Abstract A simple, sensitive, and rapid method for the liquid chromatographic determination of sulfamethazine in animal tissues was developed by using sulfaethoxypyridazine as the internal standard. Homogenized tissue is extracted with chloroform, and the sulfa drugs are back-extracted from chloroform into alkaline sodium chloride solution. The pH of the aqueous extract is adjusted to 6, and the sulfas are concentrated on a conditioned C18 cartridge and eluted with 1 mL methanol. Sulfamethazine and sulfaethoxypyridazine are separated from tissue co-extractives by reversed-phase chromatography on a C18 column by using 0.05M sodium dihydrogen phosphate-methanol (7 + 3). Detection is performed at 265 nm. The method has a detection limit of 2 ng/g. Results obtained by this method were compared with those obtained by the official thin-layer chromatography/densitometric method.

Abstract In this novel procedure for determining ethylene glycol in plasma by liquid chromatography, benzoyl esters of ethylene glycol and of benzyl alcohol (used as the internal standard) are prepared directly in plasma. The benzoyl esters, highly ultraviolet-absorbing chromogens, are ideal compounds for analysis by reversed-phase liquid chromatography with methanol/water as the mobile phase. The benzoyl derivative of ethylene glycol is well separated from the derivative of the internal standard and from plasma constituents. The standard curve is linear to 400 mg of ethylene glycol per liter. As little as 10 mg of ethylene glycol per liter of plasma can be measured. Other commonly ingested alcohols do not interfere.

Abstract An Ion pairing reversed-phase liquid chromatographic method developed for multivitamin supplements and premlxes was applied to the simultaneous determination of thiamine, riboflavin, and pyridoxine In perchloric acid extracts of milkand soy-based Infant formulas. The method uses m-hydroxy benzoic acid as Internal standard and a mobile phase consisting of water, acetonltrile, hexanesulfonlc acid sodium salt, and ammonium hydroxide solution, adjusted to pH 3.6 with phosphoric acid. The column Is a 15 cm x 3.9 mm id Nova Pak C18. Limits of detection were 0.15 μg/mL for thiamine and 0.09 μg/mL for riboflavin by UV detection at 254 nm, and 0.010 μg/mL for pyridoxine by fluorescence detection. Mean percent recoveries based on triplicate determinations were 102 ± 1.8,102 ± 3.3, and 101 ± 3.1 for thiamine, riboflavin, and pyridoxine, respectively. The results compared favorably with the AOAC methods for thiamine, riboflavin, and pyridoxine.

Abstract This method for determination of haloperidol in plasma is based on "high-performance" isocratic liquid chromatography with the use of a C8 bonded reversed-phase column at room temperature. Haloperidol and the internal standard (chloro-substituted analog) are extracted from alkalinized plasma into isoamyl alcohol/heptane (1.5/98.5 by vol) and back-extracted into dilute H2SO4. The aqueous phase is directly injected onto the column. The mobile phase is a 30/45/25 (by vol) mixture of phosphate buffer (16.5 mmol/L, pH 7.0), acetonitrile, and methanol. Unlike other liquid-chromatographic procedures for haloperidol, commonly used psychotropic drugs do not interfere. Analysis can be completed within an hour. The procedure is extremely sensitive (1.0 microgram/L) and is well reproducible (CV 5.6% for a 2.5 micrograms/L concentration in plasma).

Abstract A liquid chromatographic method was developed for determination of the essential nutrient thiamine (vitamin Bi) in rodent feed. Thiamine was extracted with hydrochloric acid, separated by reversed-phase liquid chromatography, derivatized postcolumn to thiochrome with potassium hydroxide and potassium ferricyanide, and detected by fluorescence. Excitation and emission wavelengths were 370 and 430 nm, respectively. Detector response was linear in the range of 2.58 to 15.5 ng of thiamine injected. Instrument detection limit was 5 pg of thiamine injected.

Abstract A reversed-phase liquid chromatographic (LC) method involving precolumn derivatization with phenylisothiocyanate (PITC) was developed for determining levels of hypoglycin A (HG-A) in canned ackee fruit samples. HG-A was extracted by homogenizing the drained fruit in 80% ethanol. By using a Waters Pico-Tag amino acid analysis 15-cm-long column (which is also used for analyzing protein hydrolysates and biological samples) and an LC system, the baseline separation of HG-A from other amino acids was completed in about 6 min. The total time for analysis and equilibration was 16 min. HG-A levels in the edible portion of fruit in 18 cans varied from 18.27 to 87.50 mg HG-A/can. Recoveries of added standard HG-A averaged 101%. To our knowledge, this is the first report of the use of this method to determine HG-A in ackee fruit.

Abstract In this improved method for quantifying 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenylethyleneglycol (MHPG) in urine, after a multistep extraction of MHPG and internal standard (iso-MHPG) from 3.0 mL of urine, the compounds are separated on a C18 reversed-phase column and quantified by use of an electro-chemical detector. The isocratic chromatographic separation takes about 16 min. The mobile phase is phosphate buffer/acetonitrile (88/12 by vol), the flow rate 0.7 mL/min. Recycling the mobile phase and automating the sample injection make possible the unattended assay of more than 70 samples per day. The within-run precision of the method is excellent (CV 1.8%) at a mean concentration of 1.1 mg/L.

Abstract We have developed "high-performance" liquid-chromatographic methods for determining 4-aminopyridine, an acetylcholine-releasing drug, in serum, saliva, and urine. As little as 1 microgram/L can be detected by extracting the alkalinized sample plus the internal standard (3,4-diaminopyridine) into dichloromethane, mixing the organic phase with 1-pentanol, evaporating the dichloromethane, and injecting the residue onto a reversed-phase column, where it is eluted with acetonitrile/methanol/aqueous ammonium carbonate, with detection at 245 nm. Analytical recoveries from serum averaged 86.7%. The CV at 50 micrograms/L was 2.9% (n = 8). For urine samples containing very high concentrations of 4-aminopyridine, we mixed urine and potassium carbonate in an automatic injector vial, extracted the drug into dichloromethane, centrifuged, and injected an aliquot of the extract into the chromatograph. Analytical recoveries averaged 92%, and the CV was about 2% for drug concentrations of 0.1-8 mg/L of urine.
