Abstract: | A rapid, sensitive, and specific reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography assay was developed for the determination of 1,3,4-triphenylpyrazole-5-acetic acid (isofezolac) in plasma and urine. The assay involves extraction into diethyl ether from plasma buffered at pH 4.4. The organic phase is evaporated and the residue, dissolved in the mobile phase acetonitrile—water—0.2 M phosphate buffer (pH 3) (65 : 15 : 20)] is chromatographed at a flow-rate of 1.5 ml/min. The drug is detected by its UV absorption (detection limit 100 ng/ml) or its very intense fluorescence (detection limit 10 ng/ml). Absolute analytical recoveries for isofezolac varied from 92.9 to 100.4%. The accuracy is ca. 1%. Each separation requires about 6 min. This method was applied successfully to the determination of isofezolac in humans for pharmacokinetic studies. |
