[Determination of basic drugs in blood by RP-HPLC].

A reversed-phase HPLC method for determination of phenothiazines and tricyclin antidepressants in whole blood was described. In this paper, a model 1090 HPLC with DAD and a zorbax ODS column was used. The mobile phase was methanol: water: tritely amine (75:24.7:0.3) with pH 7.5. Cyproheptadine was used as internal standard in this method. Blood samples were extracted with the solid-phase extraction method and the liquid-liquid method. This method is suitable in forensic toxicology analysis for basic drugs.
