BACKGROUND/AIM Saliva is a body fluid which, like serum, can be used for determination of concentrations of certain drugs, both in pharmacotherapy as well as in acute poisonings. The aim of this study was to determine carbamazepine concentrations in both saliva and serum in acute poisoning in order to show if there is a correlation between the obtained values, as well as to monitor toxicokineti...

INTRODUCTION Acrylamide, produced during thermal processing of carbohydrate-rich foods, is classified as "probably carcinogenic to humans" by the International Agency for Research on Cancer. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to determine acrylamide levels in biscuits and breakfast cereals considering the widespread use of these products for all ages. METHOD Acrylamide determination was ca...

This report describes a case of artifactually low glycated haemoglobin (Hb) in a patient with type II diabetes and severe hypertriglyceridaemia. The effect of hypertriglyceridaemia on glycated Hb determination using the Abbott Vision method was investigated in a series of patients with diabetes. The interference of triglycerides in glycated Hb assays was also investigated by two other methods, ...

Well, someone can decide by themselves what they want to do and need to do but sometimes, that kind of person will need some high performance liquid chromatography in endocrinology references. People with open minded will always try to seek for the new things and information from many sources. On the contrary, people with closed mind will always think that they can do it by their principals. So...

High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is a refinement of traditional column chromatographic techniques. The speed of analysis and the resolution are increased with new column-packing materials and eluant pumped through the column at high pressure. The potential for achieving measurements of hormones in small volumes of plasma or urine is limited, both in normal and pathological situatio...

The high mobility group (HMG) of nonhistone proteins have been investigated using two high performance liquid chromatographic techniques (HPLC). Reversed-phase HPLC under conditions of 50 mM triethylamine adjusted to pH 2.2 with phosphoric acid (solvent A) and 95% acetonitrile in water (solvent B) was used to separate proteins primarily on the basis of differences in the overall hydrophobi...

A reversed-phase system is described for the simultaneous isocratic separation of coproporphyrin I, II, III and IV isomers. The retention behaviour of coproporphyrin I and III is studied in detail. The method is suitable for both analytical and semi-preparative separation.
