Determination of trazodone in serum by instrumental thin-layer chromatography
1Analytic Bio-Chemistries, Feasterville, Pennsylvania 19047.
Abstract:
A simple and specific method for trazodone that uses high-performance thin-layer chromatography (TLC) plates for chromatography and the Camag TLC Scanner for fluorescence-reflectance measurements is described. The quantitative method employs quinidine as an internal standard and the calibration line is linear between 0.2 and 2.0 mg/L serum, the usual range encountered in patients treated with the drug. Replicate analyses of single serum specimens demonstrated reproducibility of better than +/- 3% coefficient of variation for concentrations of trazodone in the midrange of the test line.

Protein-Drug Binding: Determination Methods
Indirect methods involve isolating the bound drug from its free form in biological samples such as blood, serum, or plasma. These techniques aim to measure the percentage of drugs bound to proteins. Equilibrium dialysis is a commonly used method where the free drug concentration at equilibrium is measured by separating the bound...
