a stability indicating high-performance liquid chromatography (hplc) method wasvalidated and used to study the degradation of cetirizine dihydrochloride in acidic and oxidativeconditions. the separation was carried out on a symmetry c18 column and a mixture of 50 mmkh2po4 and acetonitrile (60:40 v/v, ph = 3.5) was used as the mobile phase. the method waslinear over the range of 1-20 μg/ml of ce...

background: cattle can be considered as an important source for herbicides through nutrition. therefore, herbicide residue in animal products is a potential human exposure to herbicides causing public health problems in human life. triazines are a group of herbicides primarily used to control broadleaf weeds in corn and other feed ingredients and are considered as possible human carcinogens. to...

background & aim: according to the increase in diseases such as diabetes and obesity, using of saccharose alternatives for producing of low-calorie and sugar-free alternatives, are taken into consideration of researchers and industrialists. among them, steviosidewith the 300 times more sweetness than saccharose has special place, due to is a natural. the aim of this study is optimizing of stevi...

determination of drug residues in food is of great importance due to their toxicity. long-term exposure with low level of drug residues could be important, especially in children. based on document study, oxytetracycline (otc) is a prophylaxis and treatment agent for great number of diseases and possesses a broad spectrum activity against many pathogenic organisms and can be toxic or cause alle...

this study a novel high performance liquid chromatography for the assay of nystatin in oral and vaginal tablets were optimized and validated using box–behnken experimental design. the method was performed in the isocratic mode on a rp-18 column (30 °c) using a mobile phase consisting of 0.05 m ammonium acetate buffer/ methanol mixture (30:70) and a flow-rate of 1.0 ml/min. the method was valida...

purpose : fluoroquinolones are widely used antibiotic for prophylaxis of intra and postoperative infections in individuals undergoing cataract surgery. this study was designed to assess the penetration of ciprofloxacin into the ocular aqueous humor (topical only versus topical and oral administration). methods : studied population (n=47) consisted of two groups: group one (n=26) and group two (...

background and objectives: furfural (f) and hydroxymethyl furfural (hmf) are cyclic aldehydes, which are formed during the heat processing of foods. these chemical contaminants have received much attention due to their suspected health hazards and heat damage indicators. the aim of the present study was extraction and determination of f and hmf in baby-foods using dispersive liquid-liquid micro...

objective(s) a sensitive liquid chromatographic method for the analysis of clarithromycin- a macrolide antibiotic- in human serum, using pre-column derivatization with 9-fluorenylmethyl chloroformate (fmoc-cl) is described. materials and methods the method involved liquid-liquid extraction of the drug and an internal standard (amantadine) followed by pre-column derivatization of the analytes wi...

5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-hmf) is known as an indicator of quality deterioration in a wide range of foods. the current study covered 70 samples taken from domestically produced foods and drinks available on the iranian markets (including honey, jam, fruit cakes tomato paste, ketchup, syrup, fruit juice, canned fruit, uht milk, instant coffee and jelly powder). hmf levels were determined using ...

the present study was aimed to develop and validate a high performace liquid chromatography method for determination of thiocolchicoside and dexketoprofen trometamol in combined dosage form. the proposed hplc method utilizes an agilent eclipse c-8 column (5 µm, 250×4.6 mm) at ambient temperature. a 23 full factorial design was performed for optimization of mobile phase for separation of two dru...
