چکیده

A simple rapid, and economical procedure is presented for the quantitative determination of acetaminophen in serum. Acetaminophen is extracted into solvent, and, when back-extracted into base, is simultaneously reacted with Folin-Ciocalteau reagent to form a colored complex. The potential interference of bilirubin is eliminated by treatment with p-diazobenzene sulfonic acid. Results obtained with this method agree with those obtained by "high-pressure" liquid chromatography.

Electrochemical Behavior and Determination ‎of Phenylephrine at the Multi-Walled Carbon ‎Nanotubes/ionic Liquid Nanocomposite ‎Modified Electrode in the Presence of ‎Acetaminophen

A simple and high sensitive electrochemical method was developed for determination of phenylephrine (PHE) in the presence of acetaminophen (AC) at the carbon-ceramic electrode modified by multi-walled carbon nanotubes/ionic liquid nanocomposite (MWCNTs/IL/CCE). Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) and chronoamperometry methods were used for electrochemical studie...

False positive acetaminophen concentrations in icteric serum

INTRODUCTION Serum concentrations of acetaminophen are measured to predict the risk of hepatotoxicity in cases of acetaminophen overdose and to identify acetaminophen use in patients with acute liver injury without a known cause. The acetaminophen concentration determines if treatment with N-acetyl cysteine, the antidote for acetaminophen poisoning, is warranted. DESCRIPTION A 49-year-old wom...

Spectrophotometric screening method for acetaminophen in serum and plasma.

We describe a simple, economical procedure for rapidly detecting acetaminophen in serum or plasma. The method is based upon the reduction by the drug of ferric 2,4,6-tris(2-pyridyl)-s-triazine, at an acidic pH, to ferrous 2,4,6-tris(2-pyridyl)-S-triazine complex, which absorbs maximally at 593 nm. Absorbance and acetaminophen concentration are linearly related from 25 to 400 mg/L, and so therap...
