Cefotaxime was derivatised with 1,2-naphthoquinone-4-sulphonate (NQS),
extracted into solid-phase cartridges (C-18) and detected using a UV-
visible detection system. Optimum conditions for this new procedure we
re: hydrogencarbonate-carbonate buffer, pH 10.5, 5-min reaction time a
t 25 degrees C and an NQS concentration of 7.1.10(-3) mol l(-1). The a
ccuracy and the precision of the liquid-solid procedure were tested. T
he procedure was used to measure cefotaxime in pharmaceutical and urin
e samples. The results obtained were contrasted with those reported fo
r a HPLC method for urine samples. The generalized H-point standard ad
ditions method was used to measure cefotaxime in urine samples. (C) 19
