A method for determining the encapsulation efficiency of dexamethasone palmitate injection
By using weakly polar solvents such as petroleum ether to extract dexamethasone palmitate injection, combined with high performance liquid chromatography, the problem of incomplete separation of fat emulsion and free drug in the prior art has been solved, ensuring the accuracy of encapsulation rate detection and the integrity of fat emulsion structure.

AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies are insufficient to effectively separate fat emulsions from free drug in dexamethasone palmitate injections, and conventional methods may damage the liposome structure, leading to inaccurate encapsulation rate test results.
Using the principle of "like dissolves like," dexamethasone palmitate injection is extracted with weakly polar solvents such as petroleum ether. The fat emulsion and free drug are then separated by high-performance liquid chromatography to ensure that the fat emulsion structure is not damaged during the detection process.
Effective separation of fat emulsion and free drug was achieved, with high accuracy in encapsulation rate detection. The extraction process caused less than 1% damage to the fat emulsion, and the recovery rate was between 90-108%, meeting the requirements of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia.
