Description
Summary:A combined high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) and competitive radioimmunoassay (RIA) method for ceruletide (CLT). an analogue of cholecystokinin-8, was developed to investigate the behaviour of CLT in dogs. Dog plasma samples after administration of CLT were deproteinized and separated by reversed-phase HPLC. Fractions for the HPLC eluate were measured by a RIA and two immunoreactive components were found in dog plasma. One fraction was assumed to be unchanged CET and the other was the (1–6) fragment peptide of CLT [CLT(1–6)] in accordance with the retention times. For the simultaneous determination by the combined method in dog plasma, the assay recoveries of both compounds were 100% and the values for assay precision (RSD intra-assay) were 8–19% for the CLT assay and 2–17% for the CLT(1–6) peptide assay. The lower limit of quantitation in dog plasma was estimated as 18 pg ml −1 for CLT and 14–20 pg ml −1 for the CLT(1–6) peptide. Diluted urine samples from dogs were directly injected into the HPLC and the immunoreactivities of the fractions were measured. More than 98% immunoreactivity was found at the retention time of CLT(1–6) peptide. Thus only the CLT(1–6) peptide was measured in dog urine by the RIA without HPLC separation. Urine samples could be assayed directly only after dilution 1:20. The assay recovery for urine was 100% and the precision (RSD) was estimated to be
