A new high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method has been developed for the determination of the cysteine prodrug, L-2-oxothiazolidine-4-carboxylic acid (Procysteine), in human plasma. Samples were mixed with 5% metaphosphoric acid and the supernatants chromatographed using a reversed-phase analytical column. Procysteine was detected spectrophotometrically at 230 nm and quantitated by comparison with a standard curve of known amounts of Procysteine (20-1000 microM) in plasma. The coefficients of variation for 48.6 microM and 676 microM control pools were 6.5 and 4.0% respectively (n = 46). Deviations from the expected concentrations were less than 2%. The method has been utilized to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of a wide range of oral and intravenous doses.

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.
