Abstract A method for measuring the plasma concentration of histochrome is described. Echinochrome, a naturally occurring polyhydroxynaphthoquinone with antioxidant and cardioprotective activities, is the active ingredient of histochrome. Plasma histochrome concentration is measured in patients with acute myocardial infarction. This method can be used for pharmacokinetic analysis.
