Abstract
A direct spectrophotometric procedure for the determination of theophy lline in plasma is proposed. This procedure is based on the apparent c ontent curves method and it is not necessary to know the nature and co ntents of interferent substances. Bias errors introduced by plasma and metabolites are avoided. The results obtained are in agreement with t hose provided by an immunofluoroassay used as a reference method.
