“…Thus, numerous methods have been reported for the analysis of albuterol in biological samples by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), 12,13 capillary electrophoresis (CE), 14,15 supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC), 16 high-performance thin layer chromatography (HPTLC), 17,18 and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled with either electro-chemical, 6,7,[19][20][21] or fluorescence detection. 5,8,11 However, only a few HPLC methods 6,11,22 are sensitive down to the sub-nanogram/ml levels necessary to monitor the plasma levels produced by the low doses of albuterol MDI therapy.…”
