Abstract
Sinus and congestion mixture of three drugs and an impurity was studied for their spectral resolution using four multivariate algorithms. The studied drugs present in extremes of low and high concentrations. Low concentration levels of phenylephrine HCl and doxylamine succinate with high concentration of paracetamol along with its official impurity was a challenging mixture for pharmaceutical analysis. The developed algorithms are principal component regression, partial least squares, concentration residuals augmented classical least squares and artificial neural networks. Models were compared for their calibration errors in general and individual calibration as well as their prediction of external validation samples. Concentration levels in the designed mixture were carefully considered to recede the challenging dosage form ratio. The value of root mean square error of prediction and percentage recoveries were used to describe the analytical performance of the proposed models. Artificial neural networks provided the lower most error with good recoveries for all samples without outlier. Correlation coefficients between the predicted spectra by concentration residuals augmented classical least squares and the pure ones revealed the ability for qualitative analysis. The proposed chemometrics have been successfully used for pharmaceutical application and compared favorably with the official methods.

Abstract
Chemometrics is the chemistry field responsible for planning and extracting the maximum of information of experiments from chemical data using mathematical tools (linear algebra, statistics, and so on). Active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) can form impurities when exposed to excipients or environmental variables such as light, high temperatures, acidic or basic conditions, humidity, and oxidative environment. By considering that these impurities can affect the safety and efficacy of the drug product, it is necessary to know how these impurities are yielded and to establish the pathway of their formation. In this context, forced degradation studies of pharmaceutical drugs have been used for the characterization of physicochemical stability of APIs. These studies are also essential in the validation of analytical methodologies, in order to prove the selectivity of methods for the API and its impurities and to create strategies to avoid the formation of degradation products. This review aims to demonstrate how forced degradation studies have been actually performed and the applications of chemometric tools in related studies. Some papers are going to be discussed to exemplify the chemometric applications in forced degradation studies.

Abstract
In the present work, pioglitazone and glimepiride, 2 widely used antidiabetics, were simultaneously determined by a chemometric-assisted UV-spectrophotometric method which was applied to a binary synthetic mixture and a pharmaceutical preparation containing both drugs. Three chemometric techniques - Concentration residual augmented classical least-squares (CRACLS), principal component regression (PCR), and partial least-squares (PLS) were implemented by using the synthetic mixtures containing the two drugs in acetonitrile. The absorbance data matrix corresponding to the concentration data matrix was obtained by the measurements of absorbencies in the range between 215 and 235nm in the intervals with Δλ=0.4nm in their zero-order spectra. Then, calibration or regression was obtained by using the absorbance data matrix and concentration data matrix for the prediction of the unknown concentrations of pioglitazone and glimepiride in their mixtures. The described techniques have been validated by analyzing synthetic mixtures containing the two drugs showing good mean recovery values lying between 98 and 100%. In addition, accuracy and precision of the three methods have been assured by recovery values lying between 98 and 102% and R.S.D. % ˂0.6 for intra-day precision and ˂1.2 for inter-day precision. The proposed chemometric techniques were successfully applied to a pharmaceutical preparation containing a combination of pioglitazone and glimepiride in the ratio of 30: 4, showing good recovery values. Finally, statistical analysis was carried out to add a value to the verification of the proposed methods. It was carried out by an intrinsic comparison between the 3 chemometric techniques and by comparing values of present methods with those obtained by implementing reference pharmacopeial methods for each of pioglitazone and glimepiride.

Abstract
Three chemometric methods namely, concentration residual augmented classical least squares (CRACLS), spectral residual augmented classical least squares (SRACLS) and partial least squares (PLS) were applied for the simultaneous quantitative determination of Cinnarizine and Dimenhydrinate in their binary mixtures. All techniques were applied with and without variable selection using genetic algorithm (GA) resulting in six models (CRACLS, GA-CRACLS, SRACLS, GA-SRACLS, PLS, GA-PLS). These models were applied for the simultaneous determination of the drugs in their laboratory prepared mixtures and pharmaceutical dosage form via handling their UV spectral data. It was found that GA based models are simpler and more robust than those built with the full spectral data. The proposed models were found to be simple, fast and require no preliminary separation steps; so they can be used for the routine analysis of this binary mixture in quality control laboratories.

