1.4.2 Validation parameters

Typical analytical parameters used in validation include:

❖ Specificity

❖ Precision

❖ Accuracy

❖ Linearity

❖ Range

❖ Robustness

❖ Limit of detection

❖ Limit of quantification

Volume XII, Issue IX, September/2020 Page No:1708 The International journal of analytical and experimental modal analysis ISSN NO:0886-9367

❖ 1.4.2.1 Specificity

❖ It is an ability to assess unequivocally the analyte in the presence of components

which may be expected to be present. Typically these might include impurities, degradants, matrix, etc.

❖ 1.4.2.2 Precision

❖ A Precision may be considered at three levels: repeatability, intermediate precision,

and reproducibility.

❖ Precision should be investigated using homogeneous, authentic samples. However, if

it is not possible to obtain a homogeneous sample it may be investigated using artificially prepared samples or a sample solution.

❖ The precision of an analytical procedure is usually expressed as the variance, standard

deviation, or coefficient of variation of a series of measurements.

❖ Repeatability

❖ Repeatability expresses the precision under the same operating conditions over a short

interval of time. Repeatability is also termed intra-assay precision.

❖ Intermediate precision

❖ Intermediate precision expresses within-laboratories variations: different days,

different analysts, different equipment, etc.

❖ Reproducibility

❖ Reproducibility expresses the precision between laboratories (collaborative studies,

usually applied to the standardization of methodology).

❖ 1.4.2.3 Accuracy

❖ The accuracy of an analytical procedure expresses the closeness of agreement

between the value which is accepted either as a conventional true value or an accepted reference value and the value found. This is sometimes termed trueness.

Volume XII, Issue IX, September/2020 Page No:1709 The International journal of analytical and experimental modal analysis ISSN NO:0886-9367

❖ 1.4.2.4 Detection limit

❖ The detection limit of an individual analytical procedure is the lowest amount of

analyte in a sample which can be detected but not necessarily quantitated as an exact value.

❖ Several approaches for determining the detection limit are possible, depending on

whether the procedure is a non-instrumental or instrumental. Approaches other than those listed below may be acceptable.

❖ Based on Visual Evaluation

❖ A visual evaluation may be used for non-instrumental methods but may also be used

with instrumental methods.

❖ The detection limit is determined by the analysis of samples with known

concentrations of analyte and by establishing the minimum level at which the analyte can be reliably detected.

❖ Based on Signal-to-Noise

❖ This approach can only be applied to analytical procedures that exhibit baseline noise.

❖ Determination of the signal-to-noise ratio is performed by comparing measured

signals from samples with known low concentrations of analyte with those of blank samples and establishing the minimum concentration at which the analyte can be reliably detected. A signal-to-noise ratio between 3 or 2:1 is generally considered acceptable for estimating the detection limit.

❖ Based on the Standard Deviation of the Response and the Slope

❖ The detection limit (DL) may be expressed as:

❖ DL = 3.3 σ / S

❖ where σ = the standard deviation of the response S = the slope of the calibration curve

❖ The slope S may be estimated from the calibration curve of the analyte. The estimate

of σ may be carried out in a variety of ways, for example:

❖ Based on the Standard Deviation of the Blank

Volume XII, Issue IX, September/2020 Page No:1710 The International journal of analytical and experimental modal analysis ISSN NO:0886-9367

❖ Measurement of the magnitude of analytical background response is performed by

analyzing an appropriate number of blank samples and calculating the standard deviation of these responses.

❖ Based on the Calibration Curve

❖ A specific calibration curve should be studied using samples containing an analyte in

the range of DL. The residual standard deviation of a regression line or the standard deviation of y-intercepts of regression lines may be used as the standard deviation.

❖ 1.4.2.5 Quantitation limit

❖ The quantitation limit of an individual analytical procedure is the lowest amount of

analyte in a sample which can be quantitatively determined with suitable precision and accuracy. The quantitation limit is a parameter of quantitative assays for low levels of compounds in sample matrices and is used particularly for the determination of impurities and/or degradation products.

❖ 1.4.2.6 Linearity

❖ The linearity of an analytical procedure is its ability (within a given range) to obtain

test results which are directly proportional to the concentration (amount) of analyte in the sample.

❖ Linearity should be evaluated by visual inspection of a plot of signals as a function of

analyte concentration or content. If there is a linear relationship, test results should be evaluated by appropriate statistical methods, for example, by calculation of a regression line by the method of least squares. In some cases, to obtain linearity between assays and sample concentrations, the test data may need to be subjected to a mathematical transformation before the regression analysis. Data from the regression line itself may be helpful to provide mathematical estimates of the degree of linearity. The correlation coefficient, y-intercept, slope of the regression line, and residual sum of squares should be submitted. A plot of the data should be included.

