Quantification by HPLCUV method
• System suitability checked by ensuring minimum resolution and relative retention times against artenimol.
• Use peak area from reference artemisinin sample to calculate relative purity of test sample and also of “related substances.”

• Method relies on products formed by chemical reaction – complete reaction?
More reliable methods now available
• Very sensitive to reaction conditions • Dependent upon experimental skill

TLCDensitometer by CAMAG
• Mixture applied to TLC plate and developed• Plate sprayed with reagent and heated• ART produces coloured spots and measured with densitometer

TLCdensitometer method
• Simple and economical method• Amenable to high throughput• Widely used
• Overestimation of ART reported• Need for proper validation with reference samples
However

Additional comments
HPLCELSD <3% • RSD can be less than ± 2%• Intraday precision needs to be monitored• Careful control of operating parameters necessary
TLCDensitometer ? • Transformation yield <85%• Major advantage of high throughput
HPLCUV 2% • Poor sensitivity but good for ART crystals• Not acceptable for extracts
HPLCMSMS <2% • 0.42.4ng mL1 has been reported
HPLCRI 6% • Low sensitivity potential impact on HPLC separation
TLCFID[Iatroscan]
8% • Separation of compounds questionable

Several factors influence choice of analytical technique
Examples:• HPLCUV for analysis of crystalline ART• ELSD and TLCdensitometer for extracts• HPLCMSMS for standardising protocols

Summary
• Separation of minor interfering impurities cannot be guaranteed by current Monograph HPLCUV method.
• Potential for improving current methods has been demonstrated.
• New methods (e.g LCMSMS) should be considered for inclusion.
• Need to:– reconsider choice of internal reference standards– identify interfering compounds and their effect on
quantification of ART– ensure availability of reference standards
