Abstract

A sensitive, specific and rapid high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) procedure has been developed for the detection and determination of urine levels of 1- and 2- naphtols. Urine samples were adjusted to pH 1.5 and extracted with dichloromethane. HPLC on a Micropak CN-10 column with a fixed wavelength U.V. detector (254nm) and hexane: dichloromethane: isopropyl alco- hol (89:10:1) as solvent system allowed the measurement of 1-naph- thol at l00nng ml-I and 2-naphtholat 500ng ml-l levels.
