Protein binding of antiepileptic drugs during pregnancy, labor, and puerperium.

abstract：:The current article describes a new assay to measure thiopurine methyltransferase (TPMT) activity from red blood cells. This method is based on the measurement of the reaction product 6-methylmercaptopurine (6-MMP) by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). 6-MMP is extracted by ethyl acetate with recoveries of...
