pubmed-article:709839 | pubmed:abstractText | We compared measurement of plasma nortriptyline by a recently developed radioimmunoassay technique with values obtained by traditional gas chromatography. The coefficient of correlation (r) was 0.98 for 84 samples from 21 controlled patients; for a separate series of 45 samples from 34 patients who were receiving in addition other medication, r was 0.96. Use of radioimmunoassay in the routine determination of plasma nortriptyline concentration is discussed. | lld:pubmed |
