“…The most frequently used organic solvent in gradient mode for quantitative determination of vancomycin and/ or teicoplanin is acetonitrile, but some authors reported use of methanol for analysis of these two drugs (Javorska et al, 2017;Begou et al, 2017;Sheng & Zhou, 2017;Brozmanová et al;Kim et al, 2016;Wicha & Kloft, 2016;Oyaert et al, 2015;Cao et al, 2014;Bijleveld et al, 2014;Li et al, 2014;Zhang, 2014aZhang et al, 2014bCazorla-Reyes et al, 2014). In most cases, the aqueous phase consisted of water with different contents of formic acid (0.01-0.1%) (Javorska et al, 2017;Begou et al, 2017;Kim et al, 2016;Wicha & Kloft, 2016;Oyaert et al, 2015;Cazorla-Reyes et al, 2014;Zhang et al, 2014a;Zhang et al, 2014b;Li et al, 2014;). Also, it was reported that the aqueous phase could contain phosphate and ammonium acetate buffer (Cao et al, 2014;Sheng & Zhou, 2017;Brozmanová et al, 2017;Bijleveld et al, 2014;.…”
