The process of growth, development, and reproduction cannot take place in a live body without the presence of amino acids (AAs) since they are necessary for appropriate functioning. Detection of AAs in pharmaceutical and food samples is required to ensure quality, quantity, and efficacy. The AAs generally do not contain chromophores; hence their chromatographic analysis requires derivatization. The research papers published in the last few years were used to compile this manuscript. This manuscript covers various analytical, bioanalytical, and electrochemical approaches used in the identification of AAs. The analytical techniques like high‐performance liquid chromatography, ultra‐performance liquid chromatography, etc., and the hyphenated analytical techniques like liquid chromatography‐mass spectrometry, ultra‐performance liquid chromatography‐electrospray tandem mass spectrometry, and hydrophilic interaction ultra‐performance liquid chromatography are also discussed. This manuscript also briefly outlines the electrochemical analytical techniques including sensors and biosensors. This review article will be useful to the researcher working in the area of the development of analytical techniques for the detection of AAs.

Impurities found in active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and pharmaceutical products are of ever‐increasing interest. According to several regulatory agencies, purity and impurity profiles are essential. An impurity is defined as any additional inorganic or organic material, residual solvents other than the medicinal components, or undesired compounds that remain with APIs. Impurities and degradation products in bulk drug materials and pharmaceutical formulations are identified, their structures are clarified, and their quantitative determination is part of impurity profiling. Unrecognized, poisonous impurities are dangerous to health and should be identified by selective procedures to increase the safety of drug therapy, and impurity profiling has become more significant in pharmaceutical analysis. This review briefly introduces process and product‐related impurities and emphasizes the creation of cutting‐edge analytical techniques for identifying them. It discusses the use of analytical methods, particularly high‐performance thin‐layer chromatography, liquid chromatography with mass spectrometry (MS), ultrahigh‐performance liquid chromatography, gas chromatography–MS, and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy for the identification of contaminants and degradation products. It has discussed the importance of the quality, efficacy, and safety of drug substances and products, including the origin, types, and quality control of impurities, the need for the development of impurity profiling methods, impurity identification, and regulatory aspects.

The risk assessment of benzene exposure can be performed based on the analysis of biomarkers in biological monitoring processes. S‐phenylmercapturic acid is a specific benzene biomarker, and its analysis challenges the sensitivity of several analytical methods. The present study aims to develop and standardize an analytic procedure to determine this biomarker through gas chromatography–mass spectrometry, based on different extraction methods, to increase the sensitivity and specificity of the studied analytical method. Liquid–liquid extraction, solid‐phase extraction, liquid‐phase microextraction, and low‐temperature partitioning extraction were tested. The last one was the selected extraction method, which was validated to ensure their quality and reliability. The method above has shown linear correlation to benzene concentrations ranging from 5 to 60 μg L−1 and presented detection and quantification limits of 0.95 and 3.18 μg L−1, respectively. Intra and inter‐assay accuracy recorded variation coefficients equal 3.63% and 8.67%, respectively. The mean accuracy value was 98.72%. This procedure presented linearity, accuracy, and detection and quantification limits within the range of interest adopted to assess occupational and environmental exposure to benzene based on biomonitoring processes.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by an extracellular accumulation of amyloid beta peptides in the brain. The concentration of the amyloid beta peptides in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) have been evaluated as potential biomarkers of AD for early diagnostic. In this work, an in‐tube solid‐phase microextraction (in‐tube SPME) coupled to UHPLC–MS/MS method was established to determine amyloid beta peptides in CSF samples from AD patients. A strong cation‐exchange (sulfopropyl methacrylate‐co‐ethylene glycol dimethacrylate) monolithic capillary was synthesized on the inner surface of a fused silica capillary and used as an extractive phase for in‐tube SPME. The morphology and chemical structure of the monolithic phase were characterized by scanning electron microscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The proposed method presented linear range from the lower limits of quantification 0.6 and 0.8 to 10 ng mL−1. Excluding the lower limits of quantification values, the analytical validation showed precision with the coefficient of variation values lower than 13.1%, and accuracy with relative standard deviation lower than 13.5%. The in‐tube SPME coupled to UHPLC–MS/MS method was successfully applied to determine amyloid beta peptides in CSF samples from AD patients.

Anemia with chronic kidney disease treating newer hope is recently approved Desidustat. By following International Conference on Harmonization Quality guideline Q2 (R1), an economic high‐performance thin‐layer chromatography method has been developed for the estimation of Desidustat. Pre‐coated silica gel 60 F254 plates as stationary phase along with mobile phase toluene:methanol:glacial acetic acid (7.5:2.5:0.3 v/v/v), and 230 nm detection wavelength was selected as optimized. Developed method was found linear in quantity per band range of 100 ng/band to 600 ng/band for Desidustat with 0.9979 regression coefficient. Standard spiking method showed method accuracy with a mean percentage recovery of 99.21%–101.63%. Limit of detection and limit of quantitation were found to be 3.94 and 11.94 ng/band, respectively. The method was found to be linear, precise, accurate, robust, rugged, selective, sensitive, and specific for the quantification of Desidustat in bulk and tablet dosage form and successfully can be applied for the qualitative and quantitative determination of Desidustat in bulk and marketed tablet formulation.
