Summary
A reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) procedure using ultra-violet (UV) detection for the analysis of 17β-estradiol-3-phosphate in an ophthalmic solution is reported. The method is selective, accurate, and reproducible. The peak area versus 17β-estradiol-3-phosphate concentration is linear over the range of 50–150% of its label claim of 1.0 mg/mL, with a detection limit of 20 ng/mL. The mean absolute recovery of 17β-estradiol-3-phosphate using the described method is 99.8±0.6% (mean ±SD, n=10). A stress study with heat, acid, base and UV radiation indicates that the method is stability-indicating with no interference from excipients or degradation products.
