Abstract/OtherAbstract:
A simple and sensitive high-performance liquid chromatographic method, for the determination of cephradine in human plasma samples has been developed and validated. Cephradine and cephaloridine (internal standard) were extracted from human plasma by perchloric acid protein precipitation followed by centrifugation. Aliquots of the extracts were analysed by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) utilising a polymeric reversed-phase PLRP-S column, followed by ultraviolet detection at 260 nm. The method has a working dynamic range from 0.2 to 30.0 microg/ml from 200 microl human plasma. The precision of the method at 0.2 microg/ml was 4.9% (intra-assay) and negligible (inter-assay) as calculated by one-way analysis of variance and the accuracy of the method at 0.2 microg/ml was -4.1% in terms of percentage bias. This method has been successfully applied to clinical studies including an oral bioequivalence study comparing the pharmacokinetics of 500 mg tablets of Kefdrin with 500 mg tablets of Velosef in healthy human volunteers.
