β¦ Synopsis
A rapid and sensitive method for the determination of taurine in human milk and urine by reversed-phase liquid chromatography (LC) has been developed. It involves precolumn derivatization with dinitrofluorobenzene in NaHCO, buffer (pH 9.01, catalysed by dimethyl sulphoxide, separation by LC on a PBondapak Phenyl column at 40Β°C with acetonitrile-water (1: 1) and 0.01 mol 1-l phosphate buffer (pH 5.5) as mobile phase and UV absorbance detection at 360 run. The peak area is proportional to the concentration of taurine in the range lo-80 pg ml-', the correlation coefficient being 0.9997. The detection limit in standard solutions is 0.1 pg ml-' (signal-to-noise ratio = 3). The relative standard deviations (n = 6) of retention time and peak area are 0.45% and 2.29%, respectively. The average recovery for human milk and urine are 95.8% and lOl.O%, respectively.

## Abstract Captopril, a wellβknown angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor, is widely used for treatment of arterial hypertension. Recent studies suggest that it may also act as a scavenger of free radicals because of its thiol group. Therefore, the present study describes a rapid, sensitive
A high-performance liquid chromatographic system, combining solid-phase extraction and automated precolumn derivatization is described for the routine determination of methotrexate in human plasma. The sample extraction and elution onto the analytical column were performed automatically and concomit
