“…Some of these reports including fluorimetery, 6 spectrophotometry, 7,8 gas chromatography, [9][10][11][12] ion-chromatography, 13 HPLC, [14][15][16][17][18] HPLC/MS-MS, 19,20 LC-ESI-MS, 21 SPME-LC-ESI-MS, 22 MIP-LC-MS, 23 and electrochemical methods. 24 In spite of higher selectivity presented by above mentioned methods, most of them require sophisticated equipment and are costly, time consuming and also suffer from some disadvantages such as intricate and tedious operational procedure, and high material consumption which is quite inconvenient for for routine clinical applications. It is necessary for future individualized patient treatment to develop a simple, rapid and highly sensitive method for the monitoring of verapamil doses in the biological fluids.…”
