Abstract
A liquid chromatographic procedure for the direct determination of tinidazole in human serum is presented. It includes the use of a micellar mobile phase consisting of SDS (5.10(-2) M): propan-1-ol; (94:6, v/v) and a mu Bondapak CN column with UV detection at 320 nm. No solvent extraction or deproteinization are necessary. The linearity (0.1-10 mg L), the precision (3%), the reproducibility (1.3%), the recovery (99%), and the detection limit (0.1 mg L) in the tinidazole determination are comparable and sometimes greater than the corresponding tinidazole parameters when deproteinization and conventional reversed-phase HPLC are used. One hundred injections of serum samples do not affect the column life. The procedure is applied to ascertain the pharmacokinetics of 10 mg/kg of tinidazole.
