In this work, a novel environment-friendly stability indicating capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) method has been developed and validated for assaying the aripiprazole (ARP) in tablet dosage form. The separation of ARP from its degradation products and internal standard was achieved using a fused silica capillary column (30.2 cm x 75 μm ID), a background electrolyte containing 6 mmol L−1 ammonium formate buffer (pH 3) with 5% methanol under a potential of 15 kV and detection at 214 nm. The stability indicating ability of the method was investigated by analyzing ARP after being subjected to acidic, alkaline, thermal, photolytic, and oxidative stress conditions, according to ICH guidelines. Design of experiments was used during forced degradation and method optimization. Oxidation was the main degradation pathway among those evaluated. The drug was separated from its oxidative degradation products in less than 4 min. CZE method was linear between 60 – 140 μg mL−1, R2 = 0.9980, precise (intra-day 0.88% and inter-day 1.30%). The average recovery was 100.93 ± 0.77%. This is the first method in the literature for quantification of ARP in the presence of its related degradation products with high separation efficiency, low operation cost and minimum solvent consumption. This method could be helpful in the routine quality control analysis in the pharmaceutical industries with least harmful effect on the environment. CZE is considered an eco-friendly alternative of conventionally HPLC methods.

Abstract
In this work, a novel environment-friendly stability indicating capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) method has been developed and validated for assaying the aripiprazole (ARP) in tablet dosage form. The separation of ARP from its degradation products and internal standard was achieved using a fused silica capillary column (30.2 cm x 75 μm ID), a background electrolyte containing 6 mmol L−1 ammonium formate buffer (pH 3) with 5% methanol under a potential of 15 kV and detection at 214 nm. The stability indicating ability of the method was investigated by analyzing ARP after being subjected to acidic, alkaline, thermal, photolytic, and oxidative stress conditions, according to ICH guidelines. Design of experiments was used during forced degradation and method optimization. Oxidation was the main degradation pathway among those evaluated. The drug was separated from its oxidative degradation products in less than 4 min. CZE method was linear between 60 – 140 μg mL−1, R2 = 0.9980, precise (intra-day 0.88% and inter-day 1.30%). The average recovery was 100.93 ± 0.77%. This is the first method in the literature for quantification of ARP in the presence of its related degradation products with high separation efficiency, low operation cost and minimum solvent consumption. This method could be helpful in the routine quality control analysis in the pharmaceutical industries with least harmful effect on the environment. CZE is considered an eco-friendly alternative of conventionally HPLC methods.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
