title: Determination of amidepin in human plasma by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection.
abstract: An isocratic reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic method for the determination of amidepin has been developed. The method is based on the extraction of alkaline plasma with diethyl ether-dichloromethane, and the injection into the Supelcosil LC-18 column of the evaporated and reconstituted organic phase. After separation, detection is carried out by a fluorescence detector (excitation at 195 nm with no filter). The limit of detection is 10 ng/ml of plasma. The mean coefficient of variation is 12%. The plasma levels after oral administration and after intravenous administration are shown.
