  • Title: Sensitive determination of a new antiarrhythmic agent, trecetilide, in plasma by high-performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection.
    Author: Buist SC, Hsu CY, Walters RR.
    Journal: J Chromatogr A; 1998 Dec 18; 828(1-2):259-65. PubMed ID: 9916311.
    Abstract:
    Two high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) methods were developed for the determination of trecetilide in plasma samples. Differing only in the addition of a derivatization step and different detection wavelengths, the two methods encompassed a wide concentration range. In both methods, plasma samples (0.1 ml) with added internal standard were applied to solid-phase extraction discs containing a non-polar/strong cation mixed-phase, washed and eluted with an acetone-acetonitrile triethylamine mixture. The eluate was evaporated to dryness, and either reconstituted and directly injected onto an HPLC column or first derivatized with 1-naphthyl isocyanate before HPLC analysis. In both methods, the separation was performed isocratically on a cyano analytical column utilizing a mobile phase composed of acetonitrile-pH 7.9 phosphate buffer (70:30, v/v). The column effluent was monitored by fluorescence detection at 290/345 nm (with derivatization) or 235/320 nm (without derivatization). The limits of detection and quantitation of the assay were 0.57 and 1.9 ng/ml, respectively, when derivatization was used, or 4.3 and 14 ng/ml, respectively, without derivatization.
