Title: Selective extraction of beta-blockers from biological fluids by column-switching high-performance liquid chromatography using an internal-surface phenylboronic acid precolumn. Author: Ohta T, Niida S, Nakamura H. Journal: J Chromatogr B Biomed Appl; 1996 Jan 12; 675(1):168-73. PubMed ID: 8634760. Abstract: A column-switching HPLC method using an internal-surface phenylboronic acid precolumn for the selective extraction of beta-blockers from biological fluids has been developed. Filtered urine and plasma samples (50 microliters) were injected onto the precolumn equilibrated with methanol-0.05 M disodium hydrogenphosphate (5:95, v/v). After the precolumn had been washed briefly, the selectively retained beta-blockers were eluted with methanol-0.05 M phosphate buffer (pH 2.0) and transferred to a reversed-phase analytical column, on which they were then separated. Even after exposure to at least 160 injections of non-treated urine and plasma samples, the retention efficiency of the precolumn was maintained with no increase in back pressure. Quantitative recoveries and good reproducibility were demonstrated with pindolol.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
