Determination of drugs in plasma by high-performance thin-layer chromatography.

[摘要] High-performance thin-layer chromatography was used to determine chlorpromazine, amitriptyline, nortriptyline, imipramine, desipramine, phenobarbital, and phenytoin in plasma, to demonstrate the utility of this technique for routine analysis. We quantitated the separated components by use of ultraviolet reflectance spectrometry with detection limits as low as 1 microgram/liter. Regressions of psychoactive agents extracted from plasma were linear over the range of 0 to 300 microgram/liter. The anti-convulsant drugs, phenobarbital and phenytoin, were determined over a range of 0 to 50 mg/liter. Analyses were rapid, reproducible, and well-suited to large-scale programs. Separated components also can be identified in situ by ultraviolet spectrophotometry.
