Simultaneous determination of cefamandole and cefamandole nafate in human plasma and urine by high-performance liquid chromatography with column switching.
A high-performance liquid chromatographic method with column switching has been developed for the simultaneous determination of cefamandole and cefamandole nafate in plasma and urine. The plasma and urine samples were injected onto a precolumn packed with Corasil RP C18 (37-50 microns) after simple dilution with an internal standard solution in 0.05 M phosphoric acid. Polar plasma and urine components were washed out using 0.05 M phosphoric acid. After valve switching, the concentrated drugs were desorbed in back-flush mode and separated by a reversed-phase C8 column with methanol-5 mM tetrabutylammonium bromide (45:55, v/v) as the mobile phase. The method showed excellent precision with good sensitivity and speed, and a detection limit of 0.5 microgram/ml. The total analysis time per sample was less than 30 min, and the mean coefficients of variation for intra- and inter-assay were both less than 4.9%. The method has been successfully applied to plasma and urine samples for human volunteers after intravenous injection of cefamandole nafate.[1]References
