Abstract
Memantine is an N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor antagonist recommended for treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. Due to the lack of chromophores/fluorophores in memantine molecule, this work focuses on a novel procedure for memantine-fluorescent derivative formation enabling it to be monitored by a fluorescence detector. 4-(N-Chloroformylmethyl-N-methyl)amino-7-N,N-dimethylaminosulphonyl 2,1,3-benzoxadiazole (DBD-COCl) was chosen as a fluorescent probe since the carbonyl chloride of DBD-COCl could easily react with the amine on memantine to form the fluorescent derivative. The derivatization was achieved at 5 : 1 of DBD-COCl and memantine, at 60°C for 50 min. Structure elucidation from mass spectrometry and infrared spectroscopy spectra confirmed the amide bond of memantine-DBD-COCl. The derivative was stable up to 24 h and could be monitored by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled with a fluorescence detector using a VertiSep GES C18 column, acetonitrile and water (80 : 20) as the mobile phase with a flow rate of 1 mL/min using the excitation and emission wavelengths at 430 and 520 nm, respectively. The derivative was eluted at 4.50 min and was separated from the DBD-COCl. Preliminary validation data reveals good linearity (r2≥0.99), repeatability (%RSD < 0.54) and accuracy (%Rbetween 94 and 119%) with a limit of detection of 0.79 μg/mL.

Abstract
Memantine is chemically a tricyclic amine and is used for Parkinson’s disease and movement disorders. Although several HPLC methods with different derivatization reagents have been developed for the determination of memantine in biological fluids, there are some complications which limit the use of these methods in routine analysis of memantine in in vitro tests. We established a simple, sensitive, precise, and accurate HPLC method for the quantification of memantine in dosage forms. Pre-column derivatization of memantine was performed with 1-fluoro-2,4-dinitrobenzene and the reaction product was separated on a Nova-Pak C18 column. A mixture of acetonitrile and sodium dihydrogenphosphate (pH 2.5; 0.05 M) (70: 30, v/v) was used as the mobile phase. UV detection was performed at 360 nm. Forced degradation studies were performed on a powdered tablet sample of memantine hydro-chloride using acidic (0.1 M hydrochloric acid), basic (0.1 M sodium hydroxide), oxidative (10% hydrogen peroxide), thermal (105°C), photolytic, and humidity conditions. Good linearity (r2=0.999) was obtained over the range of 1–12 μg mL−1 of memantine hydrochloride with acceptable within-day and between-day precision values in the range of 0.05–0.95%. The proposed method was used for the assay determination and dissolution rate study of memantine dosage forms with excellent specificity.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurological disorder and is the most frequent type of dementia among elderly people. Donepezil, rivastigmine, galantamine, tacrine and memantine are the US Food and Drug Administration approved oral drugs used in the treatment of AD. Quantitation of these drugs in various biological matrices and monitoring them in long-term treatment is essential to titer the dose of these drugs and ensure patient compliance. This review provides a comprehensive account of various HPLC and LC-MS/MS assays, which have been successfully employed to measure the drug levels in various biological matrices arising from preclinical and clinical studies. In addition, this review collates various considerations such as internal standard selection, extraction schemes, matrix effect, selectivity evaluation and optimization of mass spectrometric conditions to enable the development of sound bioanalytical methods for quantitation of Alzheimer's drugs. Overall LC-MS/MS methods have proven to be the choice of bioanalytical method for the quantification of Alzheimer's drugs in both preclinical and clinical studies. In conclusion, important features of LC-MS/MS methodology for Alzheimer's drugs include shortened analysis time, increased throughput, selectivity and lower cost of analysis.

