Analysis of Residual Solvents in Co-amoxiclav Coated Tablets Using Solid Phase Microextraction–Gas Chromatography

Analysis of Residual Solvents in Annatto Extracts Using a Static Headspace Gas Chromatography Method

An analytical method for the quantification of residual solvents in annatto extracts, natural food colorants, was established using a static headspace gas chromatography (HSGC) coupled with a flame ionization detector (FID). As a sample diluent in a headspace sampling, dimethylformamide (DMF) was selected owing to its high capacity for dissolving both bixin-based and norbixin-based annatto extr...

Determination of low-level residual ethylene oxide by using solid-phase microextraction and gas chromatography.

Current methods of analysis for ethylene oxide (EO) in medical devices include headspace and simulated-use extractions followed by gas chromatography with either a packed or a capillary column. The quantitation limits are about 0.5-1.0 microg/g for a packed column and about 0.1-0.2 microg/g for a capillary column. The current allowable levels of EO on medical devices sterilized with EO gas as o...

Multiresidue determination of organophosphorus pesticides in corn oil using solid-phase extraction with lanthanum silicate sorbent and gas chromatography

Phosalone, malathion and diazinon were analyzed in corn oil using solid phase extraction (SPE)with lanthanum silicate as a new solid sorbent followed by gas chromatography with nitrogenphosphorus detection (GC-NPD). The efficiency of different eluents (methanol, dichloromethane,ethyl acetate, dichloromethane — ethyl acetate (1:1) and ethyl acetate — methanol (1:1)) werecompared for elution of o...

Effects of Thymol on Co-amoxiclav-Induced Hepatotoxicity in Rats

Background and Aims: Hepatotoxicity induced by Co-amoxiclav has been indicated in multiple studies. Thymol is the main constituent of the Thymus vulgaris essential oil that has antioxidant properties. Even though thymol can exhibit antioxidant activity in vivo models, there is a lack of evidence about the thymol’s effectiveness in drug-induced liver injury. Thus, the present study was conducted...
