Abstract
Objective To establish an RP-HPLC method for determining serum level of valproate.Methods A symmetryshield RP18 column (5μm,3.9mm×150mm) was used.The mobile phase,methanol-water(80:20) was used at a flow rate of 1.0ml/min.The detector was Waters 2487 dualλabsorbance detector,which was set at the wavelength of 248nm.Serum sample was extracted with 2ml acetic n-hexane,then valproic acid in organic layer was derived by adding intoα-bromoacetophenone,and cyclohcxanecarboxyiic acid was selected as an internal stan- dard.Results The calibration curve was linear in the range of 5.0 to 250.0vtg/ml.The average recovery rate was 98.23%,and the RSD within-day and between-day were both less than 3 %.Conclusion This method is suitable for therapeutic drug monitoring of phenytoin.
