A high-performance liquid chromatographic assay with UV detection has been developed for the determination of ketoconazole in human plasma. Quantitative extraction was achieved by a single solvent extraction involving a mixture of acetonitrile-n-butyl chloride (1:4, v/v). Ketoconazole and the internal standard (clotrimazole) were separated on a column packed with Inertsil ODS-80A material and a mobile phase composed of water-acetonitrile-tetrahydrofuran-ammonium hydroxide-triethylamine (45:50.2:2.5:0.1:0.1, v/v). The column effluent was monitored at a wavelength of 206 nm with a detector range set at 0.5. The calibration graph was linear in the range of 20-2000 ng/ml, with a lower limit of quantitation of 20.0 ng/ml. The extraction recoveries for ketoconazole and clotrimazole in human plasma were 93+/-9.7% and 83+/-10.0%, respectively. The developed method has been successfully applied to a clinical study to examine the pharmacokinetics of ketoconazole in a cancer patient.

Tattooing is a popular form of body art that has evolved from ancient times into being part of modern society. The understanding of biotransformation processes of coloring tattoo pigments in human skin is limited although skin reactions to tattoos with unknown culprits occur. Electrochemistry coupled to mass spectrometry (EC-MS) has widely been used as a tool for a purely instrumental approach to simulating the enzymatic biotransformation of xenobiotics.

Size exclusion chromatography-gradient (SEC-Gradient) is a powerful technique to separate polymers by their chemical composition. The stationary phase is first conditioned with a gradient from adsorli to desorli, and polymer samples are injected after the gradient in SEC conditions. Since its first description in 2011 by Schollenberger and Radke, it has never been applied to block copolymers.

Enantioseparation and enantiorecognition are crucial in the pharmaceutical analysis of chiral substances, impacting safety, efficacy, and regulatory compliance. Enantioseparation refers to the process of separating enantiomers from a mixture, typically achieved through chromatography techniques like HPLC and SFC. In contrast, enantiorecognition involves the identification of enantiomers based on their interaction with a chiral selector without the need for separation.
