Title: Development and validation of HPLC method with fluorometric detection for quantification of bisnaphthalimidopropyldiaminooctane in animal tissues following administration in polymeric nanoparticles
Publisher: Elsevier
Issue Date: 2016
Abstract: A simple, sensitive and specific high-performance liquid chromatography method for the quantification of bisnaphthalimidopropyldiaminooctane (BNIPDaoct), a potent anti-Leishmania compound, incorporated into poly(D,L-lactide-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) nanoparticles was developed and validated toward bioanalysis application. Biological tissue extracts were injected into a reversed-phase monolithic column coupled to a fluorimetric detector (¿ exc =234nm, ¿ em =394nm), using isocratic elution with aqueous buffer (acetic acid/acetate 0.10M, pH 4.5, 0.010M octanesulfonic acid) and acetonitrile, 60:40 (v/v) at a flow rate of 1.5mLmin -1 . The run time was 6min, with a BNIPDaoct retention time of 3.3min.Calibration curves were linear for BNIPDaoct concentrations ranging from 0.002 to 0.100µM. Matrix effects were observed and calibration curves were performed using the different organ (spleen, liver, kidney, heart and lung) extracts. The method was found to be specific, accurate (97.3-106.8% of nominal values) and precise for intra-day (RSD < 1.9%) and inter-day assays (RSD < 7.2%) in all matrices. Stability studies showed that BNIPDaoct was stable in all matrices after standing for 24h at room temperature (20°C) or in the autosampler, and after three freeze-thaw cycles. Mean recoveries of BNIPDaoct spiked in mice organs were < 88.4%. The LOD and LOQ for biological matrices were =0.8 and =1.8nM, respectively, corresponding to values =4 and =9nmolg -1 in mice organs. The method developed was successfully applied to biodistribution assessment following intravenous administration of BNIPDaoct in solution or incorporated in PLGA nanoparticles.