❖ Also, an analysis of the deviation of the actual data points from the regression line

may help evaluate linearity. Some analytical procedures, such as immunoassays, do not demonstrate linearity after any transformation. In this case, the analytical response

Volume XII, Issue IX, September/2020 Page No:1711 The International journal of analytical and experimental modal analysis ISSN NO:0886-9367

should be described by an appropriate function of the concentration (amount) of an analyte in a sample.

❖ For the establishment of linearity, a minimum of 5 concentrations is recommended.

Other approaches should be justified.

❖ 1.4.2.7 Range

❖ The range of an analytical procedure is the interval between the upper and lower

concentration (amounts) of analyte in the sample (including these concentrations) for which it has been demonstrated that the analytical procedure has a suitable level of precision, accuracy, and linearity.

❖ 1.4.2.8 Robustness

❖ When a method is deliberately deviated by a small amount the robustness of the

method is a measure of its capacity to remain unaffected and gives the reliability during normal usage.

❖ Method validation is very tedious procedures but it is necessary for the newly

developed method since it shows the quality of data generated and it is directly linked to the quality of the procedure. Time constraints often do not allow for sufficient

Introduction To Trazodone Hydrochloride:

Introduction: Trazodone hydrochloride is a hydrochloride salt prepared from equimolar amounts of trazodone and hydrogen chloride. It has a role as a uptake inhibitor, a ​ ​ ​ ​ H1- antagonist, an antagonist, a sedative and an . contains a trazodone. Trazodone Hydrochloride is the hydrochloride salt form of trazodone, a ​ ​ ​ ​ synthetic triazolopyridine derivative with antidepressant and sedative properties. Based on studies from animal models, trazodone selectively inhibits the re-uptake of serotonin by ​ ​ synaptosomes in the brain, thereby increasing serotonin levels in the synaptic cleft and ​ potentiating serotonin activity. Trazodone is not a monoamine oxidase inhibitor and, unlike ​ ​ -type drugs, does not stimulate the central nervous system. The sedative effect ​ of trazodone is likely via alpha-adrenergic and mild histamine H1 blocking actions. ​ ​

Volume XII, Issue IX, September/2020 Page No:1712 The International journal of analytical and experimental modal analysis ISSN NO:0886-9367

Molecular formula of trazodone hydrochloride is C19H23Cl2N50 molecular weight : 408.3 g/mol. IUPAC NAME 2-[3-[4-(3-chlorophenyl)piperazin-1-yl]propyl]-[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]pyridin-3-one;hydrochlo ride .

1.1 STRUCTURE OF TRAZODONE HCL .

Trazodone Hydrochloride (TRZ) is a well-known chemical compound that is used as an antidepressant that belongs to selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SARI). This ​ medication is used to treat depression. It may help to improve your mood, appetite, and ​ ​ energy level as well as decrease and insomnia related to depression. ​ ​ Trazodone is available in the form of 25 mg, 50 mg, 100 mg, 150 mg, and 300 mg ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ tablets for oral ingestion.An extended release formulation at 150 mg and 300 mg as tablets is also available. ​ ​

History

Trazodone was developed in Italy, in the 1960s, by Angelini Research Laboratories as a ​ ​ ​ second-generation antidepressant. It was developed according to the mental pain hypothesis, ​ ​ ​ which was postulated from studying patients and which proposes that major depression is ​ associated with a decreased pain threshold. In sharp contrast to most other available at the time of its development, trazodone showed minimal effects on muscarinic cholinergic receptors. Trazodone was patented and marketed in many countries all over the

Volume XII, Issue IX, September/2020 Page No:1713 The International journal of analytical and experimental modal analysis ISSN NO:0886-9367

world. It was approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 1981 and was the first ​ non- antidepressant approved in the US ​ ​

pharmacodynamics

Trazodone is generally described as acting as a potent serotonin 5-HT2A and α1-adrenergic ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ receptor antagonist, a weak serotonin (SRI), and a weak or ​ ​ ​ ​ histamine H receptor inverse . Its 5-HT receptor antagonism and weak serotonin ​ ​1 ​ ​ ​2A reuptake inhibition form the basis of its common label as a serotonin antagonist and reuptake ​

inhibitor (SARI). Trazodone,​ both itself and via its major active metabolite ​ meta-chlorophenylpiperazine (mCPP), also binds to a variety of other receptors.] It is an ​ ​ antagonist at most or all of the receptors it binds to except the 5-HT receptor, where it acts ​ ​1A ​ as a similarly to and tandospirone but with comparatively greater ​ ​ ​ . Conversely, mCPP is a non-selective agonist of most of the serotonin ​ ​ ​

receptors it binds to. A range of weak affinities (Ki) have been reported for trazodone at the ​ ​ ​

human histamine H1 receptor including 220 nM, 350 nM,500 nM, and 1,100 nM ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​

Pharmacokinetics : Absorption: Trazodone is rapidly absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract after oral ​ administration , with a bioavailability ranging from 63-91% and an AUCO-t of 8193.0 ng.h/ML . Food may impact absorption in avariable fashion ,and may sometimes lead to decreases in the Cmax of trazodone.

