Abstract
Diabetes patients often rely on tailored insulin therapies, necessitating precise blends of various insulin types to achieve optimal pharmacokinetic profiles, including the quantity and action duration of insulin absorption into the bloodstream. This study aimed to develop an accurate quantification method for mixed insulin preparations, consisting of Insulin-NPH and Insulin Regular in ratios varying between 0:100-100:0. Time Domain NMR (TD-NMR) techniques, T2 relaxation times, and T1T2 maps were used to analyze the mixtures. Individually, neither technique provided a reliable determination of insulin ratios. However, the integration of both methods through chemometrics has been proven to be a synergistic approach, yielding a robust quantification technique suitable for quality control in the assessment of mixed insulin drugs. This innovative combined TD-NMR method is non-invasive, cost-effective, and user-friendly, offering at the same time a significant potential for preventing health complications associated with improper insulin dosing. Furthermore, our work elucidates the broader applicability of converging multiple TD-NMR techniques for analyzing intricate mixtures.

NMR Longitudinal Rotating Frame Relaxation Time (T 1ρ) with a Weak Spin Locking Field as an Approach to Characterize Solid-State Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients: Proof of Concept.

Abstract
Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) longitudinal rotating frame relaxation time (T1ρ), rarely used in low-field NMR, can be more effective than conventional T1 and T2 relaxation times to differentiate polymorphic forms of solid pharmaceuticals. This could be attributed to T1ρ sensibility to structural and molecular dynamics that can be enhanced by changing the strength of the oscillating magnetic field (B1) of spinlock pulses. Here, we compared the capacity of T1, T2, and T1ρ to differentiate inactive (A) and active (C) crystalline forms of the World Health Organization essential drug Mebendazole. The results showed that T1 and T2 values of both forms were statistically identical at 0.47 T. Conversely, T1ρ of both forms measured with weak spinlock B1 fields, ranging from 0.08 to 0.80 mT were statistically different in the same spectrometer. The T1ρ also has the limit of detection to detect the presence of at least 10% of inactive A form in the active C form. Therefore, T1ρ, measured with weak spinlock B1 fields can be an effective, streamlined, and complementary approach for characterizing not only solid active pharmaceutical ingredients but other solid-state materials as well.

TGA and NMR relaxation measurement of nonmesoporous silica to investigate the amount of hydrolysis product in acetylsalicylic acid adsorbed on silica. J Pharm Biomed Anal 2024; 241:115972.

Abstract
This study investigated a crucial surface property of silica that contributes to the chemical stability of acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) physically adsorbed on silica. Hydrophilic nonmesoporous types of silica were selected, and the number of hydroxyl groups on silica (N(OH)) was evaluated using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The ASA-containing silica was stored at 40 °C in drying conditions, and the amount of ASA degradation was quantified based on salicylic acid. From the scatterplots between the number of hydroxyl groups per unit weight (specific surface area (SSA) × N(OH)) and the amount of ASA degradation, it was clarified that in ASA adsorbed on silica, the ASA chemical stability was determined by the formula (the SSA × N(OH)). In addition, a time-domain nuclear magnetic resonance measurement verified the N(OH) result by estimating the interaction between the silica surface and water in an aqueous silica suspension. The N(OH) result was found to be reasonable.

Abstract
This study examined the usefulness of 1H T1 relaxation measurements for evaluating the homogeneity of amorphous solid dispersion (ASD). Indomethacin and polyvinylpyrrolidone were used to prepare two kinds of ASDs. One was inhomogeneous ASD (ASDmelt) prepared by a melt-quenching method, and the other was homogeneous ASD (ASDsolvent) prepared by a solvent evaporation method. The T1 relaxation was measured by the time-domain NMR (TD-NMR) technique using a low-field NMR system. Curve-fitting analysis of T1 relaxation plots was conducted using the Akaike information criterion. This fitting analysis revealed that the T1 relaxation of ASDmelt and ASDsolvent was biphasic and monophasic, respectively. ASDmelt and ASDsolvent were inhomogeneous and homogeneous on a nanometer scale, respectively, considering the spin diffusion of 1H nuclei. These T1 results were consistent with the Raman mapping of ASDs. From the fitting analysis of 1H T1 relaxation, we conclude that TD-NMR is a promising technique for evaluating ASD homogeneity.

J Pharm Sci 2023; 112:1041-1051.

Abstract
This study applied partial least squares (PLS) regression to nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) relaxation curves to quantify the free base of an active pharmaceutical ingredient powder. We measured the T2 relaxation of intact and moisture-absorbed physical mixtures of tetracaine free base (TC) and its hydrochloride salt (TC·HCl). The obtained T2 relaxation curves were analyzed by two methods, one using a previously reported T2 relaxation time (T2), and the other using PLS regression. The accuracy of estimating TC was inadequate when using previous T2 values because the moisture-absorbed physical mixtures showed biphasic T2 relaxation curves. By contrast, the entire measured whole of the T2 relaxation curves was used as input variables and analyzed by PLS regression to quantify the content of TC in the moisture-absorbed TC/TC·HCl. Based on scatterplots of theoretical versus predicted TC, the obtained PLS model exhibited acceptable coefficients of determination and relatively low root mean squared error values for calibration and validation data. The statistical values confirmed that an accurate and reliable PLS model was created to quantify TC in even moisture-absorbed TC/TC·HCl. The bench-top low-field NMR instrument used to apply PLS regression to the T2 relaxation curve may be a promising tool in process analytical technology.
