We have developed a simple and sensitive method for the simultaneous determination of phenytoin (PHT), 5-(p-hydroxyphenyl)-5-phenylhydantoin (p-HPPH) and 5-(m-hydroxyphenyl)-5-phenylhydantoin (m-HPPH) in rat plasma by high-performance liquid chromatography. The three substances were separated on a reversed-phase column (5 microns TSK gel ODS-80TM, 250 mm x 4.6 mm I.D.) using acetonitrile-0.008 M NaH2PO4 (pH 6) (35:65, v/v) as a mobile phase at a flow-rate of 0.8 ml/min. Absorbance was monitored at 215 nm. The quantification limit was 50 ng/ml for each of PHT, m-HPPH and p-HPPH. The mean recoveries for DPH, m-HPPH and p-HPPH from plasma were 95.6 +/- 3.6, 94.5 +/- 4.2 and 98.6 +/- 2.9%, respectively.

D010672 Phenytoin An anticonvulsant that is used to treat a wide variety of seizures. It is also an anti-arrhythmic and a muscle relaxant. The mechanism of therapeutic action is not clear, although several cellular actions have been described including effects on ion channels, active transport, and general membrane stabilization. The mechanism of its muscle relaxant effect appears to involve a reduction in the sensitivity of muscle spindles to stretch. Phenytoin has been proposed for several other therapeutic uses, but its use has been limited by its many adverse effects and interactions with other drugs.

D012680 Sensitivity and Specificity Binary classification measures to assess test results. Sensitivity or recall rate is the proportion of true positives. Specificity is the probability of correctly determining the absence of a condition. (From Last, Dictionary of Epidemiology, 2d ed) Specificity,Sensitivity,Specificity and Sensitivity
D013053 Spectrophotometry The art or process of comparing photometrically the relative intensities of the light in different parts of the spectrum.
D015203 Reproducibility of Results The statistical reproducibility of measurements (often in a clinical context), including the testing of instrumentation or techniques to obtain reproducible results. The concept includes reproducibility of physiological measurements, which may be used to develop rules to assess probability or prognosis, or response to a stimulus; reproducibility of occurrence of a condition; and reproducibility of experimental results.
