    Journal: J Chromatogr; 1991 Jan 04; 536(1-2):319-25. PubMed ID: 2050771.
    Abstract:
    An isocratic reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic procedure is presented for the simultaneous detection of desipramine, nortriptyline, imipramine, amitriptyline and clomipramine in serum. Drugs are extracted after sample alkalinization and separated from each other on an octyl reversed-phase with n-butylamine as mobile phase modifier. Detection is achieved at 254 nm. The recovery of tricyclic antidepressants (92-110%) has good precision, with a relative standard deviation of less than 5%. Being rapid and simple, the method is suitable for the emergency clinical laboratory.
