We describe an isothermal gas-liquid chromatographic procedure developed for measuring thiamylal and thiopental in plasma. The unchanged drug is extracted into ethyl acetate from acidified plasma, together with an internal standard. The solvent is removed, the residue methylated, aliquots, diluted with benzene, are injected into a 183-cm gas-liquid chromatographic column containing 3% OV-17. Sensitivity of detection is in the nanogram to picogram range.
We describe an isothermal gas-liquid chromatographic procedure developed for measuring procaine and chloroprocaine in plasma. The unchanged drug is extracted into toluene from alkalinized plasma, together with an internal standard. The solvent is removed, the residue redissolved in methanol, and aliquots are injected into a 91.5-cm gas-liquid chromatographic column containing 3% OV-210. Sensitivity of detection is in the nanogram range.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
