Microemulsion electrokinetic chromatography (MEEKC) is an electrophoretic methodology based on the separation of compounds by a microemulsionated electrolyte. There are few options for the evaluation of the stability and content of the oral anticoagulant rivaroxaban (RIV) in pharmaceutical formulations. RIV has low water solubility and undergoes ionization only under restricted pH conditions (pH < 1 or pH > 13), thus, hindering the application of free zone capillary electrophoresis as an analytical method. Therefore, the work aimed at developing and validating a stability-indicating MEEKC method for the analysis of RIV in pharmaceutical formulations. Separation was performed in a fused-silica capillary applying a voltage of 30 kV. The microemulsion system consisted of 13 mM tetraborate, pH 9.75 + 1.2% SDS + 1.0% ethyl acetate + 2.4% butanol. The linearity range was 25-150 μg mL-1, with r = 0.9982. Drug degradations were performed in acid and basic media (HCl 1 M and NaOH 0.1 M, respectively), oxidation with 3%H2O2, 60°C temperature and exposure to UV-C radiation. No interferences with RIV or internal standard peaks were detected. Method robustness was accessed through Plackett-Burman experimental design, after evaluation of model validity. Trueness values between 100.49 and 100.68% were obtained with repeatability. The method developed was found appropriate for quality control of RIV tablets, as a consistent analytical technique that is considered less damaging to the environment due to its low consumption of organic reagents.
