Azithromycin as a new chiral selector in capillary electrophoresis.
    Journal of chromatography. A, 2011, Mar-04, Volume: 1218, Issue:9

    In capillary electrophoresis (CE), separation of enantiomers of a chiral compound can be achieved through the chiral interactions and/or complex formation between the chiral selector and the enantiomeric analytes on leaving their diastereomeric forms with different stability constants and hence different mobilities. A great number of chiral selectors have been employed in CE and among them macrocyclic antibiotics exhibited excellent enantioselective properties towards a wide number of racemic compounds. The use of azithromycin (AZM) as a chiral selector has not been reported previously. This work reports the use of AZM as a chiral selector for the enantiomeric separations of five chiral drugs and one amino acid (tryptophan) in CE. The enantioseparation is carried out using polar organic mixtures of acetonitrile (ACN), methanol (MeOH), acetic acid and triethylamine as run buffer. The influences of the chiral selector concentration, ACN/MeOH ratio, applied voltage and capillary temperature on enantioseparation are investigated. The results show that AZM is a viable chiral selector in CE for the enantioseparation of the type of chiral drugs investigated.

Sensitive liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry assay for the quantification of azithromycin in human plasma.
    Biomedical chromatography : BMC, 2007, Volume: 21, Issue:12

    A simple, rapid, sensitive and specific liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization mass spectrometry method was developed and validated to quantify azithromycin in human plasma, using erythromycin as the internal standard (IS). A simple sample preparation method of protein precipitation with methanol was employed. Methanol, acetonitrile and water (12:30:58, v/v/v) were used as the isocratic mobile phase, with 0.1% formic acid and 0.1% ammonium acetate in water. Selected ion monitoring was specific for azithromycin and erythromycin. The assay was linear over the concentration range 4.69-600 ng/mL. The correlation coefficients for the calibration curves ranged from 0.9994 to 0.9998. The intra- and inter-day precisions, calculated from quality control samples, were less than 8.24%. The method was employed in a pharmacokinetic study after oral administration of 500 mg azithromycin dispersible tablet to 20 healthy volunteers.
