Abstract

The binding of serum proteins with Butyl Toyopearl (BT) 650-M has been investigated and applied to on-line deproteinization for the HPLC determination of gentamicin components, c1, c1a, c2, in serum. It was found that in 0.4% perchloric acid medium about 36mg of BSA was adsorbed on 1ml of wet gel. Under this condition hydrophilic components such as gentamicin passed through the pre-column packed with BT 650-M, while serum proteins and hydrophobic components were trapped in the pre-column. The ion pair between gentamicin components and pantanesulfonate anion was effectively trapped in a reversed-phase analytical column. It was then eluted and fluorometrically determined by post-column derivatization with o-phthalaldehyde. The recovery was quantitative with good reproducibility at therapeutic concentrations in sera. Several clinical samples were analyzed by the method.
