RESUMO
A rapid back flushed (BF) direct sample injection (DSI) high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with UV detection (BF-DSI-HPLC-UV) has been developed to determine terbinafine (TERB) in human serum. For online solid phase extraction step, an isocratic mobile phase of phosphate buffer saline (pH 7.4) at 1 mL/min and a short protein-coated ODS column (PC-ODS-column) were used for the purification and enrichment of TERB. Two different chromatographic modes of PC-ODS-column were simultaneously operated. Macromolecular proteins were extracted by size-exclusion liquid chromatography, while TERB trapping and enrichment were achieved through reversed-phase liquid chromatography. The clear fraction containing TERB was transferred from the PC-ODS-column by BF mode onto the quantification step through a high pressure switching valve. An analytical mobile phase consisting of 80% methanol and 1% triethylamine in distilled deionized water (pH) 6 at 1 mL/min was used for the final separation on an ODS analytical column. TERB was quantified and detected by UV-detector at 224 nm. The proposed method showed high correlation coefficient (>0.999) over the concentrations range 4-1600 ng/mL with recoveries ranging from 98.48 to 93.86%. Measurement of TERB concentration in serum after administration of a single dose of 250 mg oral tablet was used to evaluate the applicability of the BF-DSI-HPLC-UV for pharmacokinetic study.

A simple, cost-effective and sensitive liquid chromatography-based bio-analytical method has been developed and validated for therapeutic drug monitoring of fluconazole (FLUC) in human serum. Integration of online mixed-mode solid-phase extraction (SPE) into the analytical system was the key for direct injection of untreated serum samples. A short protein-coated (PC) µBondapak CN silica column (PC-µB-CN-column) as a SPE tool and phosphate buffer saline (PBS) (pH 7.4) as an eluent were applied in the extraction step. PC-µB-CN-column operates in two different chromatographic modes. Using PBS, proteins were extracted from serum samples by size-exclusion liquid chromatography, while FLUC trapping was reversed-phase liquid chromatography dependent. FLUC was then eluted from the PC-µB-CN-column onto the quantification position using a mixture of acetonitrile-distilled deionized water (20:80, v/v) as an eluent and ODS analytical column. FLUC was separated at ambient temperature (22 ± 1 °C) and detected at 260 nm. The method was linear over the range of 200-10000 ng/mL. FLUC recovery in untreated serum samples ranged from 97.8 to 98.8% and showed good accuracy and precision. The reliability of the developed method was evaluated by studying the pharmacokinetic profile of FLUC in humans after an oral administration of a single 150 mg tablet.

A rapid, reliable and precise integrated solid-phase extraction (SPE) and reversed-phase liquid chromatography method was developed and validated to determine bupivacaine in human serum using single protein-coated analytical columns. The protein-coated columns were packed with four different sorbents: TSK-ODS, LiChrosorb RP-8, LiChrosorb RP-2 and µ-Bondapak CN-bonded silica. The method involved direct injection of serum sample onto the columns for trapping of the analyte, clean-up from weakly retained serum endogenous components, as well as the final separation. The protein-coated columns operated in two different chromatographic modes. Serum proteins were extracted and cleaned up by SPE, whereas the final separation of bupivacaine was based on reversed-phase chromatography. The protein-coated TSK-ODS column resulted in more accurate peak integration and more reproducible results. A linear relationship between the concentrations of drug and peak areas was confirmed in the range of 100-2000 ng/mL. Detection and quantification limits were 24.85 and 85.36 ng/mL, respectively. The average recovery for bupivacaine ranged from 96.48% to 98.81%. The present methodology was successfully applied, with a high degree of confidence, to analyze clinical samples obtained from patient receiving 0.5% bupivacaine therapy.

Rapid and simple micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC) with in-capillary derivatization and fluorescence detection has been developed to determine morphine in human serum. The sample was introduced into a background electrolyte (BGE) containing potassium ferricyanide, whereas morphine was oxidized into highly fluorescent product, pseudomorphine. Different parameters for derivatization and subsequent separation were systematically investigated for the analysis of morphine in serum. Efficient performance of the developed MEKC system was carried out in a single run using BGE made up of 70 mM sodium tetraborate decahydrate (pH 10.5), 0.30 mM potassium ferrricyanide, 80 mM sodium dodecyl sulfate, and applied voltage of 9 kV. The combination of MEKC with in-capillary derivatization of morphine was successfully achieved with a high degree of sensitivity. The validation of the method showed good linearity between areas of morphine and the corresponding concentrations over the range of 5-5000 ng/mL. Excellent accuracy and precision were obtained at all concentration levels. The mean recoveries of morphine were ranging from 83.86 to 94.45%. The validated MEKC method successfully permitted determination of morphine in clinical samples after a single oral dose of controlled release morphine sulfate tablets.
