Popis: A chiral analytical methodology was developed by nano-liquid chromatography (nano-LC) enabling the enantiomeric separation of two chiral drugs, lacosamide (novel antiepileptic drug) and colchicine (antiuremic drug), commercialized as pure enantiomers. A capillary column lab-packed with an amylose tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate) chiral stationary phase was used in a lab-assembled nano-LC system. Lacosamide and colchicine enantiomers were separated in less than 8.0 and 9.0 min, respectively, with resolution values of 1.6 and 2.3, using 20 nL of sample and 1.8 µ
L of mobile phase per analysis. The analytical characteristics of the proposed methodology were evaluated according to the International Council for Harmonisation (ICH) guidelines, showing good analytical performance with good recoveries (97&ndash
98% and 100&ndash
103%) and precision values (relative standard deviation (RSD) <
10.5 and <
3.0%) for lacosamide and colchicine enantiomers, respectively. LODs were 1.7 and 2.0 µ
g/mL for (S)- and (R)-lacosamide, respectively, and 1.0 µ
g/mL for both colchicine enantiomers. Additionally, the developed methodology enabled to detect a 0.1% of the enantiomeric impurities, fulfilling the ICH regulation requirements. The method was applied to the determination of lacosamide and colchicine enantiomers in different pharmaceutical formulations to ensure their quality control. The content of the enantiomeric impurities was below a 0.1% and the amount of (R)-lacosamide and (S)-colchicine agreed with their labeled contents.
