Abstract
An HPLC method is described for the determination of iodide in serum and urine using ion-pair chromatography with coulometric detection. After adding hexadecyltrimethylammonium chloride, the ions pairs formed with the iodide in the sample are extracted using an organic solvent. The solvent is then evaporated and the dry residue obtained is mixed with an appropriate volume of mobile phase so as to concentrate the sample prior to injection into the chromatograph. For a sample of 0.5 ml of serum, the method features a limit of detection (signal-to-noise ratio of 3) of 0.2 microgram l-1, sufficient to be applied in paediatric assays for the diagnosis of both iodide deficiency and excess.