Abstract
The purpose of the present work was to validate an accurate and precise high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method involving ultraviolet detection for the quantitative analysis of memantine hydrochloride. In order to analyze a molecule with no chromophoric groups that could be detected by a UV/visible detector, it was necessary to extract the drug and to perform a dansylation reaction that enabled the UV/visible detection of the derivatized molecule. Separation was carried out with a 150 mm Kromasil C18 column at room temperature. The detection response, at 218 nm, was found to be linear in the concentration range from 0.5 to 50 μg/mL. The method was validated for specificity, linearity, precision, accuracy, limit of detection, limit of quantification, and robustness. The limit of detection (LOD) was 0.144 μg/mL, and the limit of quantification (LOQ) was 0.437 μg/mL. The dansylated memantine complex was stable for at least five days in all the conditions evaluated. The potential use of this method has been demonstrated by the quantification of memantine hydrochloride contained in samples from the study of itsin vitrotransdermal permeation.

Abstract
A stability-indicating method has been developed and validated for the quantitative determination of memantine hydrochloride and its nonchromophoric impurities in drug substance and drug product using gas chromatography coupled with flame ionization detector (GC-FID). The stability-indicating nature of the method has been proved by establishing peak purity and confirming the mass balance of all samples by subjecting them to stress conditions like hydrolysis, oxidation, photolysis, and thermal degradation studies. The chromatographic separation was performed on a fused silica capillary (HP-5, 30 meter, 0.32 mm and 0.25 μm film thickness) column. The method validation results indicate that the method has acceptable specificity, accuracy, linearity, precision, robustness, and high sensitivity with detection limits and quantitation limits ranging from 0.001% to 0.01% and 0.004% to 0.03%, respectively. The effectiveness of the technique was demonstrated by analysis of different bulk sample of Memantine hydrochloride. The proposed GC-FID method was also found to be specific and selective for the analysis of commercial formulation samples.

Abstract
A simple, sensitive, and rapid HPLC-MS/MS method was developed and validated for quantitative estimation of memantine in human plasma. Chromatography was performed on Zorbax SB-C(18) (4.6 × 75 mm, 3.5 μm) column. Memantine (ME) and internal standard Memantine-d6(MED6) were extracted by using liquid-liquid extraction and analyzed by LC-ESI-MS/MS using multiple-reaction monitoring (MRM) mode. The assay exhibited a linear dynamic range of 50.00-50000.00 pg/ml for ME in human plasma. This method demonstrated an intra- and interday precision within the range of 2.1-3.7 and 1.4-7.8%, respectively. Further intra- and interday accuracy was within the range of 95.6-99.8 and 95.7-99.1% correspondingly. The mean recovery of ME and MED6 was 86.07 ± 6.87 and 80.31 ± 5.70%, respectively. The described method was successfully employed in bioequivalence study of ME in Indian male healthy human volunteers under fasting conditions.

Abstract
A sensitive, selective, simple and fast HPLC method based on the formation of derivative with fluorescamine was developed for the determination of memantine (ME) in human plasma. Separation was achieved on a CN column (200 mm×4.6 mm) using acetonitrile-10 mM orthophosphoric acid containing 1 mL/L triethylamine (45:55, v/v) at a flow rate of 1 mL/min. Emission and excitation wavelengths were 480 and 380 nm, respectively. Amantadine was used as an internal standard. Calibration graphs were rectilinear over the range of 1.0-100.0 ng/mL. Limit of detection and limit of quantification were found to be 0.3 and 1.0 ng/mL, respectively. Intra-day and inter-day relative standard deviation values were found to be <2.03%. Average recovery was also found to be around 94%. Proposed method was applied for the pharmacokinetic study in a healthy volunteer after a single oral administration of 20 mg of ME.

Abstract
A rapid, sensitive and reproducible HPLC method was developed and validated for the analysis of memantine in human plasma after derivatization with o-phthaldialdehyde (OPA) and fluorescence detection. Amantadine was used as internal standard. The derivatized memantine and amantadine were eluted in less than 10 min with no interference from endogenous plasma peaks. The analysis was carried out on a monolithic silica column (Chromolith Performance RP-18e, 100×4.6 mm). The mobile phase was composed of a mixture of acetonitrile and 0.025 M phosphate buffer (50:50, v/v, pH=4.6) with a flow rate of 2.5 mLmin−1. The excitation and emission wavelengths were set at 335 nm and 440 nm respectively. The assay enables the measurement of memantine for therapeutic drug monitoring with a lower quantification limit of 2 ngmL−1. The method involves simple extraction procedure and analytical recovery was 82.8± 0.9%. The calibration curve was linear over the concentration range 2–80 ngmL−1. The coefficients of variation for inter-day and intra-day assay were found to be less than 8%. The method was successfully applied to pharmacokinetic studies in humans.

