A sensitive high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method is described for the simultaneous determination of the antitumour drug camptothecin (I) and its lactone ring-opened form (II) in plasma. The sample pretreatment involved protein precipitation with cold methanol (-30 degrees C). The methanolic extract was injected directly onto the HPLC column. Chromatography was carried out with a LiChrosorb RP-18 column (particle size 5 microns) and a mobile phase composed of methanol-phosphate buffer (5 mM, pH 6.5)-0.3 M tetrabutylammonium phosphate solution (500:500:15, v/v/v). The column effluent was monitored spectrofluorimetrically with the excitation wavelength set at 369 nm and the emission wavelength at 426 nm. The chemical stabilities of camptothecin and the ring-opened form in aqueous solutions, in plasma and after methanolic extraction, were investigated. The proposed method was validated and utilized in pharmacokinetic studies with rats.
描述了一种灵敏的高效液相色谱(HPLC)方法,用于同时测定血浆中的抗肿瘤药物喜树碱(I)及其内酯环开环形式(II)。样品预处理包括用冷甲醇(-30℃)进行蛋白沉淀。将甲醇提取物直接注入HPLC柱。使用LiChrosorb RP - 18柱(粒径5微米)进行色谱分析,流动相由甲醇 - 磷酸盐缓冲液(5 mM,pH 6.5)-0.3 M磷酸四丁铵溶液(500:500:15,v/v/v)组成。柱流出物通过荧光光谱法监测,激发波长设定为369 nm,发射波长为426 nm。研究了喜树碱及其开环形式在水溶液、血浆中以及甲醇提取后的化学稳定性。所提出的方法经过验证,并应用于大鼠的药代动力学研究。
