Micellar high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and first-derivative ultraviolet spectrophotometry were used to simultaneously determine fluconazole (FLZ) and tinidazole (TNZ) in combined pharmaceutical dosage forms. The derivative procedure is based on the linear relationship between the drug concentration and the first derivative amplitudes at 220 and 288 nm for FLZ and TNZ, respective...

Two rapid and simple HPLC methods with UV detector to determine three main compounds (magnoflorine, spinosin and 6'''-feruloyl spinosin) and evaporative light scattering detector (ELSD) to determine jujuboside A were developed for the chemical analyses of Zizyphi Semen. Magnoflorine, spinosin, and 6'''-feruloyl spinosin were separated with an YMC J'sphere ODS-H80 column (250 mm × 4.6 mm, 4 μm) ...

The discovery of brassinolide in 1979, a milestone in brassinosteroids research, has sparked great interest of brassinolide analogs (BLs) in agricultural applications. Among these BLs, propionylbrassinolide has captured considerable attention because it shows plant growth regulating activity with an excellent durability. Two impurities of propionylbrassinolide were isolated and purified by semi...

The presented developed HPLC method and GC method may be used to separate and determine all analyzed 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase inhibitors (statins) and ezetimibe using a single columns and a uniform methodology. In order to perform qualitative and quantitative tests of statins and ezetimibe the Symmetry C18 column 250 mm x 4.6 mm, 5 µm, the mobile phase: acetonitrile:water...

A simple and accurate high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled with diode array detector (DAD) and evaporative light scattering detector (ELSD) was established for the determination of six bioactive compounds in Zhenqi Fuzheng preparation (ZFP). The monitoring wavelengths were 254, 275 and 328 nm. Under the optimum conditions, good separation was achieved, and the assay was fully v...

Studies have shown that hormones endocrine disrupting properties, which characterize them as potentially toxic to the aquatic environment. This study aims monitor water along Prosa Stream/Anhanduí River monthly, evaluate its contamination by 17β-estradiol (E2) and 17α-ethinylestradiol (EE2). Dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (DLLME) was used for analyte extraction, with acetone a dispers...

Instrumental bitterness assessment of traditional Chinese herbal medicine (TCM) preparations was addressed in this study. Three different approaches were evaluated, high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to UV detector (HPLC), capillary electrophoresis coupled to UV detector (CE) and a potentiometric multisensor system - electronic tongue (ET). Most studies involving HPLC and CE separat...

Cholesteryl esters (CE), triacylglycerols (TG), free cholesterol (FC), monoacylglycerols (MG) and phospholipids (PL) were simultaneously determined by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled to a light-scattering detector (ELSD) and in Iberian pig fat from adipose tissue and Masseter muscle. The precision of the HPLC system was excellent, showing RSD values of repeatability lower ...

A simple, rapid, and sensitive HPLC method was developed and validated to quantify Amphotericin B (AmB) in human plasma. AmB was extracted from spiked plasma by simple protein precipitation with methanol. The separation was performed on an XBridgeTM C18 (150 × 4.6 mm, 3.5 μm) column, with a mobile phase of acetic acid (0.73%) – acetonitrile (60:40, v/v) and at a flow rate of 1 mL/min. The elute...

A high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with quadrupole tandem time-of-flight mass (HPLC-QTOF-MS) and ultraviolet spectrometry (HPLC-UV) was established for simultaneous qualitative and quantitative analysis of the major chemical constituents in Caulis Trachelospermi, respectively. The analysis was performed on an Agilent Zorbax Eclipse Plus C18 column (4.6 mm×150 mm, 5 μm) using a bin...
