Description
Summary:A rapid and sensitive high performance, thin-layer chromatographic (HPTLC) method has been developed for the measurement of celiprolol in human plasma and its use in pharmacokinetic studies has been evaluated. Detection and quantitation were performed without using an internal standard. A simple extraction procedure was followed for extracting celiprolol from plasma and a known amount of the extract was spotted on precoated silica gel 60 F254 plates using a Camag Linomat IV autosampler. Celiprolol was quantitated using a Camag TLC Scanner 3. The average recovery of authentic analytes (20 to 200 ng/mL) added to plasma was 72.06 +/- 2.8% and the lowest amount of celiprolol that could be detected was 10 ng/mL. The method provides a direct estimate of the amount of celiprolol present in plasma. Pharmacokinetic parameters of 2 marketed preparations have also been determined after oral administration to 12 healthy human volunteers.