Abstract
This present paper deals with the development and validation of a stability indicating high performance liquid chromatographic method for the quantitative determination of Memantine hydrochloride. Memantine hydrochloride was derivatized with 0.015 M 9-fluorenylmethyl chloroformate (FMOC) and 0.5 M borate buffer solution by keeping it at room temperature for about 20 minutes and the chromatographic separation achieved by injecting 10 μL of the derivatized mixture into a Waters HPLC system with photodiode array detector using a kromasil C18 column (150 × 4.6 mm), 5 μ. The mobile phase consisting of 80% acetonitrile and 20% phosphate buffer solution and a flow rate of 2 milliliter/minute. The Memantine was eluted at approximately 7.5 minutes. The volume of FMOC used in derivatization, concentration of FMOC and derivatization time was optimized and used. Forced degradation studies were performed on bulk sample of Memantine hydrochloride using acid (5.0 Normal (N) hydrochloric acid), base (1.0 N sodium hydroxide), oxidation (30% hydrogen peroxide), thermal (105°C), photolytic and humidity conditions. The developed LC method was validated with respect to specificity, precision (% RSD about 0.70%), linearity (linearity of range about 70–130 μg/mL), ruggedness (Overall % RSD about 0.35%), stability in analytical solution (Cumulative % RSD about 0.11% after 1450 min.) and robustness.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study consisted of 2 phases: development of a liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS) method for determination of memantine in human plasma and characterization of single-dose and multiple-dose pharmacokinetic profiles of memantine in healthy Chinese volunteers using the LC/MS method. METHODS An analytic method of LC/MS for determination of memantine in human plasma was developed and validated and was applied to this single-center, open-label, single-dose and multiple-dose pharmacokinetic study conducted in healthy native Chinese volunteers. Subjects were randomized to receive a single dose of 5, 10, or 20 mg of memantine to study the linear characteristics of pharmacokinetics, or a multiple dose of 5 mg once daily for 14 days to study the drug accumulation. The pharmacokinetic parameters calculated included C(max), T(max), AUC, t(1/2),mean residence time (MRT), maximum steady-state plasma concentration (C(ssmax)), minimum steady-state plasma concentration ((ssmin)), average steady-state plasma concentration (C(ssav)), and fluctuation percentage (DF). All values were expressed as mean (SD). Sequential blood samples were collected from 0 to 360 hours for single-dose pharmacokinetic determinations after the dose on day 1; in the multiple-dose pharmacokinetic arm, the sequential blood samples were also obtained from 0 to 360 hours on day 14 after collecting the predose samples at 0 hour on days 11, 12, and 13. Memantine concentrations in plasma were determined by LC/MS method. A calibration curve was constructed by 7 memantine concentrations and processed by least-squares linear regression analysis (w=1/x(2)). Safety assessments, including adverse events (AEs), were performed at all study visits. RESULTS The LC/MS method for determination of memantine in human plasma was developed and validated. The standard calibration curve for spiked human plasma containing memantine was linear in the concentration range of 0.2 to 200.0 ng/mL. The correlation coefficient was greater than 0.9960 (n = 6). The lower limit of quantification for memantine in human plasma was 0.2 ng/mL, and the intraday and interday coefficients of variation were all lower than 15%. The mean recoveries of the 0.4, 20.0, and 180.0 ng/mL levels were 78.87%, 81.55%, and 81.98%, respectively. The coefficients of variation were all lower than 15% after being treated at room temperature