Abstract
A high-performance liquid chromatographic method for the determination of metformin, an oral antidiabetic agent, in plasma is described. Plasma samples containing the internal standard, phenformin, are eluted through Amprep extraction columns before injection into the chromatographic column, packed with μBondapak phenyl. The eluent is monitored at 236 nm. At a mobile phase flow-rate of 1.35 ml/min, the retention times of metformin and phenformin are 2.8 and 5.6 min, respectively. The intra-day coefficients of variation are 1.5 and 4.3% at metformin concentrations of 0.05 and 1 mg/l, respectively.
