Abstract:
AIMTo apply stochastic resonance algorithm (SRA) to quantitative analysis of weak chromatographic signal, which was embedded in the noise.
METHODSBased on the theory of stochastic resonance (SR), a simple and effective SRA has been established to improve analytical detection limits of chromatographic analysis, which apply to enhance the signal to noise ratio by the optimization of the parameters and Runge-Kutta method, was established. The method was used to quantitative analysis of phenazopyridine in human plasma by HPLC/UV. Meanwhile this method is compared with HPLC/MS.
RESULTSBy experimental chromatographic data sets, an excellent quantitative relationship between concentrations of phenazopyridine and their responses had been obtained. The concentration of phenazopyridine in plasma determined by HPLC/UV with SRA and HPLC/MS showed that there was no significant difference (P > 0.05) between the two methods.
CONCLUSIONThe new method was feasible.
