Abstract
A simple and sensitive high-performance liquid chromatographic method for a routine assay of gliclazide in serum is described. Serum samples spiked with glibenclamide (internal standard) were applied to Bond Elut C 18 cartridges. After washing with phosphate buffer (pH 7.5) and water, the cartridge was eluted with 60% methanol. The eluate was evaporated to dryness. The residue was dissolved in methanol and injected onto an octadecyl silica column (5 μm, 150 mm × 4.6 mm I.D.). The mobile phase was 0.04 M potassium dihydrogenphosphate (pH 4.6)—acetonitrile—isopropyl alcohol (5:4:1, v/v). Ultraviolet detection at 227 nm was used. The minimum detectable level of gliclazide was 20 ng/ml.
