Determination of cefsulodin, cefotiam, cephalexin, cefotaxime, desacetyl-cefotaxime, cefuroxime and cefroxadin in plasma and urine by high-performance liquid chromatography. 1982

J B Lecaillon, and M C Rouan, and C Souppart, and N Febvre, and F Juge

Closely related methods for the determination of several cephalosporins in plasma and urine are described. Deproteinized plasma or diluted urine is directly injected on a RP-8 or RP-18 bonded-material column. Chromatography is performed either in the reversed-phase or the ion-pair mode. The limits of sensitivity range from 0.4 to 2 mumol of cephalosporins per liter of plasma, and from 20 to 100 mumol per liter of urine. The sensitivity may be improved two to five times by using precolumn loading, direct sample clean-up and automatic injection. The stability of the cephalosporins in plasma, urine and water and the reproducibility and accuracy of the methods are reported.
