چکیده

A rapid, selective and sensitive ultra-performance liquid chromatography method has been developed for the detection and quantification of tocopherols and retinol in human plasma. Alpha-tocopherol, gamma-tocopherol and retinol are assayed using fluorescence detection. Excitation/emission wavelengths are 295/330 nm and 325/470 nm for the analysis of both tocopherols and retinol, respectively. Retinol acetate is employed as the internal standard. The reversed-phase method incorporates gradient elution with a mobile phase consisting of methanol and acetonitrile. Separation of vitamin compounds is achieved using a bridged ethyl hybrid C18 column. The retention times for retinol, retinol acetate, gamma-tocopherol and alpha-tocopherol are 1.6, 1.8, 3.9 and 4.3 min, respectively. The limits of quantification for retinol, gamma-tocopherol and alpha-tocopherol were 0.02, 0.02 and 0.1 µg/mL, respectively. The assay method is suitable for the analysis of tocopherols and retinol in human plasma. The method may be applied following the ingestion of foods fortified with these fat-soluble vitamins.

Rapid High Performance Liquid Chromatographic Determination of Risperidone in Human Plasma

A simple, rapid and sensitive high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method for the determination of risperidone in human plasma was developed. An HPLC system based on a Nucleosil C8 column (150?4 mm) and a UV detector (?= 280 nm) were used. A mixture of sodium dihydrogen phosphate buffer-acetonitrile (55:45, v/v) adjusted to pH 6.0 at a flow rate of 1.5 ml min-1 was used as mobile phas...
