A simple, sensitive, specific and reproducible method for the determination of corticosterone concentrations in rat serum using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with fluorimetric detection is described. Corticosterone is detectable down to 0.1 ng injected onto the HPLC column. Cortisol is used as an internal standard. Ethyl acetate was used for both initial serum corticosteroid extraction and the subsequent fluorophore extraction after sulfuric acid hydrolysis; thus sulfuric acid does not enter the HPLC system. The resultant fluorophores for both corticosterone and cortisol are stable for at least two weeks at ambient temperature not requiring storage at -20 degrees C. The procedure is highly suitable for use with HPLC systems utilising automatic sample injectors. The method is specific for corticosterone; dexamethasone, cortisone and gonadal steroids are not detectable and do not interfere in this assay.
