Analysis for diazepam and nordiazepam by electron-capture gas chromatography and by liquid chromatography.

Abstract:

:We describe the use of electron-capture gas chromatography or reversed-phase "high-performance" liquid chromatography for concurrent analysis for diazepam and nordiazepam in serum. In the gas-chromatographic analysis our use of a new chemically deactivated stationary liquid phase, SP 2250-DB (Supelco, Inc.), resulted in improved chromatographic sensitivity and peak symmetry for the two benzodiazepines as compared to that obtained with either OV-17or OV-1 phases. Steady-state concentrations of diazepam and nordiazepam in serum as determined by gas-liquid chromatography correlated closely with those found by liquid-liquid chromatography.
