ABSTRACT:
A reliable, sensitive, isocratic and simple RP-HPLC was developed and validated for assay of Rosuvastatin Calcium in tablets and for determination of content uniformity. Chromatography was achieved by Thermo scientific C8 column, 250 x 4.6mm, particle size 5 µm with flow rate of 1.0ml/min. Detection was monitor at 248 nm. The mobile phase consisted of methanol : acetonitrile : water (40:40:20, v/v). Retention time of Rosuvastatin Calcium was found to be 3.427-and an overall analytical run time of approximately 5 minutes. The method was linear over concentration range of 140-260µg/ml ( r2 = 0.999). The limit of detection and quantification was 3.26 and 9.88 respectively. Accuracy (recovery) of Rosuvastatin Calcium was between 106.58%,100.18% and 102.81 %. The developed method was validated for accuracy, precision, ruggedness, robustness and stability of solution. The proposed method is accurate, simple, rapid, precise, time effective, reproducible and hence can be applied routine quality control estimation of Rosuvastatin Calcium in tablet dosage form. The results of validation parameters have been validated statistically and also by recovery studies.

INTRODUCTION:
Rosuvastatin calcium is the calcium salt from of Rosuvastatin, a statin with antilipidemic activity. Rosuvastatin selectively and competitively binds to and inhibits hepatic hydroxymethyl-glutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) Reductase, the enzyme which catalyzed the conversion of HMG-CoA to mevalonate, a precursor of cholesterol. This leads to decrease in hepatic cholesterol level and increase in uptake of LDL (Low density lipoprotein) cholesterol1-3. Rosuvastatin calcium is chemically bis[(E)-7[4-(4-flurophenyl)-6-isopropyl-2-[methyl(methyl-sulphonyl) amino] pyrimidin-5-yl](3R,5S)-3,5dihydroxyhept-6-enoicacid]calcium salt (Fig-1).

Rosuvastatin calcium is available in tablet form containing 5mg, 10mg, 20mg and 40mg. In this work a simple, first, economic and isocratic RP-HPLC method was developed to estimate tablet formulation. The most of the HPLC method developed for the Rosuvastatin calcium use buffer, THF, ortho phosphoric acid and triethylamine in the mobile phase preparation4-14 Table-1. An acute use buffer and acid decrease the column life, increase cost of estimation. The proposed research work was developed, validated and optimized according to International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) guideline15.

HPLC METHOD VALIDATION AND OPTIMIZATION:
For development of mobile phase different composition and ratio was tried including methanol: water (60:40), Acetonitrile: water (40:60), flow rate ( 0.7ml, 1.0ml, 1.2ml and 1.5ml/min) but peak shape was not so good. Scanning wavelengths (200 - 400nm) was also tried. Preliminary development involved trying C18, C8 reversed phase columns. The best development was done by Thermo scientific C8 column, 250 x 4.6mm, particle size 5µm with flow rate of 1.0ml/min. Detection was monitor at 248nm. The mobile phase consisted of methanol : acetonitrile : water (40:40:20, v/v). This selected developing method allows sharp peak with good retention time and without tailing.
Method validation:
The chromatographic conditions were validated by system suitability, accuracy, method and system precision, linearity, recovery, solution stability, limit of detection (LOD), limit of quantification (LOQ), robustness and ruggedness studies in accordance with ICH guideline17-19.
System suitability:
System suitability is use to verify reproducibility of the chromatographic system. The parameters like number of theoretical plates, tailing factor, Retention time were investigated by injecting standard solutions of drug in six replicates. The results are given in Table-3. From the results it was observed that system suitability parameters fall within ±2% relative standard deviation (RSD) during performance of the method. Hear asymmetric factor is less than 2 and peak is sharp and have clear base line separation.

Accuracy:
The accuracy of the method was determined by recovery experiments. Recovery study was carried out by applying the method to drug content present in tablet from which known amount of standard added at three concentration levels (80,100 and 120%) and percentage of recovery in each case was calculated. The technique involves addition of standard drug solution to pre analyzed sample solution. The sample solutions were injected and the chromatograms were recorded. These data are shown in Table-4.
Precision:
The intraday precision studies were studies by six replicate measurements at 200µg/ml. Inter-day precision of Content uniformity was determined for same analytical samples of concentration 200µg/ml of drug concentration. The result is shown in Table-5 and Table-6 respectively. The % RSD was found less than 2 for both intraday and inter-day precision. Method precision was performed by preparing six different samples from the same sample pool. Each solution was injected under the same condition and mean value of peak area response of each solution was taken. The inter-day precision of Content uniformity of sample was measured on three different days.

Limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ):
These approaches were based on the standard deviation of the response and slope. A specific calibration curve was studied using concentration range of 140-260 µg/ml. The linear graph was plotted and correlation coefficient was determined. The residual standard deviation of a regression line or the standard deviation of y-intercept of regression line may be used as the standard deviation. LOD = 3.3σ/slop and LOQ =10σ/slop, where σ = standard deviation of the response. Table-6.

DISCUSSION:
In this work an analytical RP-HPLC method for assay and determination of content uniformity of Rosuvastatin calcium in tablet formulation was develop and validated. The simple, easy to use, reproduce and selective chromatographic conditions were designed. For example, Thermo scientific C8 column, 250 x 4.6mm, particle size 5µm with flow rate of 1.0ml/min and detection was monitor at 248nm. The mobile phase consisted of methanol: acetonitrile: water (40:40:20,v/v). The drug substance was easily dissolved from pharmaceutical dosage form by using mobile phase. The tablet disperses in mobile phase and standard, sample solutions were found to be stable in mobile phase. After development of the analytical method, it was validated in accordance with ICH and USP guideline.
To determine linearity, calibration graph was obtained by plotting Rosuvastatin calcium concentration against peak area. Linearity was in the concentration range 140-260µg/ml. The regration equation was Y= 37027 X+ 12490, Y= 37040 X+ 12200 and Y= 37115 X+ 75788, where X is concentration in µg/ml and Y is the peak area in absorbance units; the correlation coefficient was 0.999.
For the determination of content uniformity RSD on the same day ( intra-day) 0.4266% for Sample A, 0.3829% for Sample B, 0.2197% for Sample C and different days (inter-day) 1.68% for Sample A, 1.2632% for Sample B and 1.2312% for Sample C. The mean values of method precision (repeatability) were 99.70% for Sample A, 99.22% for Sample B and 99.80% for Sample C, RSD 0.5985% for Sample A, 0.4941% for Sample B and 0.4439% for Sample C respectively.
This HPLC method for assay and determination of content uniformity of Rosuvastatin calcium in tablet formulation was successfully developed and validated. The method was shown to specific, linear, precise, accurate and robust.
CONCLUSION:
The developed method represents a fast, cost effective, simple analytical procedure for the estimation of Rosuvastatin Calcium in pharmaceutical dosage forms. The sample preparation and the mobile phase preparation are simple, the analysis time is very short and elution is isocratic. The proposed method has an advantage of low solvent consumption and the large number of sample can be analyzed with excellent precision and accuracy. The method is accurate, precise, rapid and selective for estimation of Rosuvastatin Calcium in tablet dosage form. Hence this method can be applied for routine analysis of Rosuvastatin Calcium in formulation.
