A sensitive and reliable liquid chromatographic assay procedure for the quantitation of oxamniquine in plasma or urine was developed. Chromatographic separation was achieved on a reversed-phase phenyl colum using U.V. Detection at 254 nm. The eluting solvent was the mixture of 0.05 M acetate buffer pH 5 and acetonitrile (3:7). With this mobile phase the drug and its external standard were well separated from the interference of the blank samples. The average recovery of oxamniquine from 3 or more replicate dog plasma samples of different concentration (0.125 − 4.00 μg/ml) was 95.5% and its coefficient of variation was 4.17%. The reproducibility of the assay was confirmed by the analysis of variance test for the slopes of the three standard plots obtained from plasma samples at three different occasions (F=4.2, p > 0.01). The detection limit for plasma samples was approximately 20 ng/ml. The method was applied to measure the plasma level vs, time profile of this drug following a single bolus intravenous dose of 16 mg/kg to a dog.
