Abstract

A sensitive column-switching high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with ultraviolet (UV) detection was developed for the determination of propiverine in human plasma. Propiverine and internal standard, oxybutynin, were extracted from human plasma that had been made basic with 5N sodium hydroxide into methyl tert-butyl ether. The extracted plasma sample was injected onto the HPLC system consisting of a pretreatment column, a concentrating column, and an analytical column, which were connected with a six-port switching valve. The assay was linear in concentration ranges of 2-200 ng/ml for propiverine in human plasma. This method showed excellent sensitivity (a limit of detection of 0.5 ng/ml), good precision and accuracy. This method is suitable for bioequivalence studies following single dose in healthy volunteers.
