Abstract

1 A rapid, accurate and convenient technique for determination of acetylator phenotype of patients or subjects has not been available for routine clinical application. 2 An improved method for rapid and convenient determination of acetylator phenotype is described. 3 The plasma concentrations of dapsone (DDS) and monoacetyldapsone (MAD) were measured 3 h after a single oral 100 mg dose of dapsone using a specific and sensitive high performance liquid chromatographic assay. 4 The plasma concentration ratio of monoacetyldapsone to dapsone can accurately assess acetylator phenotype in patients or subjects. 5 The clinical applications for this method are discussed.
