ABSTRACT
The goal of this review is to provide a guide for understanding current MS technology. Mass spectrometry (MS) has progressed to become a powerful analytical tool for both quantitative and qualitative applications. Proteomics research, in particular, increasingly depends on MS technologies. Basically, any information gathered from a mass spectrometer comes from the analysis of gas-phase ions. There are three main components of a mass spectrometer: an ionization source, a mass analyzer and a detector the name ‘mass spectrometry’ is a misnomer of sorts. The mass is not what is measured; instead, mass spectrometry determines the mass-to-charge (m/z) ratio or a property related to m/z .A mass spectrum is a plot of ion abundance versus m/z, although in many cases the x-axis is labelled ‘mass’ rather than m/z. The spectrum is presented in terms of Daltons (Da) per unit charge The ability of mass spectrometry analyzing proteins and other biological extracts is due to the advances gained through the development of soft ionization techniques such as electrospray ionization (ESI) and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization (MALDI) that can transform biomolecules into ions. Regardless of the ionization source, the sensitivity of a mass spectrometer is related to the mass analyzer where ion separation occurs.

ABSTRACT
Analytical methods development and validation play important roles in the discovery, development and Manufacture of pharmaceuticals. Method development is the process of proving that an analytical method is acceptable for use to measure the concentration of an API in a specific compounded dosage form which allow simplified procedures to be employed to verify that an analysis procedure, accurately and consistently will deliver a reliable measurement of an active ingredient in a compounded preparation. The analytical method validation is essential for analytical method development and tested extensively for specificity, linearity, accuracy, precision, range, detection limit, quantization limit, and robustness. In summary, analytical method development and validation allows to confirm that an accurate and reliable potency measurement of a pharmaceutical preparation can be performed.

ABSTRACT
A novel stability-indicating RP-HPLC method has been develop and validated for quantitative analysis of Sitagliptin in the bulk drug and in its pharmaceutical dosage forms using Hypersil–BDS- C18 column (250x4.6mmi.d, 5µ particle size) with 10mM Phosphate buffer (PH-3.5): ACN 60:40%v/v as isocratic mobile phase enabled separation of the drug from its degradation products. UV detection was performed at 260 nm. The method was validated for linearity, accuracy (recovery), precision, sensitivity, ruggedness and robustness. The linearity of the method was excellent over the range 10–60μg/ml (correlation coefficient 0.999). The limits of detection and quantification were 0.21 and 0.640μg/ml, respectively. Recovery of Sitagliptinfrom the pharmaceutical dosage form ranged from 99.99 to 100.05%.

Sitagliptin was subjected to stress conditions (Hydrolysis (acid, base), oxidation,thermal and photo degradation) and the stressed samples were analysed by use of the method. Degradation was observed in acid, base, and 30% H2O2. The drug was stable under the other stress conditions investigated. The degradation products were well resolved from main peak. The forced degradation studies prove the stability indicating power of the method.
