An improved method for the determination of phytate (myo-inositol 1,2,3,5/4,6 hexakis (dihydrogen phosphate)) in plants is described. Phytate is extracted with 0.5 N HCI, purified and concentrated on an AG l-X8 anion-exchange resin, taken to dryness in a vacuum desiccator, and analyzed by reverse-ph

β¦ Synopsis
A simple high-performance liquid chromatographic method for the determination of endogenous phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PIP) and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) in brain has been developed. PIP and PIP2 were derivatized with 9-anthryldiazomethane to yield (9-anthryl)PIP and di(9-anthryl)-PIP2. The derivatives were separated on a reversed-phase column using isocratic elution and detected with a uv detector. The detection limits of PIP and PIP2 were 0.25 micrograms. The method with uv detection was sufficiently sensitive to measure the concentrations of PIP and PIP2 in rat brain. The levels of PIP and PIP2 were increased in developing rat brain and were decreased after 10 min of ischemia.

Spironolactone (I), a potassium sparing diuretic, is widely used in the treatment of edema. Metabolic degradation starts with rapid deacetylation, leading to the short lived a-thiol [l]. Subsequent elimination of hydrogen sulfide yields canrenone (II), which exists in enzymatic equilibrium with canr
A high-performance liquid chromatographic method was developed to determine stobadin pharmacokinetics in dog and man. The relative bioavailability of stobadin dipalmitate compared with dihydrochloride was 46.4 per cent in dog. In man peak serum concentrations ranged from 12 to 289 ng ml-1 after a si
