    Abstract:
    We present a method for the enantioselective analysis of propafenone in human plasma for application in clinical pharmacokinetic studies. Propafenone enantiomers were resolved on a 10-microm Chiralcel OD-R column (250 x 4.6 mm I.D.) after solid-phase extraction using disposable solid-phase extraction tubes (RP-18). The mobile phase used for the resolution of propafenone enantiomers and the internal standard propranolol was 0.25 M sodium perchlorate (pH 4.0)-acetonitrile (60:40, v/v), at a flow-rate of 0.7 ml/min. The method showed a mean recovery of 99.9% for (S)-propafenone and 100.5% for (R)-propafenone, and the coefficients of variation obtained in the precision and accuracy study were below 10%. The proposed method presented quantitation limits of 25 ng/ml and was linear up to a concentration of 5000 ng/ml of each enantiomer.
