CHAPTER 6: SUMMARY AND CONCLUSION
6.1 SUMMARY:
¾ Methods including LC-MS/MS, GC-MS, HPLC, HPTLC, Capillary Electrophoresis,
colorimetric methods were reviewed for the estimation of GBP in biological fluids and
pharmaceutical formulations.
¾ LC-MS/MS method for estimation of GBP in human plasma was developed.
¾ The developed LC-MS/MS method was validated for linearity, accuracy, interday and
intraday precision, matrix effect, dilution integrity, freeze and thaw stability, stock
solution stability, recovery, bench top stability, process stability.
¾ Extractive spectrophotometric methods based on formation of ion pair between GBP and
dyes were developed using BCG and BTB dye.
¾ Dye, pH of buffer, volume of buffer, volume of dye was optimized to get maximum
absorbance of resulting solution.
¾ The developed extractive spectrophotometric methods were validated for linearity, limit
of detection, limit of quantification, recovery (accuracy), reproducibility, interday and
intraday precision.
¾ Finally the developed validated extractive spectrophotometric methods were applied in
pharmaceutical dosage forms including capsule and tablets.
6.2 CONCLUSION:
6.2.1 LC-MS/MS METHOD:
¾ The results of the method validation for GBP indicated that the analytical method was
valid for the analysis of GBP with a calibration range of 0.05 µg/ml to 6.00 µg/ml in
human plasma using LEV as internal standard.
¾ From results of matrix effect, it was concluded that the method can be used for
estimation of GBP in human plasma without any interferences of biological matrix.
6.2.2 EXTRACTIVE SPECTROPHOTOMETRIC METHODS:
¾ During the course of study, it was observed that acidic solution of the drug formed
colored ion-association complexes with BCG and BTB which were soluble in
chloroform. This property of the drug was followed for the development of extractive
spectrophotometric methods for analysis of drug. The complex of GBP with BCG and
