A simple, rapid, sensitive, and cost-effective isocratic reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) method was developed and validated for the bioanalytical estimation of Imeglimin Hydrochloride in human plasma. Imeglimin, a novel oral antidiabetic agent, belongs to the "glimins" class and exhibits a unique dual mechanism of action by enhancing insulin secretion and sensitivity. At a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min, the technique used a C18 column (Hypersil BDS, 250 × 4.6 mm, 5 µm) with a mobile phase made of methanol and ammonium formate buffer (80:20 v/v) with UV detection at 238 nm. The retention time of Imeglimin Hydrochloride was observed to be approximately 3.57 minutes, indicating a relatively short analysis time. The method was validated as per USFDA guidelines, demonstrating excellent specificity with no interference from blank plasma. Across a concentration range of 12–38 µg/mL, linearity was verified with a correlation coefficient (R2) of 0.9998. The limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) were determined to be 0.51 µg/mL and 1.53 µg/mL, respectively. Accuracy studies showed mean recoveries between 98.09% and 99.37%, while
precision (intra- and inter-day) results displayed %RSD well within 2%, indicating reproducibility. The method was further proven robust and rugged through deliberate variations in analytical conditions such as flow rate, wavelength, operators, and reagent sources, with acceptable %RSD values confirming method reliability. Protein precipitation using methanol was employed for plasma sample preparation, ensuring efficient extraction. Due to its simplicity, low retention time, economic mobile phase, and high resolution, the developed RP-HPLC method is highly suitable for routine analysis and pharmacokinetic studies of Imeglimin Hydrochloride in biological matrices.
