摘要
A high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) procedure for the determination of Delta(9) tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) in human plasma is described. A two-step solid-phase extraction on CN cartridges was coupled with a reversed phase HPLC system. THC was eluted using a mobile phase composed of methanol, acetonitrile and tetrabutylammonium perchlorate solution (0.005 M, pH 3.2), through a C-18 Nucleosil column and detected at a wavelength of 215 nm. Calibration curve was linear over the range 5-100 ng/ml with a lower limit of quantification validated at 5 ng/ml. Extraction recovery using the developed extraction procedure was higher than 85%. This method is presently used for the quantification of THC in plasma samples from regular cannabis smokers. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
