Cytosine arabinoside (Ara-C) is widely used to induce remission in adult granulocytic leukemia. High doses can be infused in refractory leukemia or in relapse. After injection, Ara-C is quickly metabolized to uracil arabinoside (Ara-U), the main inactive metabolite. We here described a micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography (MECC) method to simultaneously determine Ara-C/Ara-U in human serum using 6-O-methylguanine as an internal standard. The assay was linear from 6.25 to 200 microg/ml with a quantification limit between 3 and 6 microg/ml. The analytical precision was satisfactory between 2 and 4.3% (within-run) and 3.7 and 7.3% (between-runs). This assay was applied to the analysis of serum from acute granulocytic leukemia patient treated by high doses cytarabine (3 g/m2 body surface).
