A high-performance liquid chromatography procedure was developed to analyze ceftazidime concentrations in plasma. The procedure consisted of solid phase extraction followed by ion-pairing reverse-phase chromatography. An excellent linear relationship between ceftazidime peak height measurements and concentrations was demonstrated over the concentration range of 1-200 microg ml(-1). The advantage of this assay is the elimination of interference at the ceftazidime elution time that has been noted in previous studies and in our experience. Thus, this study describes an alternative, simple methodology that is clinically useful for analyzing ceftazidime in the research setting.

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.
