RESUMO
A high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method for the determination of tinidazole in human serum using metronidazole as internal standard (IS) is described. Protein precipitation is used for the preparation of sample. Mobile phase consisting of 0.002 M phosphate buffer, methanol and acetonitrile mixture (85:7.5:7.5/v/v/v) was used at a flow rate of 1 ml/min on a C18 column. The eluate was monitored using an UV/Vis detector set at 320 nm. Ratio of peak area of analyte to IS was used for quantification of serum samples. The absolute recovery was greater than 95% over a concentration range of 0.5 to 30 micrograms/ml and the limit of quantitation was 0.05 microgram/ml. The intra-day relative standard deviation (RSD) measured at 0.5, 5, 15 and 30 micrograms/ml ranged from 0.36 to 6.14%. The inter-day RSD ranged from 1.14 to 4.21%. The method is simple, sensitive and has been successfully used in a pharmacokinetic study conducted in healthy human volunteers.

A high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method for the determination of chloroxazone in human serum using phenacetin as internal standard (IS) is described. Protein precipitation is used for preparation of the sample. A mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile and 0.5% acetic acid in water mixture (40:60 v/v) was used at a flow rate of 1 ml/min on a C18 column. The eluate was monitored using an UV/VIS detector set at 287 nm. Ratio of peak area of analyte to IS was used for quantification of serum samples. The absolute recovery was greater than 96% over a concentration range of 1 to 100 micrograms/ml and the limit of quantitation was 0.05 microgram/ml. The intra-day relative standard deviation (RSD) measured at 1, 10, 50, and 100 micrograms/ml ranged from 0.9 to 5.1%. The inter-day RSD ranged from 0.6 to 3.0%. The method is simple, sensitive and has been successfully used in pharmacokinetic study conducted in healthy human volunteers.

A reverse phase HPLC method to determine piperine, a pungent constituent of black pepper, in rabbit serum and various tissues of the rat was developed. A pharmacokinetic study was performed in rabbits and tissue distribution studies were carried out in rats. High reproducibility was achieved in quantitative analysis over the concentration range of 0.2-20 micrograms/ml serum. After bolus intravenous administration of piperine at a dose of 10 mg/kg, the serum concentration--time curve fitted the two-compartment open model. The tissue distribution pattern of piperine in rats also supports the two-compartment open model.
