The binding of sulfadimethoxine and sulfaphenazole to human serum albumin (HSA) has been shown by circular dichroism measurements to be dependent on the N-B transition. The secondary drug binding sites were found to be optically active in the B conformation form in HSA but optically inactive in the N form. Moreover, the drug-HSA interaction in Tris-HCl buffer seems to be more sensitive to the conformational change in HSA, compared with that in the phosphate buffer.

A reverse phase liquid chromatographic (LC) procedure is described for quantitating oxfendazole (2-(methoxycarbonylamino)-5-phenylsulfinylbenzimidazole] in swine premix. Sample preparation consists of extracting oxfendazole with an acetone-methanol mixture. An aliquot of the extract is then centrifuged to separate undissolved premix excipients. Internal standard is added to the supernate and the sample is further diluted with water-acetonitrile-phosphoric acid (80 + 20 + 1). Oxfendazole is quantitatively determined using a Partisil-5-ODS-3 column with acetonitrile-0.01 M phosphate buffer (pH 6.0) as the mobile phase. The method is stability specific and yields a mean recovery of 101.1 +/- 0.4% for the 1.35% premix formulation. The dependence of chromatographic performance characteristics on mobile phase organic content, pH, and buffer concentration is also reported.
A reverse phase liquid chromatographic procedure is described for the simultaneous determination of oxfendazole [2-(methoxycarbonylamino)-5-phenylsulfinylbenzimidazole] and trichlorfon [(2,2,2-trichloro-1-hydroxyethyl)phosphonic acid dimethyl ester] in equine paste. The sample is extracted by sonication in methanol. Insoluble excipients are removed by centrifugation and an aliquot plus internal standard are diluted with dilution solvent (water-acetonitrile-phosphoric acid, 80 + 20 + 1). The samples are filtered and injected onto a Partisil-5 ODS-3 column with acetonitrile-0.01 M phosphate buffer pH 6.0 (20 + 80) as mobile phase. Method specificity is confirmed using an absorbance rationing technique. The method yields mean recoveries of 100.9 and 100.0% for trichlorfon and oxfendazole, respectively. Dependence of chromatographic performance characteristics on mobile phase organic content, pH, and buffer concentration is also reported.
