Captopril is an orally active inhibitor of angiotensin-converting enzyme. A rapid, accurate, and sensitive high-performance chromatography (HPLC) method is described for measuring plasma concentrations of captopril. Captopril was stabilized by forming an adduct with p-bromophenacyl bromide. This adduct was measured by HPLC using a C-18 reverse-phase column and monitoring the column effluent by ultraviolet absorption at 260 nm. The method proved to be linear in the clinical range of 10-1,000 ng/ml. The plasma levels of captopril in a young patient given a small oral dose were determined by this method.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007202 Indicators and Reagents Substances used for the detection, identification, analysis, etc. of chemical, biological, or pathologic processes or conditions. Indicators are substances that change in physical appearance, e.g., color, at or approaching the endpoint of a chemical titration, e.g., on the passage between acidity and alkalinity. Reagents are substances used for the detection or determination of another substance by chemical or microscopical means, especially analysis. Types of reagents are precipitants, solvents, oxidizers, reducers, fluxes, and colorimetric reagents.

D002216 Captopril A potent and specific inhibitor of PEPTIDYL-DIPEPTIDASE A. It blocks the conversion of ANGIOTENSIN I to ANGIOTENSIN II, a vasoconstrictor and important regulator of arterial blood pressure. Captopril acts to suppress the RENIN-ANGIOTENSIN SYSTEM and inhibits pressure responses to exogenous angiotensin.
