Abstract
Tranexamic acid is a synthetic lysine derivative with antifibrinolytic properties. Precolumn chemical derivatization constitutes an effective technique to enhance its poor detectability. The aim of the present communication is the use of 4,7-phenanthroline-5,6-dione1-3 as labelling reagent for tranexamic acid HPLC analysis by fluorescence and UV-DAD detection. The optimized derivatization reaction was carried out at 68°C for 30 min in presence of phosphate buffer (pH 8) yielding to a highly fluorescent adduct. The chromatographic separations were performed on a Prodigy 5ODS or a Luna Phenyl-Hexyl column according to the fluorimetric or UV-DAD method. The analyses were carried out under isocratic elution conditions using as mobile phase a mixture of triethylammonium phosphate buffer (pH 3)/methanol. The proposed methods were validated and successfully applied to the analysis of pharmaceuticals. The assay results of both methods were statistically compared by means of the Student’s t-test and the variance F-test; no statistically difference was found. 1. Gioia, M.
