Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of pharmaceutical analysis, in particular to an HPLC (high performance liquid chromatography) method for simultaneously determining the contents of indacaterol and glycopyrronium bromide.
Background
Indacaterol maleate is a long-acting β 2-adrenoceptor agonist (LABA) that activates a portion of the intracellular adenosine cyclase, which catalyzes the conversion of Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) to cyclic-3 ', 5' -adenosine monophosphate (cyclic adenosine monophosphate). The increase of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) level causes the relaxation of bronchial smooth muscle, can relax air passages, reduce the release of degranulation and medium of mast cells and basophils, reduce the permeability of capillaries, increase the swinging of airway epithelial cilia, locally play the role of a bronchodilator in the lung and relieve the symptoms of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Glycopyrrolate is an anticholinergic drug, is a long-acting acetylcholine receptor antagonist (LAMA), has 4-fold higher selectivity for human acetylcholine M3 receptor than for M2 receptor, and can specifically bind to and inhibit M3 type acetylcholine receptor distributed in bronchial smooth muscle to dilate airway.
The indacaterol maleate glycopyrronium bromide compound medicine is developed by Nowa and has the trade name of
The Chinese medicine is named as Jiehun, and is marketed in China 4 month and 11 day 2019, and the dosage form is capsule type inhalation powder cloud agent, and each capsule contains indacaterol maleate 110 μ g (as C)

In the process of research and development of medicines, accurate determination and analysis of the content of effective substances and impurities are important conditions for ensuring the quality of medicines. In the compound medicine, the effective components of indacaterol and glycopyrronium are in the microgram grade, in the research of the powder inhalation, the important research on the distribution of fine particles is needed, and when the powder inhalation is analyzed in vitro by equipment, the deposition amount of each part is less and less, so that in the content analysis, the analysis method is required to have enough sensitivity and accuracy. The prior art reports about the content determination of indacaterol and glycopyrronium bromide (Rapid lateral calibration of indacaterol and glycopyrronium bromide in halogenated capsules using a validated stability-indicating monomeric LC method, Zayed and Bell Chemistry Central Journal, 2017, 11:36), and an ultra-high performance liquid chromatograph is required to be used for quantification by using an internal standard tenoxicam, and the sensitivities are respectively 0.16 μ g/mL and 0.34 μ g/mL, the operation is complicated, the requirement on operators is high, and the quantification limit cannot meet the research and development requirements. Further, it is reported that the limits of quantitation measured in the literature (RP-HPLC-DAD method for the quantitative determination of individual and physiological in the Pharmaceutical formulation, World Journal of Pharmaceutical and Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2018, Volume 7, Issue 3,166-176) are 0.5. mu.g/mL and 0.1. mu.g/mL, respectively, and thus the requirement of the fine particle distribution test cannot be satisfied. There are also references (HPLC Determination of Industrial hydroxide in Pharmaceutical Preparations and Fluorescence Determination, International Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences and Research 2015, Volume 6, No 11) which use two detectors-UV detector and Fluorescence detector for measurement, and the operation is complicated, the equipment requirement is high, and the Detection cost is high.
Therefore, it is urgently needed to develop a high performance liquid chromatography analysis method with simple operation, strong versatility and high sensitivity to simultaneously determine the content of indacaterol maleate and glycopyrronium bromide in the compound preparation.
