RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To develop a specific, sensitive, reproducible SPE-HPLC method for the determination of 37 drugs in whole blood. METHODS: With the doxapram as internal standard, Oasis column was used to extract drugs from whole blood. Two kinds of mobile phases were used in this study. Separations were achieved by a LiChrospher 100 RP-C18 (250 mm x 4.0 mm x 5 microm) column kept at 50 degrees C, the DAD detector was set at 230 nm and 250 nm. RESULTS: The limit of detection were 1-30 ng/mL. The method showed excellent linearity and the linear correlation coefficient was > or =0.997 98. The relative standard deviation for between-day and within-day assay were <10%. CONCLUSION: The method is effective, simple, reliable and has been used in real cases.

The beneficial effects of high temperature on separation and detection of basic compounds, the detection being performed by MS via ESI, are investigated. The influence of various parameters on both separation and detection performances is studied. These parameters include the mobile phase pH, the temperature, and the type of stationary phase. Experiments are performed under gradient elution conditions. The results obtained with four different supports, silica-, zirconia-, carbon-, and polymer-based columns, are compared by means of different criteria including the elution composition, the peak asymmetry, and the S/N. High temperature liquid chromatography at high pH with volatile buffers suitable for MS detection was shown to be an interesting choice for solutes with basic sites.

Capillary electrophoresis (CE) can be used for the rapid determination of pharmaceuticals, particularly in routine quality control analysis. This paper focuses on several approaches aimed at decreasing the analysis time with commercially available instrumentation by (i) application of a high electric field through a reduced capillary, (ii) use of a dynamically coated capillary to increase the electroosmotic flow, (iii) short-end injection (SEI) technique, and (iv) application of multiple sample injections. Moreover, SEIs were combined with the three other approaches. A pharmaceutical formulation containing lidocaine as an active component was selected, and the methods were validated according to the ICH guidelines. The seven approaches investigated fulfilled different statistical requirements and demonstrated their linearity and trueness, with good recoveries and confidence limits always inferior to 1.5%. Furthermore, relative standard deviation (RSD) values for repeatability and intermediate precision were inferior to 1.1 and 1.8%, respectively. These results confirmed that each approach is of utmost interest to increase the analyte throughput in CE.

A unique separator was developed which allowed automatic separation and peak collection using semi-preparative supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC). A peak detector switched the effluent between waste and special collection cassettes. Up to 50 mg of various solutes were injected onto a 21-mm I.D. Cyano column. The entire flow path was contained and no aerosols were generated. Collection efficiency was as high as 95%. Peak purity was often greater than 99. 9%. Typical run times were less than 10 min. An analytical SFC was used to screen the performance of a wide range of mobile and stationary phases for the elution of more than 60 miscellaneous small drug compounds. The best 'universal' gradient employed 0.4% isobutyl or isopropylamine dissolved in methanol, then mixed from 5 to 55% into carbon dioxide at 10%/min. Flow rate was 50 ml/min. The analytical SFC was shown to be a good predictor of the semi-prep instrumental performance.

The charcoal adsorption from aqueous solution of four weak bases (lidocaine, methadone, pilocarpine, and procaine) was studied at a variety of pH values representing large differences in percent ionization. The measure of charcoal adsorption used was percent of the ligand adsorbed (constant starting ligand concentrations of 3 X 10(-4) M) by a variety of quantities of charcoal ranging from 3 to 30 mg per 10 mL of mixture. In addition, moles of ligand adsorbed/gram of charcoal values were calculated. The data indicated that for a given ligand, charcoal adsorption was statistically the same (p = 0.05) at all pH values. It is concluded that the generalization for weak bases that charcoal adsorption increases with increasing pH may not be universally valid.

A published method for the recovery of procaine from human plasma using 5M NaOH gave very poor recoveries. Investigation showed that under the recommended extraction conditions procaine was rapidly hydrolysed. Extraction into benzene of samples buffered to pH 9.0 with borate buffer allowed essentially 100% recovery of procaine from equine plasma and urine.
