An HPLC-based method for determining cytarabine (1-b-D-arabinofuranosylcytosine, Ara-C) and uracil arabinoside (Ara-U, a product of the hydrolytic deamination of Ara-C), as well other related compounds (cytidine, cyclocytidine, uridine), in aqueous solutions has been developed. The proposed method is characterized by good reproducibility and is capable of quantitatively determining all compounds simultaneously present in solution.
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.