for 24 hours, for 45 days at -40 degrees , and within 3 freeze-and-thaw cycles in plasma samples. Forty native Chinese subjects (10 [5 men, 5 women] subjects per group; mean [SD] age, 21.6 [1.6] [range, 19-27] years; weight, 63.0 [7.7] [range, 52-82] kg; height, 170.0 [7.0] [range, 155-185] cm) were enrolled in the study. After single-dose oral administration, the main pharmacokinetic parameters found for memantine at doses of 5, 10, and 20 mg were as follows: C(max), 6.20 (0.75), 11.60 (1.95), and 25.34 (8.34) ng/mL, respectively; T(max), 5.70 (1.64), 6.00 (1.33), and 6.89 (1.41) h; AUC(0-t), 486.19 (80.00), 889.32 (239.49), and 1772.91 (784.07) ng x h/mL; AUC(0-infinity), 540.05 (89.68), 932.07 (230.82), and 1853.29 (776.85) ng x h/mL; t(1/2), 66.86 (11.75), 63.57 (12.58), and 62.06 (9.26) h; and MRT, 99.37 (16.96), 91.73 (18.16), and 89.56 (13.77) h. The main pharmacokinetic parameters found for memantine at doses of 5 mg once daily for 14 days were as follows: T(max), 6.80 (2.46) h; C(ssmax), 19.69 (2.00) ng/mL; C(ssmin), 12.76 (2.80) ng/mL; C(ssav), 16.10 (2.46) ng/mL; t(1/2), 64.57 (15.78) h; MRT, 93.17 (23.38) h; AUC(ss),386.37 (59.00) ng x h/mL; and DF, 44.47% (15.27%). One female subject withdrew from the study after a single 20-mg dose due to an AE (dizziness and vomiting); no other subjects experienced an AE. CONCLUSIONS In these healthy Chinese subjects, the t(1/2) and MRT values were fixed and did not increase following the increased dose, and the AUC(infinity) and C(max) values increased following the increasing dosage of memantine. Linear pharmacokinetics was found at doses from 5 to 20 mg. The multiple-dose pharmacokinetic parameters (other than C(max)) were nearly similar compared with the single-dose administration. The maximum plasma concentration of memantine after multiple-dose administration was greater than that after a single-dose administration, suggesting memantine accumulation with multiple-dose administration of 5 mg and requiring further confirmation in larger studies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Although serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SRIs) are approved for the treatment of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), most OCD patients who have received an adequate SRI trial continue to have clinically significant OCD symptoms. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of augmenting SRIs with exposure and ritual prevention, an established cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) for OCD. METHOD A randomized, controlled trial was conducted at two academic outpatient clinics to compare the effects of augmenting SRIs with exposure and ritual prevention versus stress management training, another form of CBT. Participants were adult outpatients (N=108) with primary OCD and a Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale total score > or = 16 despite a therapeutic SRI dose for at least 12 weeks prior to entry. Participants received 17 sessions of CBT (either exposure and ritual prevention or stress management training) twice a week while continuing SRI pharmacotherapy. RESULTS Exposure and ritual prevention was superior to stress management training in reducing OCD symptoms. At week 8, significantly more patients receiving exposure and ritual prevention than patients receiving stress management training had a decrease in symptom severity of at least 25% (based on Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale scores) and achieved minimal symptoms (defined as a Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale score < or = 12). CONCLUSIONS Augmentation of SRI pharmacotherapy with exposure and ritual prevention is an effective strategy for reducing OCD symptoms. However, 17 sessions were not sufficient to help most of these patients achieve minimal symptoms.

