Validated method for the determination of Gemifloxacin in bulk, pharmaceutical formulations and human serum by RP-HPLC: in vitro applications

An isocratic reversed phase high-performance liquid chromatographic (RP-HPLC) method has been developed for the determination of gemifloxacin in bulk, dosage formulations and human serum at 270 nm. Chromatographic separation was achieved on Purospher STAR C18 (250 × 4.6 mm, 5 µm) column using mobile phase methanol:water (90:10, v/v) adjusted pH 2.8 via phosphoric acid 85% having flow rate of 1.5 mL min-1 at ambient temperature. Calibration curves were linear over range of 5-100 µg mL-1 with a correlation coefficient 0.9998. The limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantitation (LOQ) were 0.015 and 0.045 µg mL-1, respectively. Intra and inter-run precision and accuracy results were 98.73-100.12% and then correlated through student'st-test. This method was further applied for in vitro interactions of gemifloxacin with essential and trace elements.
