title: Development and validation of an RP-HPLC-UV method for the determination of BOL-303225-A, a new coumarin-based anti-inflammatory drug, in rat plasma.
abstract: A simple and rapid high-performance liquid chromatographic method was developed and validated for the analysis in rat plasma of BOL-303225-A, a new coumarin-based anti-inflammatory drug. Liquid-liquid extraction was used for sample preparation. Chromatographic separation was achieved on a C(18) column using acetonitrile and water containing 1% triethylamine pH 3.5, adjusted with orthophosphoric acid (35.5:64.5 v/v) as mobile phase. The UV detector was set at 324 nm. The method proved to be linear (r(2) > 0.99) and precise (RSD < 7%) over the concentration range 29-940 ng/mL, and was suitable for the support of pharmacokinetic studies in rats.