Abstract
A novel precolumn derivatization method is described for the quantitative determination of amantadine, rimantadine and memantine in biological samples by HPLC with UV detection. The derivatization was performed at room temperature using anthraquinone-2-sulfonyl chloride (ASC) as reagent for only 10 min and without postderivatization treatment to inactivate excess reagent. The derivatives were analyzed by isocratic HPLC with a UV detector at 256 nm on a Lichrosper C18 column. The linear range for the determination of three drugs spiked in plasma (0.2 ml) was 0.05-5.0 microg/ml for amantadine and rimantadine, 0.05-2.0 microg/ml for memantine, respectively. The limits of detection and quantification were 20 and 50 ng/ml for the analytes, respectively. Application of the method to the analysis of amantadine, rimantadine and memantine in rat plasma and pharmacokinetic studies are demonstrated and proved feasible.

Abstract
A simple, sensitive and specific liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method for the quantification of memantine (I) in human plasma is presented. Sample preparation consisted of the addition of amantadine (II) as internal standard (IS), liquid-liquid extraction in basic conditions using a mixture of diethyl ether-chloroform (7:3, v/v) as extracting solvent, followed by centrifugation, solvent evaporation and sample reconstitution in methanol. Both I and II (internal standard) were analyzed using a C18 column and a mobile phase composed of methanol-water-formic acid (80:20:0.1, v/v/v). Eluted compounds were monitored using positive mode electrospray (ES) tandem mass spectrometry. The analyses were carried out by selected reaction monitoring (SRM) using the parent to daughter combinations of m/z 180>163 (memantine) and m/z 152>135 (amantadine). The peak areas from the analyte and IS were used for quantification of I. The achieved limit of quantification (LOQ) was 0.1 ng/mL; the assay exhibited a linear dynamic range of 0.1-50.0 ng/mL with a determination coefficient (r2) of at least 0.98. Validation results on linearity, specificity, accuracy, precision and stability, as well as on application to the analysis of samples taken up to 320 h after oral administration of 20mg (two 10mg capsules) of I in healthy volunteers demonstrated the applicability to bioequivalence studies.

Abstract
A sensitive liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-MS) method is developed and validated for rapid determination of amantadine in human plasma. Desloratadine was used as the internal standard (I.S.). Human plasma (0.2 mL) was first alkalified with 100 microL of sodium hydroxide (3M) and then extracted with 1 mL of n-hexane containing 1% isopropanol (v/v) and 10% dichloromethane (v/v) by vortex-mixer for 3 min. The mixture was centrifuged at 14,000 rpm for 5 min. The supernatant was evaporated to dryness and the residue was dissolved in mobile phase. Samples were separated using a Thermo Hypersil-HyPURITYC18 reversed-phase column (150 mm x 2.1 mm i.d., 5 microm). Mobile phase consisted of methanol-acetonitrile-20 mM ammonium acetate (45:10:45, v/v/v) containing 1% acetic acid with pH 4.0. Amantadine and I.S. were measured by electrospray ion source in positive selective ion monitoring mode. The good linearity ranged from 3.9 to 1000 ng/mL and the lowest limit of quantification was 3.9 ng/mL. The extraction efficiencies were approximately 70% and recoveries of method ranged from 98.53 to 103.24%. The intra-day relative standard deviations (R.S.D.) were less than 8.43% and inter-day R.S.D. below 10.59%. The quality control samples were stable when kept at room temperature for 12h, at -20 degrees C for 30 days and after four freeze/thaw cycles. The method has been successfully used to evaluation of the pharmacokinetics and bioequivalence of amantadine in 20 healthy volunteers after an oral dose of 100 mg amantadine.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is associated with increased production of new neurons (neurogenesis), which may be directed at brain repair. However, the effect of drugs used to treat AD on neurogenesis is unknown. We administered tacrine, galantamine or memantine to mouse cerebral cortical cultures in vitro, and to mice in vivo, and measured neurogenesis by labeling newborn cells with bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) and confirming their neuronal lineage by cell-type-specific protein expression. All three drugs increased BrdU incorporation into cortical cultures in vitro by up to 40%, and increased BrdU labeling of cells in neuroproliferative regions of the adult mouse brain in vivo by 26-45%. BrdU labeling was associated with neuronal markers, such as Hu and betaIII tubulin. Thus, drugs used to treat AD increase cerebral neurogenesis both in vitro and in vivo, which may contribute to their therapeutic effects.

