Assay of 6‐thioguanine in human plasma. [PDF]
1. A fluorimetric method has been developed for measuring therapeutic concentrations of 6‐thioguanine in human plasma. The drug was measured as an oxidized derivative, guanine 6‐sulphonate. 2. 6‐thioguanine was extracted from plasma by a novel procedure which isolated the drug from an interfering plasma components. This method involved the formation of
