The nitrogen-specific detector for gas chromatography consists of a non-volatile rubidium silicate bead, around which nitrogen-containing compounds are pyrolyzed. Speed, sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, small sample size and minumum sample handling are characteristics of the nitrogen detector that render it superior to conventional gas chromatographic detectors. The detector has been utilized to effect a simple and rapid quantitation of allobarbital, amobarbital, butabarbital, heptabarbital, pentabarbital, phenobarbital and secobarbital, plus the anticonvulsants diphenylhydantoin and primidone. Extraction of the drugs from acidified serum into organic solvent containing internal standard is followed by oncolumn methylation with methanolic trimethylphenyl ammonium hydroxide. The drugs, separated on a column of 3 percent OV-101 on Gas-Chrom Q, 100-120 mesh are readily quantitated by simple calculations based on peak-height ratios. Therapeutic drug monitoring is discussed in relation to recent concepts of drug-protein binding, drug-drug interactions, drug biotransformation and problems of multiple drug therapy.
