title: High performance liquid chromatographic determination of a new antifungal compound, ADKZ in rat plasma.
abstract: A high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method was developed and validated for the determination of ADKZ (1-(1H-1,2,4-triazole)-2-(2,4-diflurophenyl) -3-[N-methyl-N-(4-iodo-benzyl)amino]-2-propanol) in rat plasma. The compound was extracted from plasma samples by liquid-liquid extraction, and an isomeric compound of ADKZ (1-(1H-1,2,4-triazole)-2-(2,4-diflurophenyl)-3-[N-methyl-N -(3-iodo-benzyl)amino]-2-propanol) was used as the internal standard (IS), which were analyzed on a reversed-phase C18 column (5 microm, 200 mm x 4.6 mm i.d.). The extracted plasma samples were eluted with acetonitrile-0.018 M triethylamine solution adjusted to pH 3.2 with phosphoric acid (35:65, v/v). The effluent was monitored by a UV detector at 230 nm. The retention time of ADKZ was 7.1 min and IS 8.2 min. The calibration curves were linear in the concentration range of 0.02-2.00 microg/ml with the correlation coefficients greater than 0.999. The quantification limit of ADKZ in rat plasma was 0.02 microg/ml. Intra- and inter-day precision ranged from 2.6 to 7.9% and 3.1 to 9.6%, respectively. The extraction recovery from plasma was no less than 80%. No endogenous interferences were observed with either ADKZ or IS. The method has been successfully used to support the pre-clinical pharmacokinetic studies of ADKZ in rats.
