This study evaluated the stability of anthocyanins in six blueberry products (gummy, graham bar, oatmeal bar, rice krispy bar, ice pop and juice) prepared with freeze-dried wild blueberry powder during processing and over eight weeks storage. Total anthocyanins were determined by HPLC before processing and at day 0 and 2, 4, 6, and 8 weeks of storage. Thermal processing of gummy and graham bar products resulted in losses of anthocyanins (50 and 31%, respectively). An eight-week storage time also resulted in a decrease in anthocyanins (7 to 51%) in products stored at ambient temperature. The ice pop, which was stored …

A fast and easy method was validated for simultaneous determination of ciprofloxacin hydrochloride monohydrate (CP), levofloxacin hemihydrate (LV), and N-acetylcysteine (NAC) in samples. The analysis was performed on a C$_{18}$ column (250 x 4.6 mm, 5 μm) (Inertsil ODS-3V) using an isocratic elution method with a mobile phase composed of 25 mM KH$_{2}$PO$_{4}$ (pH 3.0) and methanol (72:28, v/v) at a flow rate of 1 mL/min. UV detection was performed at 214 nm for NAC and 293 nm for CP and LV. The method was validated for linearity, accuracy, precision (repeatability and reproducibility), specificity, sensitivity, and stability. The calibration study …

Combined therapy for HIV treatment shows superior efficacy in comparison to single therapy. Furthermore, the separation and determination of the combined dosage forms hold a significant place in the pharmaceutical industry. Not only reverse phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) but also hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) can be used for these purposes. Contrary to conventional RP systems, HILIC may be an alternative for the analysis of polar substances. The aim of this study was the step-by-step development of a simple, rapid, and reliable method for the simultaneous determination of antiviral compounds from their marketed formulation (Trizivir). In order to achieve …
