Background: High uric acid serum level, hyperuricemia, is now associated with many diseases such as gout, chronic kidney disease, hypertension, coronary artery disease and diabetes. Febuxostat is a novel selective xanthine oxidase inhibitor approved for the treatment of hyperuricemia. Objective: The aim of this study was to develop a first analytical method for the simultaneous determination of febuxostat and uric acid. Methods: An unmodified boron-doped diamond electrode provided concurrent quantitation of drug at low levels and uric acid, which has clinical significance in the diagnosis and therapy of hyperuricemia, at relatively high concentrations. The direct square-wave voltammetric method was applied to the analysis of both analytes in human serum samples. Results: Under the optimized conditions, the linear response of peak current on febuxostat concentration was achieved in the range from 7.5 × 10-7 to 3 × 10-5 M, while uric acid showed two linear ranges of 5 × 10-6 - 5 × 10-5 M and 5 × 10-5 - 2 × 10-4 M. The method was successfully utilised for quantification of both analytes in human serum samples. Good recoveries were obtained without interference from common inorganic cations and anions as well as glucose, dopamine, ascorbic and folic acids at concentrations expected in physiological conditions. Conclusion: The great benefits of developed method are fast analysis (only 7.5 s for run), low cost and simplicity of performance.

ABSTRACT A previously described in-vitro rat granulosa cell plasminogen activator bioassay for FSH has been modified and applied in the assay of human serum. This modified method consists of exposing the diethylstilboestrol-stimulated granulosa cells from 25- to 26-day-old rats to FSH or test substance for 3·5 h in wells coated with 125I-labelled fibrinogen and treated with thrombin. Following stimulation with FSH, the dose-related production of plasminogen activator was measured as the degree of 125I-labelled fibrinolysis in the presence of added plasminogen. Using the urinary FSH/LH bioassay reference preparation as the assay standard, the useful range of the assay was 0·3–15IU/l, with an assay sensitivity of 0·3 IU/l. As determined using purified glycoprotein hormone preparations, the assay was highly specific for FSH. The minor degree of FSH bioactivity measured in some of the hormone preparations was accounted for by the amount of FSH contamination in these preparations. To abolish interference caused by unknown serum factors, we heat-treated the serum samples for 15 min at 56 °C before the assay. The results indicated that neither immunoreactivity nor bioactivity was affected by this treatment. Furthermore, heat-treated human sera gave responses parallel to the standard curve at the three dose levels (2, 4 and 8 μl) studied. We used this bioassay to estimate the FSH-like bioactivity in 15 human serum samples. The estimates of immunoreactive FSH in these samples correlated well with the corresponding FSH bioactivity (r = 0·745, n = 15 and P < 0·05). The results indicate that with this sensitive and rapid (completed within 24 h) bioassay, it should be possible to measure FSH bioactivity in heat-treated human serum samples.
