A simple and sensitive HPLC method has been developed for the determination of danofloxacin (DAN) in plasma. Sample preparations were carried out by adding phosphate buffer (pH 7.4, 0.1 M), followed by extraction with trichloromethane. DAN and the internal standard, sarafloxacin (SAR), were separate

โฆ Synopsis
In weak acidic medium, the anticancer antibiotics bleomycin A5 (BLMA5) and bleomycin A2 (BLMA2) bind with halofluorescein dyes, such as erythrosin (Ery), eosin Y (EY) and eosin B (EB), to form ion-association complexes, which causes fluorescence quenching of halofluorescein dyes. The quenching values (DeltaF) are directly in proportional to the concentrations of bleomycins over the range 0.09-2.5 microg/mL. Based on this, a fluorescence quenching method for the determination of BLMA5 and BLMA2 has been developed. The dynamic range is 0.12-2.5 microg/mL for the determination of BLMA5 and 0.09-2.0 microg/mL for BLMA2, with detection limits (3sigma) of 0.04 microg/mL for BLMA5, 0.03 microg/mL for BLMA2, respectively. It has been applied to determine the two antibiotics in human serum, urine and rabbit serum samples. The recovery is in the range 90-102%. In this work, the optimum reaction conditions and the spectral characteristics of the fluorescence are investigated. The reasons for fluorescence quenching are discussed, based on the fluorescence theory.
