A gas-liquid chromatographic method for the estimation of theophylline in human plasma is described. The method is based on the methylation of theophylline on-column and allows the determination of concentration of the drug down to the level of 1.0 mu-g/ml in plasma.

This paper describes a procedure for the quantitative determination of methadone, meperidine, normeperidine, pentazocine, propoxyphene, norpropoxyphene, and dextromoramide in serum down to levels of 10 micrograms/L and of cocaine down to 25 micrograms/L. The procedure involves a simple extraction technique and high-performance liquid chromatography and is suitable for use in overdose drug screening, forensic toxicology, therapeutic drug monitoring, and pharmacokinetic studies.
A high performance liquid chromatographic method is described for the simultaneous quantitation of four commonly prescribed antiarrhythmic drugs: lidocaine, mexiletine, disopyramide, and quinidine. An isocratic system using a reverse phase column was used to separate these compounds. Coefficients of variation were less than 4%.
