Description

General description

Phenobarbital is the oldest and most widely used barbiturate. The drug is an anticonvulsant approved for treatment of all seizure types with the exception of absence seizures. This certified solution standard is suitable as starting material for the preparation of calibrators and controls in phenobarbital testing by GC/MS or LC-MS/MS.

Application

• Fabrication of a Surface Molecularly Imprinted Polymer Membrane: Phenobarbital is utilized in the development of molecularly imprinted polymer membranes for the selective separation and extraction of various pharmaceutical compounds, enhancing the precision and efficiency of drug monitoring in clinical settings. This application leverages the specific binding properties of Phenobarbital to improve sample preparation techniques for complex biological matrices (Zhao et al., 2024).


• An Isotope Dilution-Liquid Chromatography-Tandem Mass Spectrometry-Based Reference Measurement Procedure: Phenobarbital′s role in establishing reference measurement procedures underscores its importance in ensuring the accuracy and reliability of drug quantification in clinical laboratories. This application supports the standardization of laboratory measurements, critical for patient care and therapeutic monitoring (Schierscher et al., 2024).
