Abstract: A high-performance liquid chromatography method has been developed for the determination of metformin in human serum. The separation and quantitation are achieved on a 150-cm Luna C18 column using a mobile phase of 60:40% v/v 10mM sodium phosphate buffer containing 10 mM SDS (pH 5.0) and acetonitrile at a flow rate of 0.5mL/min with detection of metformin at 226 nm. Recoveries found from a solid-phase extraction (SPE) method for metformin in human serum ranged from 92.4-100.5%. The highest recovery was found using a Phenyl SPE cartridge eluted with 0.75mL ACN while other cartridges yielded lower recoveries.
