Abstract

Bovine serum albumin (BSA) is among the most widely used proteins in protein formulations as well as in the development of novel delivery systems as a typical model for therapeutic/diagnostic proteins and the new versions of vaccines. The development of reliable and easily available assay methods for quantitation of this protein would therefore play a crucial role in these types of studies. A simple gradient reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography with ultra-violet detection (HPLC-UV) method has been developed for quantitation of BSA in dosage forms and protein delivery systems. The method produced linear responses throughout the wide BSA concentration range of 1 to 100 micro g/mL. The average within-run and between-run variations of the method within the linear concentration range of BSA were 2.46% and 2.20%, respectively, with accuracies of 104.49% and 104.58% for within-run and between-run samples, respectively. The limits of detection (LOD) and quantitation (LOQ) of the method were 0.5 and 1 microg/mL, respectively. The method showed acceptable system suitability indices, which enabled us to use it successfully during our particulate vaccine delivery research project.
