Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy can detect certain atomic nuclei that have spin, including the carbon-13 isotope. While carbon-12 does not produce a signal in NMR due to having no spin, carbon-13 accounts for about 1.1% of naturally occurring carbon and can be detected. Carbon-13 has a very weak signal that is difficult to detect due to its low natural abundance and sensitivity being 1/5700 of hydrogen-1. However, the development of Fourier-transform NMR and signal averaging techniques have allowed the detection and analysis of carbon-13 NMR spectra.

This document summarizes research on using commercial chiral anion-exchange LC columns packed with quinidine or quinine ligands to separate enantiomers of acidic drugs and related compounds using hydro-organic mobile phases. Key findings include:
1) Low pH mobile phases provided the best retention and enantioresolution. Selectivity was largely independent of mobile phase variables except at pH >5-6.
2) Enantioseparation was achieved for a range of drug acids including NSAIDs and mandelic acids. However, enantioselectivity was not sufficient to explore achiral-chiral separations in a single column.
3) Retention was very similar across the three columns tested,
Method validation in HPLC of omeprazole enantiomerscoolprashant33
Nilesh Kamble presented a seminar on the development and validation of a method for the enantiomeric estimation of omeprazole enantiomers in enteric-coated formulations using high-performance liquid chromatography. Omeprazole exists as two enantiomers but the S-enantiomer is metabolized more slowly and at lower doses. The method was developed using a chiral column with normal phase chromatography. Validation showed the method was specific, stability-indicating, linear, accurate and suitable for quantifying the undesired enantiomer in formulations. The developed method can help ensure only the desired enantiomer is present in marketed formulations.
The document discusses reversed-phase chromatography columns. It describes how totally porous silica particles are most commonly used due to their greater capacity and variety of options. Pore size is usually related to the molecular weight of compounds, with larger pores needed to separate larger molecules like proteins. Particle properties like surface area and pore size are typically measured using the BET procedure. Column efficiency depends on factors like particle size and type. Superficially porous particles have a narrower size distribution than totally porous particles. The stationary phase is usually made by bonding an organosilane to silica particles. Options can provide increased stability. Selectivity is influenced by solvent strength and type as well as solute properties.
This document discusses various chromatography techniques including high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), fast protein liquid chromatography (FPLC), ultra-performance liquid chromatography (UPLC), and rapid resolution liquid chromatography (RRLC). HPLC uses pumps to pass a pressurized liquid through a column to separate sample components. FPLC is a modified HPLC used for protein separations using aqueous buffers and resins. UPLC uses smaller particle columns (<2μm) than HPLC to improve resolution, speed, and sensitivity. RRLC also uses sub-2μm particles and high flow rates to achieve faster analysis times than HPLC while maintaining resolution.
This study investigated the polymerization of lactic acid as a model for prebiotic peptide formation via ester-amide exchange. Lactic acid was polymerized in a closed system at 85°C over various time points. HPLC and 1H-NMR were used to analyze the polymers and determine degree of polymerization (DP) and total lactic acid units. DP was found to increase with time while total units decreased, showing polymer regeneration. Methods showed consistent results within 10-15% error. Further studies will compare kinetics to a computer simulation to determine rate constants and model polymerization from various monomers.
TLC Separation of Cephalosporins on Stannic Arsenate LayersIOSR Journals
Abstract: The chromatographic behaviour of some cephalosporins has been studied on synthetic stannic arsenate layers using citrate and borate buffers as mobile phases. Several ternary and quaternary separations have been achieved. The utility of these separations has been demonstrated for estimation of cephalosporins in blood serum from patients.This method used is simple, rapid ,reproducible and can also be applied in the separation and determination of cephalosporins in other biological samples. The limit of detection was found to be 0.20 μg/l.
High performance liquid chromatography stationary phases can separate polar and nonpolar compounds using reversed-phase or normal phase columns. Aqueous normal phase chromatography uses silicon-hydride stationary phases to retain both polar and nonpolar analytes in a single isocratic run through dual retention mechanisms. This distinguishes it from other chromatographic methods that can only separate compounds of specific polarities.

