Measurement of chloroprocaine and procaine in plasma by flame ionization gas-liquid chromatography.

Abstract: 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.

“…Procaine is rapidly hydrolyzed by pseudocholinesterases, but addition of 1 mg of echothiopate to 1 ml of plasma ensured 100 % recovery of procaine. Plasma was separated and measured by high pressure liquid chromatography (20,22). (6): The response was recorded over the contralateral sensory-motor cortex following stimulation of the right median nerve.…”

“…Since procaine hydrochloride is soluble in water, it can be administered in the blood stream. However, since the half‐life of procaine being only 36 seconds, it is immediately excreted in the urine. By adding a small amount of benzoic acid, the half‐life of procaine can be enhanced, thus repairing damaged cells.…”
