Analysis of plasma and synovial fluid required only 0.5 ml of the sample. The sample was washed with diethyl ether and extracted with diethyl ether-chloroform (2:1). The extracted compounds were injected onto a reversed-phase column (RP-2) and absorbance was measured at 313 nm. The standard curves in plasma were found to be linear for both tolmetin and the metabolite at concentrations from 0.04 to 10.0 microgram/ml. Urine samples (0.5 ml) were diluted (1:1) with methanol containing the internal standard and were directly injected onto the reversed-phase (RP-2) column. Standard curves of tolmetin and metabolite in urine were linear in the range 5-300 microgram/ml. Serum and synovial fluid concentrations of tolmetin and its metabolite in patients receiving multiple doses of tolmetin sodium were determined using the assay procedure.
