Development and Validation of RP-HPLC Method for estimation of Ornidazole in Ornidazole injection 5mg/mL

B.Sucharitha, V. Anuradha

A new, simple, rapid, selective, precise and accurate isocratic reverse phase high performance liquid Chromatography assay method has been developed for estimation of Ornidazole in injection formulations. The separation was achieved by using column Inertsil ODS-3V (150×4.6 mm, 5µ), in mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile and pH 3.0 phosphate buffer, adjusted to pH 3.0 with the help of dilute orthophosphoric acid in the ratio of (10:90, v/v). The flow rate was 2.0 mL/min-1 and the separated Ornidazole was detected using UV detector at the wavelength of 300 nm. Column temperature 25°C and sample temperature ambient and injection volume 20µL. The retention time of Ornidazole, was noted to be 12.05 min respectively. The method was validated as per ICH guidelines. The proposed method was found to be accurate, reproducible, and consistent.

Isolation Of Mucilage From Various Plant Sources and Compare Their Disintegrant Action In Tablet Formulation

Gitika Dhingra, Nidhi Kamble, Bhagyashree Gaikwad, Jui Kamerkar, Pranali Khedkar, Tejasvi Madhavi

The aim of the current study was to isolate mucilage from five different plants, which was done by maceration, followed by incorporating the extracted mucilage into a tablet formulation and to study its disintegrant property. Comparative results were obtained and varying degree of disintegrant action was observed among the five subject plant sources. It was found that Lepidum sativum seeds showed the highest yield of 12.5%w/w as compared to the remaining four plant products. Additionally, the disintegration time of tablets formulated from mucilage obtained from Lepidum sativum was found to be the least and the tablets disintegrated in 25 seconds. Mucilages are very hydrophilic and are capable of trapping water in their cage-like structures to form a gel. Consequently, when mucilage is mixed with water it swells to many times its original volume as it absorbs water1. Mucilages find applications in numerous pharmaceutical preparations and perform their role as disintegrants, sustained-release agents, binders, mucoadhesives, to name a few2.

Phytochemical Study and Evaluation of Antioxidant Power of Selective Tannic Extracts of Three Medicinal Plants of Ivorian Flora

Guy Roger Mida Kabran, Modeste Bosson Tano, Janat Akhanovna Mamyrbékova-Békro, Yves-Alain Békro

This work is devoted to phytochemical study of tannic extracts from the leaves of Combretum paniculatum (CP), Mallotus oppositifolius (MO) and Ximenia americana (XA), three medicinal plants of Ivorian flora, used in traditional medicine against certain types of cancer. Qualitative analysis by phytochemical screening of these extracts, performed by means of TLC, revealed in addition to hydrolysable and condensed tannins, the presence of phenolic acids and flavonoids. Total tannin contents determined by permanganometry and spectrophotometry are respectively 41.03 ± 0.77% and 12.3648 ± 0.0004% for MO; 20.03 ± 0.44% and 11.7974 ± 0.0001% for XA; 18.76 ± 0.89% and 11.6026 ± 0.0008% for CP. Condensed tannin content in XA leaves (234.135 ± 0.003 µg ECT/mg) is considerably higher than in CP (37.731 ± 0.001 µg ECT/mg) and MO (19.082 ± 0.001 µg ECT/mg). All XA extracts (aqueous and ethyl acetate) have shown good antioxidant activity with CR50s which are lower than that of vitamin C (reference antioxidant). A correlative relationship was found between tannin content and antioxidant activity.

Method Development and Validation for the Simultaneous Estimation of Pregabalin and Methylcobalamin In Bulk and Tablet Dosage Form Using UV-Spectrophotometry

P. Muthuswamy, K. Umaa, S. Ravichandran

To method develop and validate simple, rapid, cost effective, linear, accurate, precise and economical for the simultaneous estimation of Pregabalin and Methylcobalamin in bulk and tablet dosage form by using UV-Spectrophotometry. The drug obeyed the Beer’s law and showed good correlation of concentration with absorption which reflect in linearity. The UV-Spectroscopic method was developed for estimation of Pregabalin and Methylcobalamin in bulk and tablet dosage form and also validated as per ICH guidelines. The method based on measurement of absorbance at two wavelengths 222 nm (λmax of Pregabalin) and 219 nm (λmax of Methylcobalamin) in Ethanol and distilled water. Linearity graph of Pregabalin and Methylcobalamin were found to be linear in the concentration ranges of 30-150 μg/ml and 0.6-3 μg/ml, respectively, with their correlation coefficient values (R2) 0.999. The low %RSD values indicate method to be accurate and precise. The % recovery of tablets found to be in range of 97-102% and other validation parameter were found to be within the limits as per ICH guidelines.

Evaluation Radical Scavenging Activity of Punica grantum and Citrus plant Waste Peel Hydro Alcoholic Extracts from Improved Processing

Shivendra Verma, Abhishek Gupta, Shalini Singh, Shamsul haque

Free radicals are atoms or molecules that have one or more unpaired electrons on its outer orbital, highly reactive, and could damage cell inside human body. Antioxidants are the substances which inhibit oxidation, which have the ability to remove the potentially damaging oxidizing agents in a living organism. Many phytochemicals present in the plants are able to reduce or prevent the oxidative damage to the human cells which can cause even cancer in humans. It is highly vital to know about the antioxidant activities of each plant and the phytocompounds responsible for that. In this study, the DPPH free radical scavenging activity of the extracts of Pomegranate and Citrus (Lemon) is analyzed. And we found Citrus peel extract 2, 2-Diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH) assay activity better on comparing Pomegranate peel extract.
