Abstract

In the given study, a new reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) method has been reported for the simultaneous estimation of ciprofloxacin hydrochloride (CPX) and rutin (RUT) using quality by design (QbD) approach. The analysis was carried out by applying the Box–Behnken design having fewer design points and less experimental runs. It relates between factors and responses and gives statistically significant values, along with enhancing the quality of the analysis. CPX and RUT were separated on the Kromasil C18 column (4.6 × 150 mm, 5 μm) using an isocratic mobile phase combination of phosphoric acid buffer (pH 3.0) and acetonitrile with the ratio of 87:13% v/v at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. CPX and RUT were detected at their respective wavelengths of 278 and 368 nm using a photodiode array detector. The developed method was validated according to guideline ICH Q2 R (1). The validation parameters taken were linearity, system suitability, accuracy, precision, robustness, sensitivity, and solution stability which were in the acceptable range. The findings suggest that the developed RP-HPLC method can be successfully applied to analyze novel CPX-RUT-loaded bilosomal nanoformulation prepared by thin-film hydration technique.
