A simple and rapid high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method using ultraviolet (UV) detection was developed to determine hydroxyurea (HU) concentration in plasma sample after derivatization with xanthydrol. Two hundred microliters samples were spiked with methylurea (MeU) as internal standard and proteins were precipitated by adding methanol. Derivatization of HU and MeU was immediately performed by adding 0.02M xanthydrol and 1.5M HCl in order to obtain xanthyl-derivatives of HU and MeU that can be further separated using HPLC and quantified using UV detection at 240nm. Separation was achieved using a C18 column with a mobile phase composed of 20mM ammonium acetate and acetonitrile in gradient elution mode at a flow rate of 1mL/min. The total analysis time did not exceed 18min. The method was found linear from 5 to 400μM and all validation parameters fulfilled the international requirements. Between- and within-run accuracy error ranged from -4.7% to 3.2% and precision was lower than 12.8%. This simple method requires small volume samples and can be easily implemented in most clinical laboratories to develop pharmacokinetics studies of HU and to promote its therapeutic monitoring.

Acrylamide, a probable human carcinogen present in heat-processed foods and environmental contaminants, requires sample extraction and preconcentration before chromatographic analysis. The method developed in this study employed derivatization with xanthydrol and dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction utilizing low-density anisole. Durian or potato chips were combined with deionized water, defatted with hexane, and subjected to precipitation of soluble carbohydrates and proteins using clarification reagents.

This work deals with the rapid and simple determination of the probable carcinogen ethyl carbamate (EC), which is naturally present in fermented food products. An undemanding, robust, and rapid pre-column derivatization utilizing a 9-xanthydrol reagent has been developed. The resulting derivative was subsequently analysed by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with fluorescence detection.

This study assessed the stability of six extemporaneously compounded hydroxyurea oral liquids stored at room temperature. Hydroxyurea oral liquids (100 mg/mL) were prepared using three different mixing methods (mortar, mixer or QuartetRx) from either bulk powder, capsule content, or whole capsules. Two brands of capsules were tested in this study.

Acetamide has been classified as a possible human carcinogen, but uncertainties exist about its levels in foods. This report presents evidence that thermal decomposition of N-acetylated sugars and amino acids in heated gas chromatograph injectors contributes to artifactual acetamide in milk and beef. An alternative gas chromatography/mass spectrometry protocol based on derivatization of acetamide with 9-xanthydrol was optimized and shown to be free of artifactual acetamide formation.
