Fluorometric assay of bethanidine in plasma. 1975

C N Corder, and T S Klaniecki, and R H McDonald, and C Berlin

A fluorometric method for determining bethanidine in blood plasma is described. The bethanidine is extracted into chloroform, a drug-dye complex with eosin Y is formed, and the fluorescence is measured (excitation, 535 nm; fluorescence, 560 nm). The assay detects 0.02 muM bethanidine (4 ng/ml) in plasma. The relative fluorescence of several body constituents and antihypertensive drugs is negligible. The plasma levels of bethanidine in four hypertensive patients receiving this drug were measured.
