title: [Chromatographic determination of caffeine and its metabolites in saliva and plasma].
abstract: The authors made a comparative analysis of the well-known high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) techniques to detect caffeine and its primary metabolites in saliva and plasma when during their oral administration. The studies yielded a new specific and sensitive procedure for HPLC analysis of caffeine and its major metabolites, whose distinctive feature was to simultaneously separate six substances with a possibility of determining the activity of the cytochrome P-450 isozymes 1A2, 2E1, and 3A4.
