Large volume sample stacking with EOF and sweeping in CE for determination of common preservatives in cosmetic products by chemometric experimental design

This study proposes a capillary electrophoresis method incorporating large volume sample stacking, EOF and sweeping for detection of common preservatives used in cosmetic products. The method was developed using chemometric experimental design (fractional factorial design and central composite design) to determine multiple separation variables by efficient steps. The samples were loaded by hydrodynamic injection (10 psi, 90 s), and separated by phosphate buffer (50 mM, pH 3) containing 30% methanol and 80 mM SDS at -20 kV. During method validation, calibration curves were found to be linear over a range of 5-100 μg/mL for butyl paraben and isobutyl paraben; 0.05-10 μg/mL for ethyl paraben; 0.2-50 μg/mL for dehydroacetic acid; 0.5-70 μg/mL for methyl paraben; 5-350 μg/mL for sorbic acid; 0.02-450 μg/mL for p-hydroxybenzoic acid and 0.05-10 μg/mL for salicylic acid and benzoic acid. The analytes were analysed simultaneously and their detection limits (S/N = 3) were down to 0.005-2 μg/mL. The analysis method was successfully used for detection of preservatives used in commercial cosmetics.     

HPLC separation of acetaminophen and its impurities using a mixed-mode reversed-phase/cation exchange stationary phase

Determination of acetaminophen and its main impurities: 4-nitrophenol, 4'-chloroacetanilide, as well as 4-aminophenol and its degradation products, p-benzoquinone and hydroquinone has been developed and validated by a new high-performance liquid chromatography method. Chromatographic separation has been obtained on a Hypersil Duet C18/SCX column, using gradient elution, with a mixture of phosphate buffer (pH = 4.88) and methanol as a mobile phase. Analysis time did not exceed 14.5 min and good resolutions, peak shapes and asymmetries have resulted. The linearity of the method has been tested in the range of 5.0-60 μg/mL for acetaminophen and 0.5-6 μg/mL for the other compounds. The limits of detection and quantification have been also established to be lower than 0.1 μg/mL and 0.5 μg/mL, respectively. The method has been successfully applied for the analysis of commercial acetaminophen preparations.

Development and Application of Ultra Performance Liquid Chromatography Method to the Quantification of the Biotransformation of Methyl Paraben in Eisenia foetida

A simple and quick ultra performance liquid chromatography method (UPLC) has been developed for determination of methyl paraben (MP) and its major metabolites p‐hydroxybenzoic acid (pHBA) and phenol (Phe), following its biotransformations in Eisenia foetida. After different exposure time to paper contact test, the presence of methyl paraben and his biotransformation products in adult earthworms was monitored. Determination of its metabolites was achieved with a BEH (bridged ethane‐silicon hybrid) C₁₈ column (2.1×50 mm i.d., 1.7 µm particle size), using methanol/water/phosphoric acid as mobile phase, under a gradient elution program, and a PDA (photo‐diode array) detection (quantification with MaxPlot in the range 210–400 nm). The absorption of MP did not exceed 30% and in the first 4–6 h after exposure only minute amounts of pHBA and Phe were detected in the worm homogenates. After 48 h of exposures, almost 70% of absorbed MP was already metabolized to Phe and around 20% could be found as pHBA.

Development and validation of a new RP-HPLC method for determination of quercetin in green tea

Green tea (Camellia sinensis) contains quercetin as a bioactive compound. Quercetin has anti-inflammatory and anticancer effects. The aim of this paper was to develop and validate an RP-HPLC method for determination of quercetin in green tea simpler and faster than other available methods. RP-HPLC analysis was performed by isocratic elution with a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. Pure methanol was used as a mobile phase, while the quantification was effected at 370 nm. The separation was performed at 35°C using a C₁₈ column (4.6 × 250 mm, 5 μm). The results showed that the peak area response is linear within the concentration range of 10–70 μg/mL (r = 0.9986). The values of LOD and LOQ were 1.2 and 4 μg/mL, respectively. For the intra-day and intra-instrument reproducibility, RSD were in the range of 0.05–0.84% and 0.89–1.55%, respectively. The results of accuracy for the different concentrations of quercetin (40, 50 and 60 μg/mL) were 101.3, 98.4, and 98.2%. The developed and validated method was successfully applied to the determination of quercetin in green tea extract.     

Biosensor based on paraffin/graphite modified with sweet potato tissue for the determination of hydroquinone in cosmetic cream in organic phase

An organic-phase biosensor based on paraffin/graphite modified with sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam.) tissue as the source of peroxidase was developed and used for determining hydroquinone in cosmetic creams. This enzyme in the presence of hydrogen peroxide catalyses the oxidation of hydroquinone to p-quinone which electrochemical reduction back to hydroquinone was obtained at a peak potential of -0.22 V. The recovery of hydroquinone from two samples ranged from 99.1 to 104.1% and a rectilinear analytical curve for hydroquinone concentration from 7.5x10(-5) to 1.6x10(-3) M (r=0.9991) were obtained. The detection limit was 8.1x10(-6) M and relative standard deviation was <1.0% for a solution containing 7.3x10(-4) M hydroquinone and 1.0x10(-3) M hydrogen peroxide in 0.10 M tetrabutylammonium bromide methanol-phosphate buffer solution (95:5% v/v) (n=10). The results obtained for hydroquinone in cosmetic creams using the proposed biosensor are in close agreement with those obtained using a Pharmacopoeia procedure at the 95% confidence level.

