“…The most commonly used technique for the determination of iohexol in plasma/serum is high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) in conjunction with ultraviolet (UV; De Baere et al, 2012;Edelson et al, 1983) or mass spectrometric (MS) detection (Annesley and Clayton, 2009;Lee et al, 2006), but capillary zone electrophoresis (Jenkins et al, 2000;Rocco et al, 1996;Shihabi and Constantinescu, 1992) and micellar electro-kinetic chromatography (Kitahashi and Furuta, 2004;Shihabi and Hinsdale, 2006) have also been utilized. The HPLC-UV and HPLC-MS methods cover a concentration range from 0.5 to 1500 mg/L (Lee et al, 2006), which gives a lower limit of quantification but also a higher upper limit of quantification than that described for the capillary electrophoresis (CE) based methods (0-1000, 8-260 mg/L; Kitahashi and Furuta, 2004;Shihabi and Hinsdale, 2006). The analytical range needed may vary in clinical and research situations, but according to the authors' experience, a detection range between 15 and 3000 mg/L is necessary to cover most situations where iohexol analysis for GFR determination is performed.…”