Abstract
Previous work has suggested that maintenance on the noncompetitive N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) antagonist, memantine, increased the subjective effects of smoked cocaine in experienced cocaine users. To determine whether this phenomenon occurs in opioid-dependent individuals, eight (seven male, one female) methadone-maintained cocaine smokers participated in a 47-day inpatient and outpatient study to assess the effects of memantine on smoked cocaine self-administration, subjective effects, and cardiovascular responses. The participants were maintained on memantine (0 mg and 20 mg daily) for 7-10 days prior to laboratory testing, using a double-blind crossover design. Under each medication condition during inpatient phases, participants smoked a sample dose of cocaine base (0, 12, 25, and 50 mg) once, and were subsequently given five choice opportunities, 14 min apart, to self-administer that dose of cocaine or receive a merchandise voucher (US 5.00 dollars). Each cocaine dose was tested twice under each medication condition, and the order of medication condition and cocaine dose were varied systematically. Memantine maintenance did not alter the subjective or reinforcing effects of cocaine. Several cardiovascular responses, however, including peak and initial diastolic pressures following cocaine, were significantly greater during memantine maintenance, although these elevations were not clinically significant. Taken together, these findings corroborate earlier data suggesting that this dose of memantine will not be helpful in the pharmacotherapy of cocaine abuse.

Abstract
A simple and sensitive liquid chromatographic method is described for the analysis of amantadine and memantine. The method is based on the derivatization of amantadine and memantine extracted from alkalified samples with (2-naphthoxy)acetyl chloride at mild conditions. The resulting derivatives were analyzed by isocratic HPLC with a fluorimetric detector (lambdaex, 227 nm; lambdaem, 348 nm). The linear range for the determination of amantadine or memantine spiked in urine (1.0 ml) was 1.0-10.0 nmol with a detection limit of about 0.2 nmol (S/N = 3; injected sample 20 microl). Only amantadine preparations are available on our local market, and application of the method to the analysis of amantadine in formulation and in the urine of a dosed subject was demonstrated and proved feasible. Quantitation of AT in tablets or capsules is capable in the linear range of 2.0-50.0 microM. Toluene was used as the solvent for extracting amantadine or memantine in samples and the resulting toluene extract was directly subjected to subsequent derivatization without solvent replacement leading to a simpler analytical procedure.

Abstract
A simple and sensitive fluorimetric method for determination of antiviral drugs: ribavirin, acyclovir, and amantadine hydrochloride has been developed. The method was based on the oxidation of these drugs by cerium(IV) in presence of perchloric acid and subsequent monitoring the fluorescence of the induced cerium(III) at lambdaexcitation 255 and lambdaemission 355 nm. Different variables affecting the reaction conditions such as the concentrations of cerium(IV), type and concentration of acid medium, reaction time, temperature, and the diluting solvents were carefully studied and optimized. Under the optimum conditions, linear relationships with good correlation coefficients (0.9978-0.9996) were found between the relative fluorescence intensity and the concentrations of the investigated drugs in the range of 50-1400 ng ml-1. The assay limits of detection and quantitation were 20-49, and 62-160 ng ml-1, respectively. The precision of the method was satisfactory; the values of relative standard deviations did not exceed 1.58%. No interference could be observed from the excipients commonly present in dosage forms. The proposed method was successfully applied to the analysis of the investigated drugs in pure and pharmaceutical dosage forms with good accuracy and precision; the recovery percentages ranged from 99.2 to 101.2+/-0.48-1.30%. The results obtained by the proposed fluorimetric method were comparable with those obtained by the official method stated in the United States Pharmacopoeia.

Abstract
A sensitive and selective liquid chromatography-mass spectrometric method was validated for the determination of free memantine in melanin binding studies. The sources of melanin studied were sepia, synthetic and bovine melanin. Memantine was chromatographed on a reversed-phase column (Prodigy 5 microm, ODS(3), 100 A, 100 x 4.6 mm) using gradient elution with mobile phases of 0.1% formic acid in deionised water and 0.1% formic acid in methanol at a flow-rate of 0.8 ml/min. The mode of ionisation was atmospheric pressure-electrospray and detection by single ion monitoring of the memantine ion m/z 180. Validation of the method showed that the assay was linear from 0.1 to 1200 nM and 0.5 to 1200 nM memantine in deionised water and phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), respectively. Accuracy for sample preparations in deionised water was between 80 and 108% and between 80 and 123% for PBS. For both media, intra- and inter-day precision was below 1% for retention time and below 5% for analyte peak area. At the LLOQ, the variation of peak area was less than 17%. Binding of memantine to melanin was measured indirectly by determining the unbound fraction of memantine. After incubation of melanin with memantine, the sample was centrifuged and filtered to separate the memantine-melanin complex effectively from suspension. The filtrate was then assayed for free memantine from which the extent of binding was then calculated.

