Abstract
The automation of a high-performance liquid chromatographic column switching technique for the on-line clean-up and analysis of drug substances in topical cream formulations is described. A short reversed-phase precolumn used for primary sample clean-up was coupled to a reversed-phase analytical column. This allowed cream samples dissolved in methanol—tetrahydrofuran to be injected directly into the analysis system without prior laborious and time-consuming clean-up procedures. This application was successfully extended to the analysis of sulconazole nitrate, and a triple corticoid cream. The effects of precolumns on some chromatographic parameters were studied.
