Simple method for the assay of clindamycin in human plasma by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography with UV detector

A rapid and simple high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method was developed and validated for the quantification of clindamycin in human plasma. After precipitation with 50% trichloroacetic acid (TCA) containing the internal standard, propranolol, the analysis of the clindamycin level in the plasma samples was carried out using a reverse-phase cyano (CN) column with ultraviolet detection (204 nm). The chromatographic separation was accomplished with an isocratic mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile-distilled water-7.6 mm tetramethylammonium chloride (TMA) (60:40:0.075, v/v/v), adjusted to pH 3.2. The proposed method was specific and sensitive with a lower limit of quantitation (LLOQ) of 0.2 microg/mL. This HPLC method was validated by examining the precision and accuracy for inter- and intraday analysis in the concentration range 0.2-20.0 microg/mL. The relative standard deviations (RSD) in the inter- and intraday validation were 6.1-14.9 and 6.0-16.1%, respectively. In the stability test, clindamycin was found to be stable in human plasma during the storage and assay procedure. The present HPLC method was applied to the analysis of samples taken up to 12 h after a single oral administration of clindamycin in healthy volunteers.     

High-performance liquid chromatographic method for simple and rapid determination of linezolid in human plasma

A simple high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method was developed and validated for rapid quantification of linezolid in human plasma. Protein precipitation using a mixture of 5% trichloroacetic acid and methanol (3:1, v/v) provided a straightforward method of sample preparation and the internal standard eperezolid was employed. A concentration range from 0.20 to 40.0 mg/L was utilized to construct calibration curves, and analysis of low- (0.40 mg/L), medium- (7.50 mg/L) and high-quality (25.0 mg/L) control samples revealed excellent reproducibility (相似文献   

Simple and sensitive method for determination of glycoalkaloids in potato tubers by high-performance liquid chromatography with chemiluminescence detection

A novel, simple and sensitive high-performance liquid chromatographic method for the determination of the potato glycoalkaloids, alpha-solanine and alpha-chaconine, based on the chemiluminescent reaction of tris(2,2'-bipyridine)ruthenium(III) has been developed. The calibration graph was linear in the range of 5 ng/ml-10 microg/ml for both alpha-solanine and alpha-chaconine. The detection limits of alpha-solanine and alpha-chaconine were 1.2 and 1.3 ng/ml, respectively. This method was successfully applied to a potato tuber sample without cleanup, pre-concentration, and derivatization steps. The recoveries (mean +/- standard deviation, %) of alpha-solanine and alpha-chaconine spiked in tuber pith at 10 microg/g (n = 6) were 101.0 +/- 4.4% and 103.6 +/- 7.1%, respectively.     

Simple and sensitive high-performance liquid chromatography method for the quantitation of indinavir in rat plasma and central nervous system

A simple and sensitive RP-HPLC method using UV detection (215 nm) was developed for the determination of indinavir concentrations in rat plasma, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and brain tissue homogenates. Biological samples were processed using a combination of acid pretreatment and liquid-liquid extraction with verapamil used as the internal standard. This method produced a linear response throughout the indinavir concentration range of 0.05-30 microM in plasma and 0.05-2.5 microM in CSF and brain with a LOD of 12.5 nM for plasma and CSF, and 6.25 nM for brain homogenate. Due to its high sensitivity, this assay is particularly useful for the quantitative determination of indinavir concentrations in brain and CSF.     

Simple and rapid method for cis- and trans-resveratrol and piceid isomers determination in wine by high-performance liquid chromatography using chromolith columns

A simple and rapid HPLC method has been developed for simultaneous determination of the four resveratrol forms (aglycon and glycosidic) in a Grenache wine from Chateauneuf du Pape (Vaucluse). These analyses were achieved by using two commercial monolith HPLC columns and diode array detection. The method provided reliable separations at low pressure with a short analysis time. The limit of detection (LD) and limit of quantification (LQ) were calculated for each standard. The molecules were separated and quantified in a single run without any purification of the sample.     

