    Abstract:
    A high-performance liquid chromatography method applied to determine p-aminohippuric acid (PAH) and iothalamate (IOT) in serum and urine samples of patients was evaluated according to recovery, reproducibility and linearity utilizing narrow-bore columns. The mobile phase consisted of 0.15 M sodium dihydrogenphosphate with 1.2 mM tetrabutylammonium sulphate, the pH was adjusted to pH 4.6, acetonitrile was added to a final ratio of 95:5 (v/v), the flow-rate was set at 0.3 ml/min. The separation was achieved on a ODS Hypersil column (200 x 2.1 mm I.D.). The UV detector was set at 254 nm. PAH and IOT are used for evaluation of kidney function [effective renal plasma flow (ERPF) and glomerular filtration rate (GFR)]). Under the described chromatographic conditions two sample preparation techniques, ultrafiltration and acetonitrile precipitation were compared. The results demonstrate the accuracy of both methods in evaluation of ERPF and GFR. Due to its cost-effectiveness we recommend the acetonitrile precipitation method in clinical routine.
