Two Simple, accurate, precise, and rapid spectrophotometric and conductometric methods were developed for the estimation ofgemifloxacin (GEM) in pharmaceutical dosage forms and biological human urine. Method A: A spectrophotometric method is based on the oxidation reaction between phosphomolybdic acid (PMA) and GEM to form molybdenum blue (Mo +5 ). Beer , s law was obeyed in the concentration range of (5-27 µg/ml). The correlation coefficient ( 2) for the studied drug was found to be 0.9999. The molar absorptivity ( ), Sandell ' s sensitivity, limit of detection (LOD), and limit of quantitation (LOQ)were also calculated. Method B: A conductometric method is based on formation of an ion associate with PMA. It involves direct titration with PMA in the range of 1-20 mg. The precipitate obtained by ion pairing GEM with PMA has been spectroscopically characterized using IR spectroscopy. The method was successively applied to pharmaceutical formulations containing GEM. The results obtained were favorably compared with those obtained using the reported method.
The following paper represents a simple, highly sensitive, responsive validated and developed spectrofluorimetric method for estimation of imatinib (IMB) in its pure, commercial preparation, human urine and human blood plasma. The calibration curve was in the range 4-900 ng ml −1 for pure form and urine and 8-900 ng ml −1 for plasma in a medium contains carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and acetate buffer (pH 5) with excitation wavelength (λ ex )230 nm and emission wavelength (λ em ) 307 nm. The limit of detection (LOD) was 0.37 ng ml −1 for the pure form, 0.64 ng ml −1 for human urine, and 0.70 ng ml −1 for human plasma, while the limit of quantitation (LOQ) was 1.2 for pure form, 1.91 for urine and 2.1 for plasma. The suggested method was successfully applied for evaluation of IMB in tablets within 99% mean percentage recovery. The excipients that are usually used as additives in pharmaceutical dosage form did not interfere with the suggested method. The method was efficiently used for estimation of IMB in human urine and human plasma. The effect of some cations that might be present in urine and plasma was also studied. The method was also focused on human volunteers and in vitro drug release.

An easy, quick, simple and accurate spectrofluorimetric method was recognized and validated for evaluation of sorafenib (SOR) in pure form and biologically in plasma. Cremophor RH 40 (Cr RH 40) used for enhancing the fluorescence activity of SOR in phosphate buffer (pH 7). Cr RH 40 improved the native fluorescence of SOR remarkably in water. The fluorescence spectrum of SOR was observed at 405 nm after excitation at 265 nm. The linearity appeared to be in the range of 5 to 600 ng ml for pure and from 9 to 500 ng ml for plasma using the protein precipitation (ppt) method while from 10 to 500 ng ml for plasma using liquid-liquid extraction method. The precisions and the accuracy of the estimated method gave satisfactory results. The recommended method was effectively applied for determination of SOR in human plasma with high recovery values. The results of some compounds that are possibly found in plasma were studied. The proposed method was also focused on real volunteers and a drug dissolution test.
