Abstract

Aim: A new, accurate and sensitive reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) as an analytical method for the quantitative determination of eight antifungal drugs in spiked human plasma has been described optimized and validated.

Materials and Methods: The analyzed compounds were voriconazole (VOR), luliconazole (LUL), clotrimazole (CLO), tioconazole (TIO), posaconazole (POS), ketoconazole (KET), sertaconazole (SER) and terconazole (TER).

Results: The separation of the analyzed compounds was conducted using a novel pentabromobenzyl column known as COSMOSIL PBB-R (150 mm × 4.6 mm I.D., particle size 5 μm). The analysis of the studied drugs was determined within 14 min using a diode array detector and the mobile phase consisted of: 10 mM potassium dihydrogen phosphate buffer (pH 2.1): Methanol (2: 98 v/v). A linear response was observed for all compounds in the range of concentration studied. Sample preparation was done through liquid-liquid extraction using diethyl ether.

Conclusion: This proposed method was validated in terms of linearity, limit of quantification, limit of detection, accuracy, precision and selectivity. The method was successfully applied for the determination of these drugs in their pharmaceutical formulations and in human plasma samples.

Keywords: HPLC, pentabromobenzyl column, antifungal drugs, pharmaceutical analysis, biomedical analysis, liquid chromatography.
