| Summary: | In this study Dispersive liquid-liquid micro extraction (DLLME) coupled with High performance liquid chromatography was applied for the determination of Gemfibrozil in water, drug`s matrix and biological liquids (human plasma and urine). In this method, the appropriate mixture of extraction solvent (200 μl chlorophorm) and disperser solvent (1 ml methanol) are injected rapidly into the aqueous sample (10.0 ml) by syringe, cloudy solution is formed that consisted of fine particles of extraction solvent which is dispersed entirely into aqueous phase. The mixture was centrifuged and the extraction solvent is sedimented on the bottom of the conical test tube. 50 μl of the sedimented phase is puted in a vial and it`s solvent is evaporated. Then 1ml methanol injected to vial and 20 μL of it injected into the HPLC for separation and determination of Gemfibrozil. Some important parameters, such as kind of extraction and disperser solvent, volume of them, extraction time, pH and ionic strength of the aqueous feed solution were optimized. Under the optimum conditions, the enrichment factors and extraction recoveries were 10 and 93.64%. The linear range was (0.1-100.0 mgl-1), limit of detection was 12.3 mgl-1. The relative standard deviations (RSD) for 2 mgl-1 of Gemfibrozil in water were 1.3%, (n=10).
