Investigating aqueous micellar systems enhancement tools for a sensitive spectrofluorimetric determination of anti-TB: Rifampicin.

Rifampicin is a frontline antibiotic in the management of tuberculosis. Since no spectrofluorimetric methods are reported for this drug, this approach was challenged to craft a sensitive, reliable, valid, fast, and green methodology. In recent years, fluorescence spectroscopy has received a lot of interest. Its benefits include ecological greenness and analytical performance. The pharmaceutical industries greatly like this approach because of its low energy and decreased solvent usage, which make it both economical and environmentally friendly. This methodology was based on utilizing the enhanced native fluorescence of the rifampicin at 341 nm after excitation at 241 nm in a beta-cyclodextrin micellar system. Modern developments in analytical chemistry have been applied to reduce risks to the workplace and environment by using distilled water as a dilution solvent for method application and optimization. The method was found excellent green with 97 eco-scale and 0.86 AGREE scores besides an 89.6 overall whiteness score. The range of linearity for rifampicin raw material was 0.2-1.5 μg·mL, and the average recoveries for raw material and spiked plasma were 100.15% and 99.64%, respectively. The suggested technique worked well for the commercial oral syrup of Rimactane® and did not conflict with any common additives.
