Abstract
Microdialysis relative recovery (RR) enhancement using different water-soluble, epichlorohydrin-based cyclodextrin polymers (CD-EPS) was studied in vitro for different analytes, amitryptiline, carbamazepine, hydroquinone, ibuprofen, and 4-nitrophenol. When compared to the native CDs (alpha, beta, and gamma) on a per mole basis, the CD-EPS enhanced microdialysis RR was either statistically greater or the same. beta-CD-EPS was more highly retained than native beta-CD by a 20 000 Da molecular weight cutoff (MWCO) polycarbonate membrane, but showed no statistical difference for loss across a 100 000 Da MWCO polyethersulfone membrane (PES). When the same weight percent of beta-CD or beta-CD-EPS was included in the microdialysis perfusion fluid, the beta-CD-EPS produced a higher microdialysis RR than native beta-CD for all analytes across the PES membrane. However, enhancements for the PC membrane were statistically insignificant when beta-CD and beta-CD-EPS were compared on a per mole basis. These results suggest that CD-EPS may be used as effective enhancement agents during microdialysis sampling and for some membranes provide the additional advantage of being retained more than native CDs.