A simple and selective LC method is described for the determination of Sulbactum and Ceftriaxone tablet dosage forms. Chromatographic separation was achieved on a C18 column using mobile phase consisting of a mixture of mixture of 60 volumes of 20mM Phosphate buffer pH 3.5: 40 volumes of Acetonitrile (60:40 v/v) with detection of 210 nm. Linearity was observed in the range 30-70 µg /ml for Sulbactum (r2 =0.9998) and 60-140µg /ml for Ceftriaxone (r2 =0.9983) for the amount of drugs estimated by the proposed methods was in good agreement with the label claim. The proposed methods were validated. The accuracy of the methods was assessed by recovery studies at three different levels. Recovery experiments indicated the absence of interference from commonly encountered pharmaceutical additives. The method was found to be precise as indicated by the repeatability analysis, showing %RSD less than 2. All statistical data proves validity of the methods and can be used for routine analysis of pharmaceutical dosage form.

This document presents a kinetic model for the lipase-catalyzed conversion of ascorbic acid and oleic acid to the liposoluble vitamin C ester ascorbyl oleate. Experimental data were fitted to a ping-pong bi-bi kinetic model with substrate inhibition by excess ascorbic acid. Kinetic constants were determined under optimized reaction conditions. The model was then expanded to include terms describing ester hydrolysis, and kinetic constants for the reverse reaction were estimated. The calculated constants revealed that lipase has the highest affinity for ascorbyl oleate and slightly lower activity for ascorbic acid, with the lowest activity for oleic acid.

Introduction
Amoxicillin ((2S,5R,6R)-6-{[(2R)-2-amino-2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-acetyl]amino}-3,3-
dimethyl-7-oxo-4-thia-1azabicyclo[3.2.o]heptane-2-carboxylic acid) belongs to a class of pen-
icillin antibiotics that include also ampicillin, piperacillin, ticarcillin and some others.
Amoxicillin
Amoxicillin is used for a treatment of bacterial infections by gram-positive as well as
by gram-negative bacteria being the drug of choice within the penicillin antibiotics because of
the better absorption after oral administration than other P-lactam antibiotics. The
bioavilability of amoxicillin is not affected by the concomitant food ingestion. It is one of the
most common antibiotics prescribed for children [1].
Amoxicillin is a semi-synthetic penicillin with sales of US $2200 million as a bulk
formulated drug in 1994 [2]. So it not surprising that there is a special Internet site devoted
to amoxicillin - http://www.amoxicillin.com/. It is marketed under many trade names
including: Actimoxi®, Amoxibiotic®, Amoxicilina®, Dispermox®, Isimoxin®, Lamoxy®,
Ospamox®, Pamoxicillin®, Polymox®, Trimox®, Tolodina®, Wymox®, Zerrsox® and
Zimox®.
Amoxicillin is presently the most commonly used antibiotic. Thus reliable quantitative
methods have been developed to quantify the antibiotic by HPLC with direct UV detection at
low wavelengths ^=225-330 nm) [1, 3-9]. The methods proposed are of reversed-phase
mode because of amoxicillin high polarity: chromatographic separation is carried out on the
C18 as well as C8-phases.
The aim of the present investigation was development of a revesed-phase HPLC
method for determination of amoxicillin and assay of amoxicillin in some commercial oral
dosage forms.

