Optimization and application of method to determine plasma concentration of brucine].

The HPLC method for determining plasma concentration of brucine was optimized during the study on the effect of the extraction reagent, the extraction frequency and the volume of extraction solvent on the extraction recovery of brucine. The optimum sample treatment method was obtained in the study. Specifically, ammonia water was added, 4 mL extraction solvent (N-hexane-methylene chloride-isopropyl alcohol 65:30:5) were adopted to extract brucine for twice. The method to determine plasma concentration of brucine was applied in pharmacokinetic study to compare pharmacokinetic properties of intravenous injection (5 mg x kg(-1)) and transdermal administration (40 mg x kg(-1)) of brucine aqueous alkali. The results showed that both pharmacokinetic parameters of brucine after intravenous injection and transdermal administration were in conformity with the two-compartment model. After transdermal administration, the absolute bioavailability was calculated to be 18.72%. The optimized HPLC method can satisfy the demands of the pharmacokinetic study on brucine.
