A high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) assay of paracetamol and its metabolites is described. The method for quantifying the metabolism of paracetamol in children with chronic liver disease and the good correlation between plasma and salivary concentrations of paracetamol is demonstrated. Despite an increasing bias between the two methods with increasing concentration of paracetamol, it is concluded that salivary assay is satisfactory for characterising paracetamol pharmacokinetics in the group of patients studied.

Acute liver failure (ALF) is a life-threatening condition that occurs when the liver sustains severe damage and rapidly loses its function. The primary cause of ALF is the overdose of acetaminophen (APAP), and its treatment is relatively limited. The involvement of the complement system in the development of ALF has been implicated.

Paracetamol (PCM) is a commonly used analgesic and antipyretic agent for humans worldwide. However, PCM overdoses or overuse can cause health issues, such as hepatoxicity. As PCM is also used for the treatment of farm animals, it is essential to monitor these residues in animal-derived matrices at risk-based sites in order to minimize the intake of PCM through the food chain.
