Abstract Rapid, accurate, and precise gas-chromatographic methods are reported for measurement of propoxyphene ("Darvon") in serum. A sample of 5 ml of serum is required for quantitation in blood after a therapeutic dose of 130-195 mg of propoxyphene; in cases of overdose of propoxyphene, only 1 ml of serum is required in a "toxic method" variation. Neither serum from healthy controls or from hospitalized patients contains interfering substances. Several commonly used analgesic and sedative drugs, added to a serum pool, also did not interfere. Day-to-day precision of the therapeutic method, as measured by the coefficient of variation (CV), is 7%; the CV for the method as applied to overdose cases is less than 3%. Propoxyphene added to serum could be about 86% accounted for analytically.

Abstract A rapid method for the determination of sorbitol in raisins and dietetic foods is described. Sorbitol is converted to a trimethylsilyl derivative after precipitation of interfering organic acids as lead salts and determined by GLC, using α-d-glucoheptose as an internal standard. Nine samples of dietetic foods were analyzed. The results compared satisfactorily with the declared sorbitol content for each product. The recovery of 0.5% sorbitol added to raisins was 93%.

Abstract A simple, accurate, and rapid method for the quantitative determination of ritodrine hydrochloride (RTH) and isoxsuprine hydrochloride (ISH) in both pure and dosage forms, is described. The method is based on the development of pink colored product as a result of the condensation of 4-aminoantipyrine with phenols in the presence of an alkaline oxidizing agent. The resulting products are measured at 510 nm for both drugs, with molar absorptivities of 0.98 × 104 and 1.20 × 104 L/mol·cm for RTH and ISH, respectively. A study of the effect of commonly associated excipients revealed that they did not cause interference.

Abstract A simple and rapid method for the quantitative determination of eight tryptophan (via kynurenine) metabolites is described. The following compounds can be determined even when present in the same sample of urine, blood or spinal fluid: kynurenine, 3-hydroxykynurenine, Nα-acetylkynurenine, anthranilic and 3-hydroxyanthranilic acids, kynurenic and xanthurenic acids, 8-methyl ether of the xanthurenic acid. The compounds are separated by means of two-dimensional chromatography. Spots of kynurenic acid, Nα-acetylkynurenine and xanthurenic acid 8-methyl ether are eluted with ethanol and the absorbancies are read in the ultraviolet. An acetic solution of p-dimethylaminobenzaldehyde serves as eluent and chromogenic reagent for the spots of kynurenine and anthranilic acid. Spots corresponding to 3-hydroxykynurenine, xanthurenic and 3-hydroxyanthranilic acids are eluted with water and determined by means of the color developed with a diazo reagent. Kynurenic and xanthurenic acids can also be determined conveniently by means of a spectrophotofluorometric procedure. The reproducibility of the results is satisfactory over a large range, and very good for amounts of 1 to 5 µg.

Abstract A new procedure is described for the simple, rapid, quantitative measurement of serum alkaline phosphatase. The procedure is based on the direct photometric measurement of phenolphthalein released from sodium phenolphthalein phosphate. The substrate is available in a convenient, stabilized form as a tablet containing buffer and substrate in optimum amounts for a single analysis. As many as 30 analyses can be performed in an hour.
