title: An ultra-fast LC method for the determination of iodiconazole in microdialysis samples and its application in the calibration of laboratory-made linear probes.
abstract: Iodiconazole is a very potent antifungal agent used to treat serious fungal infections. After transdermal administration, several factors affect the exposure of iodiconazole, resulting in large variability and demanding further elucidation of drug distribution. For determination of iodiconazole in dermal microdialysate, a new, efficient, reliable and robust ultra-fast liquid chromatography (UFLC, Shimadzu) assay using UV detection at 230 nm has been developed and validated. Iodiconazole was separated on a Shimadzu Prominence UFLC C18 column (2.2 microm, 50 mm x 2.0 mm i.d.) using acetonitrile-0.025% triethylamine solution, adjusted to pH 3.6 with phosphoric acid (65:35, v/v), at a flow rate of 0.5 ml/min. The retention time was 1.37 min for iodiconazole and 1.78 min for the internal standard, an isomeric compound of iodiconazole. Intra- and inter-day precision ranged from 5.3% to 7.8% and 3.7% to 8.4%, respectively. The UFLC method was used to measure iodiconazole concentrations in microdialysis samples obtained during the calibration of laboratory-made linear probes. The validation and sample analysis results show that the method is precise, accurate and well suited to support the dermal microdialysis experiments.