Abstract
In continuing the search for fluorescent reagents for analytical derivatization in chromatography, we found a simple chemical, (2-naphthoxy)acetyl chloride, with potential fluorophore/chromophore characteristics for the highly sensitive detection of analytes with an amino function. The reagent has an auxochrome (a substituted alkoxy moiety) attached to the fluorophoric/chromophoric naphthalene system, resulting in favorable spectrophotometric properties. The reagent can be easily prepared from (2-naphthoxy)acetic acid and has been used in organic synthesis; it is initially introduced as a fluorescent reagent to derivatise amantadine and memantine (amino pharmaceuticals) as model analytes. The resulting naphthoxy derivatives of the drugs can be analyzed at sub-microM levels by HPLC with fluorimetric detection (excitation wavelength 227 nm, emission wavelength 348 nm). Application of the reagent to the fluorimetric derivatization of important biological amines for sensitive detection can be expected.

Abstract
An infrared reflection-absorption (IR/RA) method was developed to detect aromatic organic compounds in aqueous solutions where the required sample volume can be as low as 50 microL. Two aluminum plates were used to form the sampling cell for the detection of small amount of aqueous samples. One plate was used as an IR reflection substrate and a second plate, in which several holes were drilled, was placed tightly on the top of the reflection plate to form cavities for sampling. The cavities were further coated with hydrophobic film. After the hydrophobic film dried, a certain amount of aqueous sample was injected to the cavity. Analytes in the aqueous solution were attracted into the hydrophobic film through the solid phase micro-extraction principle. After residual water was removed from the cavity, organic compounds absorbed by the hydrophobic film could be sensed using IR radiation based on the reflection-absorption mode. To investigate the applicability of this type of sensing method for small-volume detection, factors such as the volume of the aqueous solution, the sample concentration, size of the cavity and the sensitivity of this method were investigated. An examination of the linear relationship between the signals and the analyte concentrations showed regression coefficients that were generally in the range of 0.992 to 0.999 for the examined analytes in the concentration range of 10 to 100 ppm. Under the condition that the sample volume was 100 microL and based on three-times the spectra noise level, the calculated detection limits for this method were found at around 1 ppm for the examined analytes.

Abstract
A sensitive and specific method for the determination of memantine in human plasma is presented. Memantine was extracted from plasma and derivatized to the pentafluorobenzoyl derivative in a one-step procedure avoiding any sample concentration steps. Amantadine was used as an internal standard. The compounds were measured by gas chromatography/negative ion chemical ionization mass spectrometry without any further processing. Using this detection mode, the fragment ions at m/z 353 and 325 were obtained at high relative abundance. Calibration graphs were linear over the range 0.117-30 ng ml(-1). At the limit of quantification (LOQ), the inter-assay precision was 2.00% and the intra-assay variability was 3.22%. The accuracy at the LOQ showed deviations of -1.42% (intra-assay) and -2.47% (inter-assay). The method is rugged, rapid and robust and was applied to the batch determination of memantine during pharmacokinetic profiling of the drug.

Abstract
A review of the published analytical methodology for the tricyclic antiviral (TAV) drugs is presented. While amantadine and rimantadine are the only two approved drugs for the prophylaxis and treatment of the influenza A virus, amantadine has also been approved for the treatment of Parkinson's disease. In addition, a few structurally related compounds are finding important clinical applications in other central nervous system-related disorders. To effectively evaluate the pharmacokinetics, biotransformations, stability, and other critical parameters that are necessary for pre-clinical and clinical studies, analytical methodology that conforms to the rigors of regulatory requirements must be developed and made available. This review discusses the analytical methods used in the determination of amantadine, rimantadine, tromantadine and memantine and the pre-clinical and clinical application of these techniques.
