Radioimmunoassay, enzyme immunoassay, spectrophotometry, and gas-liquid chromatography compared for determination of phenobarbital and diphenylhydantoin.
1976
Sera from epileptic patients were assayed for phenobarbital and diphenylhydantoin by four different analytical procedures. Quantitative results obtained by radioimmunoassay (I) and enzyme immunoassay (II) were compared to each other and to the results obtained on aliquots of the same sample by gas-liquid chromatography (III) and ultraviolet spectrophotometry (IV). For phenobarbital the correlation coefficients were I vs. II, 0.909; I vs. III, 0.947; II vs. III, 0.917; I vs. IV, 0.950; II vs. IV, 0.953. For diphenylhydantoin the correlation coefficients were I vs. II, 0.953; I vs. III, 0.951; II vs. III, 0.957; I vs. IV, 0.862; II vs. IV, 0.898. The immunoassays can be substituted for liquid chromatography or ultraviolet spectrophotometry without changing the resulting clinical interpretations.
