Abstract

Two procedures are described for the fully automated analysis of several therapeutic drugs in serum, using HPLC with on-line pretreatment (solvent extraction) of the sample. The FAST-LC system (Technicon Instruments) was used for the assay of mixtures of 1) acetaminophen, theophylline, and/or caffeine, or 2) phenylethylmalonamide, primidone, phenobarbital, carbamazepine epoxide, phenyltoin, and/or carbamazepine. The rate of sample analysis was 15/hr for the theophylline group of drugs and 12/hr for the six anticonvulsants. The precision of resulting assays was about 3% (CV), and only 75 microliter of sample was required. The precision of resulting assays, in terms of a previously reported model, is also discussed.
