HPTLC Method for Estimation of Topiramate in Solubility Studies, Diffusion Studies, Plasma, Brain Homogenate and Pharmaceutical Formulation.

Topiramate, 2,3:4,5-bis-O-(1-methylethylidene)-β-d-fructopyranose, is an anticonvulsant drug indicated in the treatment and control of partial seizures and severe tonic-clonic (grand mal) seizures in adults and children. An economic and rapid high-performance thin-layer chromatographic (HPTLC) method was developed and was validated for the quantitative determination of topiramate in plasma, brain homogenate and pharmaceutical formulation. The simple extraction method was used for the isolation of topiramate from formulation, plasma and brain homogenate samples. HPTLC separation was achieved on an aluminum-backed layer of silica gel 60F254 plates using toluene : acetone (5.0 : 2.0, v/v) as mobile phase. Spots of developed plates were visualized by spraying of reagent [3.0% phenol in the mixture of ethanol : sulfuric acid (95 : 5, v/v)]. Quantitation was achieved by densitometric analysis at 340 nm over the concentration range of 1,000-5,000 ng/spot. The method was found to give compact spot for the drug (Rf: 0.61 ± 0.018). The regression analysis data for the calibration plots showed good relationship with a correlation coefficient of 0.9983. The minimum detectable amount was found to be 165 ng/spot, whereas the limit of quantitation was found to be 500 ng/spot. Statistical analysis of the data showed that the method is precise, accurate, reproducible and selective for the analysis of topiramate. The developed method was successfully employed for the estimation of topiramate in samples of equilibrium solubility study, diffusion study, microemulsion formulation and suspension formulation (developed in-house), rat plasma and rat brain homogenate samples.
