OBJECTIVE: To establish a method for the determination of related substances in tosufloxacin cyclizaton. METHODS: HPLC was performed on the column of YMC-Pack ODS A-312 with mobile phase of acetonitrile-water(5 ∶ 3,V/V) at a flow rate 1.2 ml/min, detection wavelength was 250 nm, column temperature was 25℃ and injection volume was 10 μl. RESULTS: The main component and related substances could be baseline separated by the conditions; the linear range was 0.04-1.8 μg/ml (r=0.999 9);the limit of quantification was 40.56 ng/ml and the limit of detection was 6.3 ng/ml; RSDs of precision, stability and reproducibility tests were lower than 3%; recovery was 99.88%-100.68%(RSD=0.29%,n=9); the result of total impurities of 6 batches of sample were less than 0.1%. CONCLUSIONS: The method is specific, sensitivity with high accuracy and precision, and can be used for the determination of related substances in tosufloxacin cyclizaton.
