Delafloxacin , also known as Baxdela , is a popular antibiotic with the chemical formula C18H12ClF3N4O4 . It is used to treat skin infections from both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria.
Delafloxacin can be retained and analyzed on a Primesep 100 mixed-mode stationary phase column using an isocratic analytical method with a simple isocratic mobile phase of water, Acetonitrile (MeCN), and a sulfuric acid (H2SO4) buffer. This analysis method can be UV detected at 290 nm with high resolution and peak symmetry.

|---|---|
| Mobile Phase | MeCN – 40% |
| Buffer | H2SO4 – 0.2% |
