Abstract: | A simple procedure for the determination of amphetamine in urine with minimal sample preparation is described. This method involves direct addition of human urine to an acetone-dansyl chloride solution for simultaneous deproteinization and fluorescence derivatization. The derivatized amphetamine is then measured by HPLC with fluorescence detection. It eliminates the extraction procedures often required by other HPLC or GC methods. The effects of pH, temperature and reaction time on the derivatization reaction were investigated. The stability of amphetamine-dansyl chloride in different storage conditions was examined. The detection limit and linearity associated with this assay are discussed. |
