The potentials and limitations of high-performance liquid chromatography-photodiode array detection are highlighted in respect to its use in the analysis of different biological matrices followed by the identification of unknowns. The logical analytical approach used in clinical and forensic toxicology, vital for the identification of one or more toxic substances as a cause of intoxication, is ...

Highly boron-doped diamond (BDD) electrode, have been examined for simultaneous detection of purine and pyrimidine bases in mild acidic media by using HPLC with amperometric detection. Cyclic voltammetry at as-deposited (AD) and anodically oxidized (AO) BDD were used to study the electrochemistry and to optimize the condition for HPLC applications. At AO BDD electrode, due to its higher overpot...

This study describes the determination of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in water using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled with fluorescence detection (FLD). Because individual PAHs are generally present in water only at trace levels, a sensitive and accurate determination technique is essential. The separation and detection of five PAHs were run completely within 25...

is a useful method. Although there have been some reports9~11) on the HPLC analysis of PGs and TX using 9-anthryldiazomethane (ADAM), these methods have less sensitivity than HPLC for the quantitative determination of PGs and TX in human plasma. The purpose of this investigation was to establish an HPLC method for the determination of PGs and TX in biological samples. For the analysis of PGs an...

High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with photodiode array (PDA) UV and fluorescence (FL) detection, and capillary electrochromatography (CEC) with laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) detection were investigated for the analysis of acidic extracts derived from illicit methamphetamine. These compounds include major impurities from the hydriodic acid/red phosphorous reduction method, i.e., ...
