc. are accepted for publication in exceptional cases only, if a unique and substantial advantage over presently known systems is demonstrated. The same applies to the assay of simple drug formulations by any kind of methods and the determination of drugs in biological samples based merely on spiked samples. Drug purity/stability studies should contain information on the structure elucidation of the impurities/degradants.