1.3 Society and culture Generic names

Trazodone is the generic name of the drug and its INN, BAN, and DCF, while trazodone ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ hydrochloride is its USAN, USP, BANM, and JAN. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​

Volume XII, Issue IX, September/2020 Page No:1714 The International journal of analytical and experimental modal analysis ISSN NO:0886-9367

Brand names

Trazodone has been marketed under a large number of brand names throughout the world. Major brand names include Desyrel (worldwide), Donaren (Brazil), Molipaxin (Ireland, United Kingdom), Oleptro (United States), Trazorel (Canada), and Trittico (worldwide).

In 2019, the global Trazodone Hydrochloride (API) market size is anticipated to rise at a considerable rate during the forecast period, between 2020 and 2026.

LINEARITY:

The linearity of an analytical procedure is its ability (within a given range) to obtain test results which are directly proportional to the concentration (amount) of analyte in the sample.

Linearity should be evaluated by visual inspection of a plot of signals as a function of analyte concentration or content. If there is a linear relationship, test results should be evaluated by appropriate statistical methods, for example, by calculation of a regression line by the method of least squares. In some cases, to obtain linearity between assays and sample concentrations, the test data may need to be subjected to a mathematical transformation before the regression analysis. Data from the regression line itself may be helpful to provide mathematical estimates of the degree of linearity. The correlation coefficient, y-intercept, slope of the regression line, and residual sum of squares should be submitted. A plot of the data should be included.

Linearity of the method was evaluated by injecting series of standard concentrations of TRAZADON HCL to fitting chromatographic conditions. The study was performed in duplicate for each standard concentration tested by RP-HPLC method. Standard concentrations of TRAZADON HCL were measured in duplicate and mean peak area ​ analogous to each concentration was integrated. Table 1.1 showed the acquired mean peak ​ ​ area equivalent to strength

CONCLUSION : system precision was determined on two different days with ​ indistinguishable samples of two quality control standards. From the predetermined calibration range two QC standards were defined viz. 7 and 17ppm correspondingly. The solutions for QC standards were prepared by diluting main stock standard solution of 0.7 and 1.7ml up to 10ml with mobile phase.

ROBUSTNESS : • When a method is deliberately deviated by a small amount the robustness of the method is a measure of its capacity to remain unaffected and gives the reliability

during normal usage.

• The robustness of planned method was obtained by analysis of sample from homogenous sets by differing physical parameters like change in flow rate and wavelength which may differ, but the responses were still within the limits of the assay.

The presented project work was planned to develop simple, accurate, precise, and cost effective RP-HPLC method for quantification of TRAZODON HCL by ASSAY METHOD ​ ​ in bulk as API and to explore its applicability for marketed formulation. The method as per predefined objectives was successfully developed and validated.

At the beginning, procured reagents and chemicals were characterized for its transparency by determination of melting point and absorption maximum. This was particularly done for API TRAZODON HCL. The RP-HPLC method was executed for setting up chromatographic ​ conditions like organic concentration of the mobile phase, flow rate, aqueous phase and its pH, column oven temperature, injection volume etc. The optimized and final conditions were set as mobile phase composition, flow rate, wavelength, injection volume and temperature as Buffer 65: Acetonitrile 35 at, 1.0ml/min, 248nm and 10μl.

Further system suitability testing was performed in order ascertain the qualifying criterion of the method. The observed results in terms of percent RSD for mean peak area (0.59) and mean retention time (0.24) for this experiment were observed in conformity as per ICH guideline Q2R1.

Moreover, the projected method was validated as per ICH guideline Q2R1 for consequent parameters to confirm the appearance of the process throughout program investigation of TRAZODON HCL in product life cycle. ​ a) Linearity b) Precision c) Accuracy d) Robustness e) Assay The linearity of the method was observed in the standard concentration range of 05 to 30ppm with correlation coefficient of 0.9997. The equation of line was calculated to find out slope and intercept of regression line.

The method was assessed for interchangeable presentation on numerous measurements. The precision of the method was studied by repeatability and intermediate precision experiment. The outcomes attained depicted that the method achieved outstanding results in terms of %RSD. Also correlation coefficients observed on frequent injections of all quality control standards were seen inside acquiescence criterion as per ICH Q2R1 guidelines.

Robustness of the method was evaluated by examining the outcome of persistent alterations in method conditions.

The applicability of the method was explored in finished product marketed formulation (Tablet dosage form). The %recovery experiment carried out at three levels viz. 80%, 100% and 120% was in agreement with the principles prearranged for TRAZODON HCL. ​ ​ As a result, eventually it was accomplished that, the author attained all predefined objectives by conquering development and validation of ASSAY METHOD by RP HPLC method for ​ quantification of TRAZODON HCL. Besides, the method was successfully tested for its ​ ​ applicability for custom analysis of TRAZODON HCL in tablet dosage form. The method ​ was also proved explicit for estimation of TRAZODON HCL in sample matrix of tablet ​ dosage form (marketed formulation).