A simple high‐performance liquid chromatography for the determination of linezolid in human plasma and saliva

Linezolid is an antimicrobial agent for the treatment of multiresistant Gram‐positive infections. A practical high‐performance liquid chromatography method was developed for the determination of linezolid in human plasma and saliva. Linezolid and an internal standard (o‐ethoxybenzamide) were extracted from plasma and saliva with ethyl acetate and analyzed on a Capcell Pak C₁₈ MG column with UV detection at 254 nm. The calibration curve was linear through the range 0.5–50 µg/mL using a 200 μL sample volume. The intra‐ and interday precisions were all <6.44% for plasma and 5.60% for saliva. The accuracies ranged from 98.8 to 110% for both matrices. The mean recoveries of linezolid were 80.8% for plasma and 79.0% for saliva. This method was used to determine the plasma and saliva concentrations of linezolid in healthy volunteers who were orally administered a 600 mg dose of linezolid. Our liquid–liquid extraction procedure is easy and requires a small volume of plasma or saliva (200 μL). This small volume can be advantageous in clinical pharmacokinetic studies, especially if children participate. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Improved method for direct high-performance liquid chromatography assay of angiotensin-converting enzyme-catalyzed reactions

A rapid and sensitive assay was developed for determination of the activity of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) in the presence of inhibitory peptides present in soybean protein hydrolysates. The method utilizes reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) to separate and quantify hippuryl-histidyl-leucine (HHL) and hippuric acid (HA). HHL and HA were separated on a Symmetry C₁₈ column by gradient elution that used mixtures of trifluoroacetic acid (TFA)–acetonitrile and TFA–water as solvents. Analytical time and baseline separation of HA from HHL were improved over previous HPLC methods. In comparison to the standard spectrophotometric method, the new HPLC method obviates the need for ethyl acetate extraction of HA but requires direct injection of the ACE reaction mixture onto the HPLC column.     

Highly sensitive assay for PZ-peptidase activity by high-performance liquid chromatography

A rapid and highly sensitive assay method for measuring PZ-peptidase activity in newborn rat brain is described. The method is based on monitoring the absorption at 320 nm of PZ-Pro-Leu enzymatically formed from the substrate, PZ-L-Pro-L-Leu-Gly-L-Pro-D-Arg, after separation by high-performance liquid chromatography using a reversed-phase column. This method is sensitive enough to measure PZ-Pro-Leu at concentrations as low as 5 pmol, and is able to make the column ready for the next injection within 10 min after the preceding injection. By using this method, PZ-peptidase activity was discovered in clonal osteoblastic cells derived from newborn mouse calvaria.     

Faster analysis by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography

Summary Many analysts are not taking full advantage of the high speed possibilities of modern LC. Some analytical procedures reported in the literature, and many in regular use in control laboratories, could be achieved in less time without loss in precision. Some factors which affect retention times are discussed and the advantages and disadvantages of employing shorter column lengths and finer packing materials in reversed-phase HPLC are examined. The effect on efficiency of increased flow rates with 10,5 and 3 m ODS materials is shown. The ability to couple shorter column lengths without loss of efficiency is also demonstrated. This allows a minimum length to be selected that gives adequate resolution. Examples of high speed separations are shown and limitations in state of the art HPLC equipment and chromatographic data systems are discussed briefly.Presented at the 14th International Symposium on Chromatography London, September, 1982

A reversed phase high-performance liquid chromatography method for determination of cephalexin in human plasma

A reversed-phase HPLC method for the analysis of cephalexin (7-[(aminophenylacetyl)amino]-3-methyl-8-oxo-5-thia-1-azabicyclo[4.2.0]oct-2-ene-2-carboxylic acid) by isocratic separation is described. A comparison is made between the ultrafiltration land the extraction procedure developed in our laboratory. The extraction procedure, based on the deproteinization of plasma with perchloric acid followed by the extraction with dichloroethane and separation of cephalexin on a reversed phase column, gave better recovery. Quantitative validation of our method has been performed by an external standard technique. The relative standard deviations were between 1.1 and 1.9% in the within-day assay and between 1.2 and 2.2% in the inter-day assay. The limit of detection was 0.14ug/ml and the limit of quantification was 0.28ug/ml. This method is rapid, sensitive, simple, and reproducible. The LC MS/MS technique was successfully used for identification and quantification of cephalexin in human plasma samples.
