Abstract:
Objective To develop a rapid,sensitive and reliable high-performance gas chromatography to evaluate the fluconazole (FCZ) bioavailability after topically applied FCZ in-situ gelling ophthalmic delivery system to the rabbit eyes.Methods A megabore capillary column(30m long and inner diameter of 0.530 mm) with a 0.88-μm-thick bonded liquid phase was used.Detector was nitrogen-selective type.Tears adsorbed to the filter paper was directly by methanol with no evaporation stage prior to analysis.Aqueous humors was extracted by ethyl acetate.Results The duration of each analysis was less 10 min and the minimum detectable concentration was 0.01μg/ml.The assay was linear from 0.1 to 20 μg/ml.The average recoveries from tears and aqueous humors were 99.0% and 94.8%,respectively.Conclusion This method can be used to determine rabbit tears and aqueous humors levels of fluconazole and was practicable approach for evaluating intraocular pharmacokinetics after topically applied to rabbit eyes.
