Abstract
In this work, a simple colorimetric method based on the gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) using its localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) was proposed for the simultaneous determination of tamsulosin (TAM) and dutasteride (DTS) in pharmaceutical formulation. The aggregation of citrate-capped AuNPs was observed in the presence of TAM and DTS, which led to a change in color from red to gray. Also, the absorbance was shifted from 524 to 674 nm. The formation and size of synthesized AuNPs before and after aggregation were evaluated by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and dynamic light scattering (DLS), which were found to be 11.49 and 122.1 nm, respectively. The colorimetric method was validated in the concentration range of 50–200 μg/L, where it revealed good linearity (R2 = 0.9958 for TAM and R2 = 0.9912 for DTS). The limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantitation (LOQ) were found to be 21.08, 21.82 μg/L and 63.90, 66.12 μg/L for TAM and DTS, respectively. Radial basis function neural network (RBF-NN) and fuzzy inference system (FIS) were coupled with this approach for the simultaneous estimation of both components. The mean recovery percentage of the RBF model was higher than 99.99% for both components, as well as root mean square error (RMSE) values were 3.69 × 10−13 and 1.75 × 10−13 for TAM and DTS, respectively. In the FIS model, the mean recovery was 99.15% and 101.76% for TAM and DTS, respectively, while RMSE was lower than 3.2. These methods were compared with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) through an analysis of variance (ANOVA) test. This colorimetric method can be an appropriate choice for the determination of drug contents in pharmaceutical and biological samples.
期刊介绍:
The objective of the Journal of Nanoparticle Research is to disseminate knowledge of the physical, chemical and biological phenomena and processes in structures that have at least one lengthscale ranging from molecular to approximately 100 nm (or submicron in some situations), and exhibit improved and novel properties that are a direct result of their small size.
Nanoparticle research is a key component of nanoscience, nanoengineering and nanotechnology.
The focus of the Journal is on the specific concepts, properties, phenomena, and processes related to particles, tubes, layers, macromolecules, clusters and other finite structures of the nanoscale size range. Synthesis, assembly, transport, reactivity, and stability of such structures are considered. Development of in-situ and ex-situ instrumentation for characterization of nanoparticles and their interfaces should be based on new principles for probing properties and phenomena not well understood at the nanometer scale. Modeling and simulation may include atom-based quantum mechanics; molecular dynamics; single-particle, multi-body and continuum based models; fractals; other methods suitable for modeling particle synthesis, assembling and interaction processes. Realization and application of systems, structures and devices with novel functions obtained via precursor nanoparticles is emphasized. Approaches may include gas-, liquid-, solid-, and vacuum-based processes, size reduction, chemical- and bio-self assembly. Contributions include utilization of nanoparticle systems for enhancing a phenomenon or process and particle assembling into hierarchical structures, as well as formulation and the administration of drugs. Synergistic approaches originating from different disciplines and technologies, and interaction between the research providers and users in this field, are encouraged.