A Gradient Reversed Phase High Performance Liquid Chromatography Method for Simultaneous Determination of Hydrochlorothiazide (HCT) and Losartan Potassium (LOS) from Tablets.

ABSTRACT

A new, precise, accurate gradient reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) method has been developed for the simultaneous determination of Hydrochlorothiazide (HCT) and Losartan potassium (LOS) in tablets. The stationary phase was Microbondapak C18 column (10 μ, 300 mm × 3.9 mm ID). A gradient elution with an aqueous methanolic mobile phase (pH=3) was employed for the separation. Detection was carried out at 270 nm using UV detector. The flow rate was 1.0 ml/min and retention times were 7.89 minutes and 15.15 minutes for HCT and LOS, respectively. The linearity was obtained in the concentration range of 0.5 - 200 μg/ml for HCT and 2 - 800 μg/ml for LOS. Mean percentage recoveries were 100.29% and 99.16% for HCT and LOS, respectively.     

Application of an LC–ESI–QTOF–MS method for evaluating clindamycin concentrations in plasma and prostate microdialysate of rats

Clindamycin is used for infections caused by Gram-positive and Gram-negative anaerobic pathogens and Gram-positive aerobes. Propionibacterium acnes is an important opportunistic microorganism of the human skin and is related to prostatitis. An LC–electrospray ionization–quadrupole time-of-flight–MS method was validated for determining clindamycin concentrations in plasma and prostate microdialysate. Clindamycin separation was carried out on a C₁₈ column at 0.5 mL/min. The mobile phase employed gradient elution of formic acid and methanol. A mass spectrometer was operated in positive electrospray ionization mode to monitor ion 425.1784 and 253.1152 for clindamycin and cimetidine (internal standard), respectively. Linearity was obtained at 0.5–10.0 μg/mL (plasma) and 0.05–1.0 μg/mL (microdialysate) with coefficients of determination ≥0.999. The intra- and inter-day precision (coefficient of variation - CV%) values were ≤13.83% and 12.51% for plasma, respectively, and ≤10.90% and 9.35% for microdialysate, respectively. The accuracy was between 90.82% and 108.25% for plasma, and 96.97% and 106.98% for microdialysate. The present method was fully validated and applied to investigate clindamycin concentrations in both plasma and prostate by microdialysis in Wistar rats (80 mg/kg, intravenous). Because the penetration of antibiotics into the prostate may be restricted, this method allows us to investigate the prostate concentrations of clindamycin for the first time.     

High Pressure Liquid Chromatographic Determination of Parabens in Pharmaceutical Preparations Containing Hydroxyquinolines

Abstract

A high pressure liquid chromatographic (HPLC) procedure for the analysis of methyl paraben (MP) and propyl paraben (PP) in pharmaceutical preparations containing a halogenated hydroxyquinoline (HHQ) is described. The method involves a separation of the phenolic constituents, MP, PP and HHQ with a Bio-Rad AG 1–X8 anion exchange resin, elution of the phenols with methanol after acidification and a reverse phase HPLC separation of the parabens using methanol-pH 6.5 buffer (60/40) mobile phase, a 30 cm × 3.9 mm (i.d.) column packed with Waters μBondapak C₁₈ packing and a guard column packed with Waters Bondapak C₁₈/Corasil packing. Recovery, precision, specificity and interference data along with the application of the proposed method for some commercial formulations both with and without a hydroxyquinoline are described.     

Effect of microwave dielectric heating on intraparticle diffusion in reversed-phase liquid chromatography

The influence of microwave (MW) irradiation on the mass transfer kinetics in reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC) was studied by placing a column in a microwave oven and measuring the incremental change in the temperature of the column effluent stream at various microwave energies and mobile phase compositions. The microwave energy dissipated in the column was set between 15 and 200 W and the mobile phase composition used varied from 100 to 70, 50, and 10% methanol in water at 1.2 mL/min. At all the mobile phase compositions considered, the effluent temperature increased with increasing microwave energy. At 70% methanol, the mobile phase flow rate was set at 1.2, 2.0, and 2.8 mL/min. At 1.2 mL/min, the effluent temperatures at the lowest (15 W) and highest (200 W) microwave energy inputs were 25 +/- 1 degrees C and 41 +/- 1 degrees C for pure methanol, 25 +/- 1 degrees C and 48 +/- 1 degrees C for 70% methanol, 25 +/- 1 degrees C and 50 +/- 1 degrees C for 50% methanol, and, 25 +/- 1 degrees C and 52 +/- 1 degrees C for 10% methanol, respectively. With 70% methanol and microwave energy inputs of 15, 30, and 50 W, the effluent temperature did not change with increasing flow rate; a considerable change was observed at 100, 150, and 200 W between 1.2 and 2.0 mL/min and none between 2.0 and 2.8 mL/min. Chromatographic elution band profiles of propylbenzene were recorded under linear conditions, in 70% methanol solutions, for microwave energy inputs of 0, 15 and 30 W, at constant temperature. The intraparticle diffusion coefficient, De, under microwave irradiation was ca. 20% higher than without irradiation. These preliminary results suggest that microwave irradiation may have a considerable influence on intraparticle diffusion in RPLC.
