BIOANALYSISIdentification of an unknown medicine in
serum through liquid-liquid extraction and
solid phase extraction
Tymo Zwakenberg S4326253
30-06-2023
ABSTRACT
Liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) and solid phase extraction (SPE) are essential techniques in analytical
chemistry for the separation and purification. In this experiment, it was tried to identify an unknown
medicine sample and evaluate the extraction results by means of statistical analysis. The experiment
consists of a mixed-mode solid phase, combining a hydrophobic portion and a cation-exchange
portion. The drug was identified as oxazepam based on pH measurements, extraction patterns, and
comparison with known drugs. Confirmation was obtained through the use of an internal standard
and recovery calculation, which indicated a concentration recovery rate of 100.03%-104.50%.
Statistical analysis was performed to determine the relationship between the concentration of the
unknown drug (X) and the response (Y). The regression analysis showed a significant regression
relationship. Similarly, the confidence interval and hypothesis tests for the intercept (α) indicated that
the line did not pass through the origin. The goodness of fit test showed that the regression model
adequately explains the variability in the response variable. The coefficient of determination (R-
squared) indicated that 99.162% of the variance in Y can be explained by the regression model,
indicating a strong relationship between X and Y. However, the lack of fit test showed the possibility
of a nonlinear relationship or the presence of other variables.
Overall, this experiment demonstrated the successful application of LLE and SPE techniques for the
extraction and identification of an unknown medicine sample. The statistical analysis provided
valuable insights into the relationship between the concentration of the unknown drug and the
response, highlighting the significance of the regression model with some contradictions.
