Determination of fendiline and gallopamil by capillary isotachophoresis.

Capillary isotachophoresis was applied for the determination of fendiline and gallopamil--calcium antagonists--in serum. The cationic electrolyte system containing Na+ with acetic acid as a counter constituent was used as a leading electrolyte with the pH 4.7 and the terminating electrolyte was beta-alanine.

Determination of four selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors by capillary isotachophoresis.

We determined an optimal electrolyte system for isotachophoresis (ITP) with conductivity detection of citalopram, fluoxetine, fluvoxamine and sertraline. The analysis conditions were applied to the determination of these selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitors in antidepressant drugs. It is shown that capillary ITP with conductivity detection is a simple and quick method for the determination of citalopram, fluoxetine, fluvoxamine and sertraline in drugs.

Spectrofluorimetric and isotachophoretic determination of maprotiline in human blood serum.

Maprotiline determination in blood serum samples was investigated by the use of both capillary isotachophoresis and spectrofluorimetric techniques. The analyte had to be enriched before determination and extraction with n-heptane was used for this purpose. The preliminary separation enabled the determination of maprotiline in blood serum at therapeutic concentration levels.

Quantitative assay of verapamil in drugs and serum by capillary isotachophoresis.

Experimental conditions for a simple capillary isotachophoresis (ITP) with conductometric detection have been created for the determination of verapamil in drugs and serum. The limit of detection (LD) was 80 ng.cm-3 for standard verapamil solution.
