Objective: A simple, Rapid, and sensitive HPLC method utilizing UV detection was developed and validated for the simultaneous estimation of Fluticasone propionate (FP) and Salmeterol xinafoate (SX) in solutions and in vitro human plasma.
Methods: Chromatographic analysis was done on SUPELCO® RP-C18 column (150 x 4.6 mm, 5 μm particle size) with an isocratic mobile phase composed of methanol, acetonitrile, and water (50:20:30, v/v) mixture while flow rate was set to 1 ml/min. Detection with UV at maximum absorbance wavelength (ʎmax) values of 236 and 252 for FP and SX, respectively. Spiked plasma samples were liquid-liquid extracted by diethyl ether and reconstituted using methanol.
Results: Method was accurate and precise over a linear (R2>0.995) range of (0.067-100 µg/ml) and (0.0333-50 µg/ml) for FP and SX, respectively. LOD/lOQ values were 0.13/0.6 and 0.06/0.3 µg/ml for FP and SX, respectively.
The developed method was successfully applied for the analysis of FP and SX in spiked human plasma samples. The method is considered to be accurate and precise over a linear (R2>0.9969) range of (6.67-66.67 µg/ml) and (3.33-33.3 µg/ml) for FP and SX, respectively. Extraction efficiency was approved by recovery values of (94.98–102.46 %) and (96.54–102.62 %) for FP and SX, respectively.
Conclusion: This validated method revealed simple and cheap extraction procedures and detectors, non-buffered mobile phase, and short retention times with excellent resolution.
