We describe a procedure for determining cefuroxime concentrations in serum by using high-performance liquid chromatography. The drug is extracted from serum with dimethylformamide and separated from other substances in the extract by reversed-phase chromatography. The ultraviolet (280-nm) absorption of the effluent was monitored and quantitated based on the height of the cefuroxime peak. Intra-...

There is an increasing need for applications in food and environmental areas able to cope with a large number of analytes in very complex matrices. The new analytical procedures demand sensitivity, robustness and high resolution within an acceptable analysis time. The purpose of this review is to describe new trends based on fast liquid chromatography applied to the food and environmental analy...

The newest achievements in the application of miscellaneous liquid chromatographic techniques such as size-exclusion, ion-exchange and reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography, and thin-layer chromatography for the elucidation of the various aspects of the binding of ligands to proteins are compiled and briefly discussed. Examples of employment in pharmaceutical and clinical chemis...

Article history: Received on: 30/07/2013 Revised on: 25/12/2013 Accepted on: 09/01/2014 Available online: 30/01/2014 Micellar liquid chromatography (MLC) is one of the very important analytical techniques. It contains mobile phase added with surfactants above its critical micellar concentration and the stationary phase is modified with surfactant monomers. So, micelles alter the solubilising ca...

The development of high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) in the years of 1965 to 1985 was undeniably a success story. However, an important limitation of the technique remained: in comparison to capillary gas chromatography the resolving power accessible in a reasonable analysis time is poor. The introduction of a range of miniaturized liquid phase techniques, exploiting either pressure...

Chromatography, although primarily a separation technique, is mostly employed in chemical analysis in which High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is an extremely versatile technique where analytes are separated by passage through a column packed with micrometer-sized particles. Now a day reversed-phase chromatography is the most commonly used separation technique in HPLC. The reasons fo...

This article describes reverse phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RPHPLC) methods for determination of diuretics in different human body fluids (whole blood, plasma, serum or urine). Sample preparation procedures, including solid-phase extraction, liquid-liquid extraction, dilution, precipitation as well as automated RPHPLC procedures, are discussed in order to present the advantages...

A new high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) stationary phase was firstly synthesized based on the ionic liquid 2-ethyl-4-methylimidazole chloride. And the performances of the resulting stationary phase were determined by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and (13)C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. The retention characteristics of the resu...
