Abstract
A simple, rapid, sensitive column-switching HPLC method is described for the analysis of the 10-hydroxycamptothecin (HCPT) in human serum. A pre-column containing restricted access media (RAM) is used for the sample clean-up and trace enrichment and is combined with a C 18 column for the final separation. The analytical time is 8 min. The HCPT is monitored with fluorescence detector, excitation and emission wavelengths being 385 and 539 nm, respectively. There is a linear response range of 1–1000 ng/ml with correlation coefficient of 0.998 while the limit of quantification is 0.1 ng/ml. The intra-day and inter-day variations are less than 5%. This analytic procedure has been applied to a pharmacokinetic study of HCPT in clinical patients and the pharmacokinetic parameters of one-compartment model are calculated.
