Abstract
The determination of 9-α-fluoro-16-α-methylprednisolone (dexamethasone) in drugs using isotope dilution method is described. Dexamethasone is tritiated with tritium-labelled acetic acid and in the course of the isotopic dilution the activity of tritium is measured with a liquid scintillator.
