    An anti-diabetic formulation consisting of vildagliptin and remogliflozin was prescribed for better glycemic control. In the present study a simple, rapid derivative spectrophotometric methods were evolved to analyze these two analytes from the formulations. Methods: Two processed UV spectrophotometric methods were established by measuring the peak amplitude at zero-crossing of second derivative spectra of analytes. The second procedure comprehends the generation of zero - order spectra from the mixture of analyte spectra by division and multiplication by the pure analyte spectra to remove the effect of one of the analytes. Results: Both methods showed linearity concentrations in the range of 2-75 µg/ml for RGF and 2-50 µg/ml for VGT. The low LOD and LOQ found for RGF and VGT by both methods indicated the good sensitivity of the methods. The mean percentage recovery was 98.60 % and 100.78%, for RGF and 98.81 % and 99.15 % for VGT, with low percent relative error. The % RSD for intra and inter-day precision was less than ±2%. Finally, the planned methods were employed for the assay of the VGT and RGF from the medicine and the outcomes were matched with the reported methods. Conclusion: The assay results of the formulation were in agreement with the concentration of labeled amount and no significant difference was observed in the results when compared to the reported method. Hence, the anticipated procedures could be applied for the routine quality control of formulations consisting of VGT and RGF.

    Experimental design approach for quantitative expressions of simultaneous quantification of two binary formulations containing remogliflozin and gliptins by RP-HPLC
    (MDPI AG, 2022) Attimarad, Mahesh; Venugopala, Katharigatta Narayanaswamy; Nair, Anroop Balachandran; Sreeharsha, Nagaraja; Deb, Pran Kishore
    The aim of this study was to develop a fast RP-HPLC method for simultaneous measurement of two antidiabetic formulations (vildagliptin + remogliflozin and teneligliptin + remogliflozin) under identical experimental conditions. Using the Box–Behnken approach and response surface design, the interaction and quadratic influence of three variable parameters, acetonitrile %, pH of the mobile phase, and flow rate, on resolution between the peaks were optimized. To forecast the resolution of peaks (2.7 and 6.5) for the three anti-diabetic medications, the design space with desirability function was used to find the optimal chromatographic conditions. Isocratic elution with 58:42 acetonitrile and phosphate buffer (20 mM KH2PO4, pH adjusted to 4.9 with orthophosphoric acid) over a Zorabx C18 HPLC column with a flow rate of 1.2 mL min−1 separated all three analytes in 2.5 min. In addition, the optimized HPLC process was validated using ICH recommendations. The devised HPLC method’s precision and accuracy were proven by the low percent relative standard deviation (0.60–1.65%), good percentage recovery (98.18–101.50%), and low percentage relative errors (0.20–1.82%). The method’s robustness was also proven by slightly varying the five separate parameters. Finally, the accuracy of the proposed HPLC approach was confirmed using a standard addition method for simultaneous determination of vildagliptin + remogliflozin and teneligliptin + remogliflozin from formulations. Furthermore, the findings demonstrated that experimental design can be successfully used to optimize chromatographic conditions with fewer runs. The devised HPLC method for simultaneous quantification of two binary combinations utilizing the same chromatographic conditions is fast, accurate, precise, and easy, and it might be utilized in laboratories for routine quality control investigations on both formulations.
