title: A simple method for detecting plasma propofol.
abstract: We measured plasma propofol levels by head space-gas chromatography analysis using solid-phase microextraction. This method saves time, and does not require elimination of interfering substances in the plasma. The coefficient variation was +/-5% to +/-30%. The detection limit was 10 ng/mL.
