A sensitive high-performance liquid chromatographic method for the analysis of the immunosuppressant cyclosporin G (OG 37-325, Nva2-cyclosporine, CsG) in whole blood has been developed. Sample preparation, employing cyclosporin A (CsA) as internal standard, involves organic extraction with methyl t-butyl ether under sequential acidic and basic conditions. Chromatography is performed using a 2 mm inside diameter x 25 cm column packed with 5 microns octyl (C8) material. An isocratic mobile phase comprised of acetonitrile:methanol:water, at a flow rate of 0.4 ml/min, is utilized. Separation is monitored at 230 nm. Data are also presented that demonstrate the use of CsG as an alternative internal standard to cyclosporin D for liquid chromatographic determinations of CsA.

D003524	Cyclosporins	A group of closely related cyclic undecapeptides from the fungi Trichoderma polysporum and Cylindocarpon lucidum. They have some antineoplastic and antifungal action and significant immunosuppressive effects. Cyclosporins have been proposed as adjuvants in tissue and organ transplantation to suppress graft rejection.	Cyclosporines

D012680	Sensitivity and Specificity	Binary classification measures to assess test results. Sensitivity or recall rate is the proportion of true positives. Specificity is the probability of correctly determining the absence of a condition. (From Last, Dictionary of Epidemiology, 2d ed)	Specificity,Sensitivity,Specificity and Sensitivity

D016572	Cyclosporine	A cyclic undecapeptide from an extract of soil fungi. It is a powerful immunosupressant with a specific action on T-lymphocytes. It is used for the prophylaxis of graft rejection in organ and tissue transplantation. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed).