Abstract
Spectral resolution of cefquinome sulfate (CFQ) in the presence of its degradation products was studied. Three selective, accurate and rapid spectrophotometric methods were performed for the determination of CFQ in the presence of either its hydrolytic, oxidative or photo-degradation products. The proposed ratio difference, derivative ratio and mean centering are ratio manipulating spectrophotometric methods that were satisfactorily applied for selective determination of CFQ within linear range of 5.0-40.0 μg mL(-1). Concentration Residuals Augmented Classical Least Squares was applied and evaluated for the determination of the cited drug in the presence of its all degradation products. Traditional Partial Least Squares regression was also applied and benchmarked against the proposed advanced multivariate calibration. Experimentally designed 25 synthetic mixtures of three factors at five levels were used to calibrate and validate the multivariate models. Advanced chemometrics succeeded in quantitative and qualitative analyses of CFQ along with its hydrolytic, oxidative and photo-degradation products. The proposed methods were applied successfully for different pharmaceutical formulations analyses. These developed methods were simple and cost-effective compared with the manufacturer's RP-HPLC method.

Abstract
A simple spectrofluorometric method has been developed, adapted, and validated for the quantitative estimation of drugs containing α-methylene sulfone/sulfonamide functional groups using N1-methylnicotinamide chloride (NMNCl) as fluorogenic agent. The proposed method has been applied successfully to the determination of methyl sulfonyl methane (MSM) (1), tinidazole (2), rofecoxib (3), and nimesulide (4) in pure forms, laboratory-prepared mixtures, pharmaceutical dosage forms, spiked human plasma samples, and in volunteer's blood.
The method showed linearity over concentration ranging from 1 to 150 μg/mL, 10 to 1000 ng/mL, 1 to 1800 ng/mL, and 30 to 2100 ng/mL for standard solutions of 1, 2, 3, and 4, respectively, and over concentration ranging from 5 to 150 μg/mL, 10 to 1000 ng/mL, 10 to 1700 ng/mL, and 30 to 2350 ng/mL in spiked human plasma samples of 1, 2, 3, and 4, respectively. The method showed good accuracy, specificity, and precision in both laboratory-prepared mixtures and in spiked human plasma samples. The proposed method is simple, does not need sophisticated instruments, and is suitable for quality control application, bioavailability, and bioequivalency studies. Besides, its detection limits are comparable to other sophisticated chromatographic methods.

Abstract
In the attempt to discover a new polymorph of rofecoxib (Vioxx®), an unexpected product resulted. The product was characterised by chemical composition, thermal behaviour and structure and found to be 6-methylsulphonylphenanthro-[9,10-C] furan-1(3H)-one, a photo-cyclization degradation product of rofecoxib. This is a significant finding because it indicates that without appropriate control of the recrystallisation procedures, the structural integrity of rofecoxib may be seriously compromised.

Abstract
Sensitive and selective stability-indicating assay methods (SIAMs) are suggested for the determination of cilostazol (CIL) in the presence of its acid, alkaline and oxidative degradation products. Developing SIAMs is necessary to carry out any stability study. Stress testing of CIL was performed according to the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) guidelines in order to validate the stability-indicating power of the analytical procedures. Stress testing showed that CIL underwent acid, alkaline and oxidative degradation; on the other hand, it showed stability towards photo- and thermal degradation. Two chromatographic SIAMs were developed, namely HPLC and HPTLC methods. The concentration range and the mean percentage recovery were 1.0-31.0 microg/ml and 99.96+/-0.46 and 0.6-14.0 microg/spot and 99.88+/-1.10 for HPLC and HPTLC methods, respectively. In addition, derivative spectrophotometric methods were developed in order to determine CIL in the presence of its acid degradation product; these were performed by using the third derivative spectra (3D) and the first derivative of the ratio spectra (1DD) methods. The linearity range and the mean percentage recovery were 2.0-34.0 microg/ml and 100.27+/-1.20 for the (3D) method, while they were 2.0-30.0 microg/ml and 99.94+/-1.18 for the (1DD) method. Also, two chemometric-assisted spectrophotometric methods, based on using partial least squares (PLS) and concentration residual augmented classical least squares method (CRACLS), for the determination of CIL were developed. Both methods were applied on zero order spectra of the mixtures of CIL and its acid degradation product, the mean percentage recovery was 100.03+/-1.09 and 99.91+/-1.27 for PLS and CRACLS, respectively. All methods were validated according to the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) guidelines and applied on bulk powder and pharmaceutical formulations.

Abstract
A sensitive reversed-phase HPLC-UV method was developed for the determination of firocoxib, a novel and highly selective COX-2 inhibitor, in plasma. A 1.0 mL dog or horse plasma sample is mixed with water and passed through a hydrophobic-lipophilic copolymer solid-phase extraction column to isolate firocoxib. Quantitation is based on an external standard curve. The method has a validated limit of quantitation of 25 ng/mL and a limit of detection of 10 ng/mL. The validated upper limit of quantitation was 2500 ng/mL for horses and 10,000 ng/mL for dogs. The average recoveries ranged from 88-93% for horse plasma and 96-103% for dog plasma. The coefficient of variation in all cases was less than 10%. This method is suitable for the analysis of clinical samples from pharmacokinetic and bioequivalence studies and drug monitoring.
