Popis: A simple one-step method is established for plasma determination of ibuprofen and its pharmacokinetic study. The method involves simple sample pre-treatment by dilution, rapid separation by ultrafiltration (UF) and online sensitive detection by chemiluminescence (CL) based on significant intensity enhancement of ibuprofen on the weak CL of potassium permanganate and sodium sulphite in an acidic system. The calibration curve for ibuprofen is linear in the range 0.1–50.0 µg/mL in rat plasma. Average recoveries of ibuprofen at 0.80, 12.0 and 40.0 µg/mL amounted to 98.0 ± 4.2%, 101.2 ± 3.6% and 99.3 ± 5.4%, respectively. Standard deviations of intra- and inter-day measurement precision and accuracy are within ±10.0%. The detection limit for ibuprofen is 10.0 µg/L in plasma samples. Pharmacokinetic study of ibuprofen by the validated method shows that the mean plasma drug concentration–time course confirms to a classical two-compartment open model with first-order absorption. The proposed method will be an alternative for pre-clinical pharmacokinetic study of ibuprofen and other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
