A sensitive and specific assay for ritodrine in serum was developed using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with electrochemical detection. Serum samples were alkalinized to pH 9.4 by the addition of a sodium carbonate buffer and extracted with ethyl acetate. The extracts were evaporated to dryness and the residues were reconstituted in the HPLC mobile phase and chromatographed on a octadecylsilane reverse-phase column. The detection of ritodrine was achieved by an electrochemical detector with a glassy carbon electrode. The sensitivity was 0.2 ng for on-column injection. The extraction efficiency was 80%.
