O presente estudo demonstrou sucesso na previsão do fator de retenção de 7

corticosteroides utilizando o algoritmo S-RLM. Os altos coeficientes de correlação e

baixíssimos erros de previsão confirmaram o alto poder de previsão do modelo

desenvolvido. Na analise simultânea desses compostos o método ideal previsto

demonstrou um bom método isocrático para 4 compostos analisados durante somente 3

minutos de eluição. A aplicação do modelo para testar uma série de compostos

demonstrou que este novo modelo é capaz de prever com excelente precisão o fator de

retenção de corticosteroides mesmo em condições extrapoladas. Espera-se aprimorar

esse simulador no sentido de atender uma variedade de compostos esteroidais.

Conclusões

Os resultados desse trabalho mostraram que foi possível aplicar a abordagem

aQbD para o desenvolvimento de métodos cromatográficos de ultra eficiência. Esse

estudo foi focado em análise simultânea de compostos corticosteroides, antifúngicos e

também a determinação de conservantes utilizados em formulações semissólidas.

No primeiro capítulo, a identificação e quantificação de dexametasona acetato e

clotrimazol em cremes, foi realizada através de software de transferência de método de

CLAE para CLUE, e foi obtido um método mais rápido, havendo pouco gasto de

solvente durante a otimização para CLUE, além do preparo de amostra ter sido simples

e rápido. O método ofereceu vantagens em análises de rotina para essas formulações,

quando comparado aos métodos oficiais e os já desenvolvidos para CLAE.

Foi visto também que a determinação simultânea de compostos é um desafio

quando se deseja trabalhar com métodos isocráticos. Para isso, no segundo capítulo, o

método foi desenvolvido através de simulação em software comercial (ChromSword

Auto Rapid

®

) com preferência e ajuste para método isocrático, uma vez que esse modo

de eluição permite uma melhor reprodutibilidade e robustez. No entanto, o software

possuiu limitação, desenvolvendo método somente em modo CLAE. A solução

encontrada, após o desenvolvimento do método pelo software, foi transferir as

condições cromatográficas para CLUE e verificar a eficiência da separação em coluna

com partícula de núcleo sólido, que exige condições de ultra pressão. Três colunas

utilizadas em CLUE foram comparadas em relação à sua eficiência, e o método mostrou

ser adequado para análise simultânea de corticosteroides e conservantes utilizando uma

coluna Core-Shell 1.3µm quando se injetou 1 µL de amostra. O método apresentou

menor tempo de análise e menor consumo de solvente, quando comparado ao método

por CLAE.

No terceiro capítulo, o planejamento fatorial completo 3

3

foi utilizado como

ferramenta aQbD para desenvolvimento de métodos. O planejamento mostrou zonas de

robustez e o método foi validado, apresentando seletividade e linearidade, atendendo

principalmente aos parâmetros de adequabilidade do sistema. O método foi aplicado na

análise de creme, gel, loção e pomada contendo betametasona valerato, utilizando

dexametasona acetato como padrão interno. O tempo total por corrida e o baixo

consumo de solvente, 0,2 mL por minuto, mostrou que o método além de ser robusto,

preciso e exato, ofereceu vantagens em relação aos métodos oficiais presentes nas

Farmacopéias Americana e Britânica, sendo mais rápido, econômico e confiável.

Conclusões

114

Frente às dificuldades encontradas na simulação de retenção de compostos, em

condições de ultra pressão, tornou-se necessária a criação de um modelo matemático

que pudesse atender a essas condições cromatográficas diferenciadas. No quarto

capítulo, o conceito de correlação quantitativa entre estutura química e retenção foi

utilizado para criação de um modelo de previsão de fator de retenção para análise de

corticosteroides em cromatografia líquida de ultra eficiência. O modelo desenvolvido

apresentou excelente condição isocrática para análise simultânea de corticosteroides em

menos de três minutos de corrida. A previsão foi eficiente mesmo em condições

extrapoladas de fase móvel e temperatura do forno da coluna. Esse modelo foi aplicado,

portanto, na criação de um simulador para análise desses compostos em diferentes

condições cromatográficas de ultra eficiência.

Seja com o planejamento estatístico ou uso de ferramentas computacionais, os

métodos ainda necessitam de intervenções para ajuste, otimização e tomada de decisões.

O trabalho mostrou que apesar de terem sido planejados por diferentes estratégias, a

intervenção do analista/cromatografista ainda é necessária. Tendências, como o uso de

inteligência artificial e modelos mais sofisticados, são promessas para um futuro

promissor na cromatografia e na análise de fármacos e medicamentos.

a b s t r a c t

An ultra high performance liquid chromatographic method has been developed and validated for the determination of betamethasone valerate (BMV) in topical dermatologic formulations. For the develop- ment of the method, response surface methodology based on a three-level full factorial design was used. The eluent composition, the column dimension and the flow rate were chosen as relevant experimental parameters to investigate. The response surface plots revealed an optimum separation by using a RP col-

umn (30 mm  2 mm i.d., 2.2lm particle size), at 30 °C; isocratic mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile:

water (60:40) at a flow rate of 0.2 mL min 1and a wavelength set at 254 nm. The proposed method was

validated for four types of matrices according to ICH guidelines requirements. Dexamethasone acetate

(DMA) was used as internal standard. Linearity was studied in the range of 5–200lg mL 1for BMV in

spiked matrix samples. Recoveries were in the range of 95–105% and precision was better than 5% for both analytes, either in cream, gel, ointment, or lotion formulations, when using simple sample prepara- tion. Retention times were 0.95 min for DMA and 1.40 min for BMV, demonstrating a short method run time. The method was successfully applied for routine analysis of dermatological formulations containing
