A method based on solid phase extraction has been developed for the determination of saroglitazar in rat plasma after oral administration by high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with PDA detection (HPLCâ??PDA). Variables parameter affecting the solid phase extraction efficiency were evaluated and optimized. Chromatography separation was performed on a thermo hypersil C18 column (4.6 mm Ã? 250 mm, 5 μ) by isocratic elution with PDA detection at 279 nm. The assay was linear over the range of 4-20 μg/ml and the lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) was 4 μg/ml. The extraction recoveries were more than 77%, the accuracies were within 3.97%, and the intra- and inter-day precisions were less than 9.36% in all cases. After strict validation, the method indicated good performance in terms of reproducibility, specificity, linearity, precision and accuracy, and it was successfully applied to the pharmacokinetic study of saroglitazar in rats after oral administration.