Materials and methods
Materials
In the present work were used amoxicillin (Sigma), acetonitrile (HPLC-gradient
grade, Panreac, Spain); distilled water, phosphoric acid (Vecton, RF) and NaOH (REACHIM,
RF) of a reagent grade.
The amoxicillin brands "Acamoxil 500" (Iraq), "Glomox 500" (U.A.E.) and "Cimoxil®-
500" (CHAPHAR, China) were purchased in local pharmacies in Iraq while "Амоксициллин"
(РФ) was purchased in Belgorod.
Instrumentation
HPLC method of amoxicillin determination was performed and amoxicillin concen-
trations were determined by an isocratic high-pressure liquid chromatographic system that
included high pressure pump Beckman 110 B, Rheodyne model 7125 injector with 20 pl sam-
ple loop, 250x4 mm Reprosil-Pur C18-AQ or 250 х 4 mm Reprosil-Pur C8 columns, Nicolet
LC/9563 Variable UV Detector. Detector signal was processed by MultiChrom 1.5 data man-
agement program.
UV-vis spectra were recorded in quartz cuvettes by spectrophotometer SPh-26 (RF).
The acidity of the mobile phase was controlled by pH-meter "pH-150" with a combination
electrode.
Preparation of the standard solution of amoxicillin
Precise mass sample of the amoxicillin standard powder (in region of 9 ^ 11 mg) was
quantitatively transferred into 10 ml volumetric flask; then 4 ^ 6 ml of mobile phase were
added and after the sample dissolution the flask volume was made up by the mobile phase.
The solution was filtered through syringe filters (0.45 pm). The solution was diluted to get
the calibration solutions with desired concentration (0.025 ^ 0.10 mg/ml).
Sample preparation of drug amoxicillin
Some 5-8 tablets of the drug were finely dispersed in a porcelain mortar. Then a precise
mass sample of the powder was quantitatively transferred into 10ml volumetric flask; 4 ^ 6 ml of
mobile phase were added and after the sample dissolution the flask volume was made up by the
mobile phase. Before injection the solution was filtered through syringe filters (0.45 pm).
HPLC procedure
For mobile phase preparation mix 12.5 ml of acetonitrile, 5 ml 0.5 M sodium phos-
phate buffer (pH=5) and some 100-150 ml of distiller water in the 250 cm3 volumetric flask
and make up the volume with distilled water. Then equilibrate the chromatographic system
with 250 х 4 mm Reprosil-Pur C18-AQ with a guard column (effluent monitoring at 228 nm)
before sample injection.
The result of amoxicillin determination calculate as mean value of two sample prepa-
rations for each of them taking the mean value for two injection, using a calibration curve for
amoxicillin concentration calculation.
Results and discussion
Stationary phase choice
Amoxicilline is a highly polar compound thus the reversed-phase mode of HPLC
seems to be the most suitable for the chromatographic determination. Meanwhile there are
some types of reversed-phase stationary phases available differing by the length of the alkyl
radical chemically bound to the silica surface. The most popular are series of trademarks of
octadecyl (ODS ore C18) phases, proposed for amoxicillin determination [1, 3-5, 7,8]. Some
less popular are octyl (C8) phases, though just a Zorbax SB-C8 column was found to be more
suitable (than Zorbax SB-C18) for quantitative determination of amoxicillin in complex mix-
ture with possible degradation products [5].
The background of a stationary phase choice may be proposed by the following way.
The solute retention in HPLC belongs upon some parameters (eq.1).

where k - a capacity factor of the solute i;
nSp(i) and nmp(i) - quantity of solute i in stationary and mobile phases respectively;
N - number of moles of the substances in the phases involved;
Kth(i) - thermodynamic constant of solute i distribution;
П - column phase ratio.
Any two columns at a given mobile phase composition may differ by thermodynamic
constant as well as by column phase ratio. If the columns are chemically equal it means that
they have equal thermodynamic constant of solute distribution between the stationary and
mobile phases. Excluding this constant form two equations for two different columns (A and
B) we can get the equations (2) - (5).

So, the retention times of the solute i for column A vs that for column B should be a
linear function (eq. 4) for some mobile phase compositions of any solvent system. The linear-
ity of the dependence for logarithms of capacity factors with slope closed to one is more con-
venient for the analysis.
If stationary phases under investigation are not chemically equal no linearity will be
found between retention times or equation (5) should be replaced by equation (6) with a
slope deviating from 1.
Ig kA ( / ) = a0+al-1gkB(i). (6)
Experimentally for columns with C8 and C18 stationary phases of Reprosil trademark
a linear relationship for the retention times of amoxicillin were found with intercept closed to
zero. This finding indicates that both phases are chemically equivalent - it means that mech-
anism of retention of amoxicillin is hydrophobic repulsion of the solute onto sorbent surface.
Indeed in this case the length of alkyl radical of chemically modified silica could not influence
upon solute retention.
Chromatographic columns 250x4 mm Reprosil-Pure C8-AQ and Reprosil-Pur C18.
Mobile phases 2.0 ^5.0 vol.% of CH3CN in water phosphoric buffer (0.01 M
NaH2PO4), 1 ml/min.
As the consequence of the fact - C18 stationary phases may be readily replaced by C8
or even C4-phases for the given mobile phase composition. By the way for the two reversed-
phase stationary phases built upon the same silica matrix dead times may be closed then the
intercept of the equation (4) must also be close to zero.
In spite of the findings column with C18 stationary phases has been explored for the
further method development.

