A completely validated method based on HPLC coupled with photodiode array detector (HPLC-UV) was described for evaluating and controlling quality of Yin Chen Hao Tang extract (YCHTE). First, HPLC-UV fingerprint chromatogram of YCHTE was established for preliminarily elucidating amount and chromatographic trajectory of chemical constituents in YCHTE. Second, for the first time, five mainly bioac...

We found, unexpectedly, that the radical form of the carbon-centered quinone ketoxy radical adduct with a recently developed spin-trapping agent BMPO can not only be directly detected and identified using HPLC/high resolution MS, but can also be isolated and purified using semi-preparative HPLC, enabling direct observation of its clean 6-line ESR signal.

A stability-indicating liquid chromatographic (LC) method was developed for the determination of posaconazole in bulk. Chromatographic separation was achieved using an isocratic elution in a reversed-phase system, with a mobile phase composed of methanol-water (75:25, v/v), at 1.0 mL min(-1) flow. Samples were exposed to degradation under thermal, oxidative and acid/basic conditions, and no int...

We explored the temperature-dependent dynamics of the electrochemical oxidation of thiourea under potential-control mode and found complex oscillations with one large peak and one small peak per period. Adjusting the temperature caused the relative amplitudes and positions of the two peaks to vary. Experiments showed that there were two distinct oscillatory regimes as a function of the external...

During the manufacture of bulk drug midazolam various impurities arised that can be the related products or degradation products. Structures of eight impurities that can arise during the manufacture of bulk drug midazolam were proposed. In the present work, synthesis of these impurities and their characterization by different spectroscopic techniques have been done. HPLC method was developed fo...

Stachys lavandulifolia Vahl is an herbaceous wild plant native to Iran which is traditionally used in Iranian folk medicine as a mild sedative tea for reducing anxiety and for treatment of gastrointestinal disorders. Our previous study on ethyl acetate extract of S. lavandulifolia proved anti-anxiolytic activity and so the present study was designed to determine chemical components of this biol...