Mobile phase choice
The choice of mobile phase composition depends upon some factors.
1. As a highly polar compound amoxicillin (LogPexp = 0.87, for phenol LogPexp = 1.46,
for aniline LogPexp = 0.90) needs only small additions of organic modifier into water based
mobile phase- methanol or acetonitrile (0 - 10 vol.%), fig.2.
The relationship between logarithm of capacity factor of amoxicillin and volume per-
centage of acetonitrile in a mobile phase is rather linear, so the composition of a mobile
phase with the desired amoxicillin retention may be calculated (eq.7).
lgfc(i) = O.678 - 0.122-ф (7)
where ф - volume percentage of acetonitrile in a mobile phase.
A composition, containing 5 vol.% of CH3CN has been chosen for amoxicillin deter-
mination.
Fig.2. Retention of amoxicillin as a function of vol % of CH3CN in mobile phase
Column: 250 х 4 Reprosil-Pur C18-AQ; mobile phase 0.01 M phosphate buffer pH=5
2. Low organic modifier concentration in the mobile phase may course phase collapse
[9] for the ordinary reversed phases. Thus phases sustained in aqueous solutions are prefera-
ble. Stationary phases of Reprosil trademark agree the requirement.

3. Chromatographic determination of amoxicillin as ionisable compound must be per-
formed in buffered mobile phases. The choice of buffering system is determined by UV-
spectrum on the amoxicillin solution enabling a simple and sensitive detection. The UV-
spectrum is presented on fig.3.

In consequence of a shot wavelength of analytically convenient absorption maxima
(Xmax = 228 nm) the buffering system must be transparent at 228 nm. The most suitable buff-
ering system is the phosphate one. But it should be noticed that at a high pH due to carbox-
ylic group dissociation the molecule will have a negative charge, while at the low pH a charge
turns for positive as a consequence of amino-group protonation. The both cases need ion-pair

Method validation
For the developed method of amoxicillin determination taking a result as a mean val-
ue for two replicate injection for two replicate sample preparations the overall relative confi-
dence interval (P = 0.95) is composed of relative confidence intervals (CI) of method repeat-
ability (R), sample preparation (SP), and detector calibration (DC), eq.8.
CIZ = CI I + CI2
SP + ciln = 2.57%DC (8)
Data for three series of six replicates of amoxicillin solution injections indicates a high
repeatability -is no more than 0.93%. CISR for three replicate sample preparations was found
to be 1.71; CIDC (1.68) was estimated for the calibration mode utilizing three different concen-
trations with two replicate injections for each of them. The calibration dependence proved to
be linear with not statistically significant intercept, fig.5.
Fig.5. Calibration dependence for amoxicillin determination
By the way, an ordinary presentation of a calibrating curve as "Peak area" vs "Solute
concentration" is rather strange because namely the reciprocal dependence must be used for
quantitative solute determination.
Drug analysis
The method has been applied for assay of amoxicillin in four trademarks of real drugs.

For the amoxicillin assay in drugs the RP HPLC method may be explored. The sta-
tionary phase must be collapse phase resistant while the length of the alkyl-radical of modi-
fied silica is not critical. The mobile phase for isocratic HLPC assay consists of 5 vol.% of ace-
tonitrile in (0.01 M) water phosphoric buffer (pH=5); the rate of mobile phase 1 ml/min.
Peaks are registered at 228 nm.

Обращенно-фазовая ВЭЖХ была использована для
разработки метода определения амоксициллина в готовых
формах для орального употребления. В работе приводится
пошаговое объяснение и оптимизация условий определения.
Предложенный метод предполагает использование стацио-
нарной фазы Reprosil-Pur C18-AQ и водного фосфатного бу-
фера (pH=5) с добавлением 5% ацетонитрила при УФ-
детектировании (228 nm). Приведены результаты примене-
ния метода для определения амоксициллина в четырех гото-
вых формах.
Ключевые слова: обращенно-фазовая ВЭЖХ, метод
определения, амокситциллин.
