Selected AbstractsTiclopidine quantification in human plasma by high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to electrospray tandem mass spectrometry.JOURNAL OF MASS SPECTROMETRY (INCORP BIOLOGICAL MASS SPECTROMETRY), Issue 12 2004Application to bioequivalence study Abstract A rapid, sensitive and specific method to quantify ticlopidine in human plasma using clopidogrel as the internal standard (IS) is described. The analyte and the IS were extracted from acidified plasma by liquid,liquid extraction using diethyl ether,hexane (80 : 20, v/v). The extracts were analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to electrospray tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC/MS/MS). Chromatography was performed isocratically on a Jones Genesis C8 4 µm analytical column (150 × 4.1 mm i.d.). The method had a chromatographic run time of 3.0 min and a linear calibration curve over the range 1.0,1000 ng ml,1 (r2 > 0.999427). The limit of quantification was 1.0 ng ml,1. This HPLC/MS/MS procedure was used to assess the bioequivalence of two ticlopidine 250 mg tablet formulations (ticlopidine test formulation from Apotex do Brasil, Brazil, and Ticlid from Sanofi-Synthelabo, standard reference formulation). A single 250 mg dose of each formulation was administered to healthy volunteers. The study was conducted using an open, randomized, two-period crossover design with a 2 week washout interval. Since the 90% confidence interval for Cmax and area under the curve ratios were all inside the 80,125% interval proposed by the US Food and Drug Administration, it was concluded that ticlopidine formulation from Apotex do Brasil is bioequivalent to Ticlid formulation with respect to both the rate and the extent of absorption.

[source] Automated determination of venlafaxine in human plasma by on-line SPE-LC-MS/MS.JOURNAL OF SEPARATION SCIENCE, JSS, Issue 4 2009Application to a bioequivalence study Abstract A new automated SPE-LC-ESI-MS/MS method was developed and validated to quantify venlafaxine in human plasma using fluoxetine as an internal standard. The analytes were automatically extracted from plasma by C18 SPE cartridges, separated on a C8 RP column and analyzed by MS in the multiple reaction-monitoring (MRM) mode. The method has a chromatographic run time of 4.0 min and a linear calibration curve over the range of 0.25,200 ng/mL (r >0.997). The between-run precisions, based on the percent RSD for replicate quality controls (0.75; 80, and 200 ng/mL), were < 8.5% for all concentrations. The between-run accuracies, based on the percent relative error, were < 4.0%. This method was successfully employed in a bioequivalence study of two venlafaxine capsule formulations (test formulation from Eurofarma (Brazil) and Efexor XR, reference formulation, from Wyeth-Whitehall, Brazil) in 48 healthy volunteers of both sexes who received a single 150 mg dose of each formulation. More than 3000 samples were analyzed eliminating the analyst's exposure to hazardous organic solvents normally employed in off-line liquid,liquid extractions. The 90% confidence interval (CI) of the individual ratio geometric mean for Test/Reference was 91.6,103.4% for AUC0,48 h and 102.2,112.6% for Cmax. Since both 90% CI for AUC0,48 h and Cmax were included in the 80,125% interval proposed by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Brazilian National Health Surveillance Agency (ANVISA), the test formulation was considered bioequivalent to Efexor XR according to both the rate and extent of absorption. [source] Evaluation of mobile phase, ion pairing, and temperature influence on an HILIC-MS/MS method for L -arginine and its dimethylated derivatives detectionJOURNAL OF SEPARATION SCIENCE, JSS, Issue 13 2008Giuseppe Paglia Abstract Asymmetric NG,,NG -dimethylarginine (ADMA) increases in diseases such as renal failure, diabetes mellitus, and hypercholesterolemia. The feasibility and utility of a hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC) method for the separation of free L -arginine (Arg), ADMA, and symmetric NG,,NG, -dimethylarginine (SDMA) on a typical silica column were explored and the impact of some experimental parameters on the chromatographic behavior of these analytes was investigated. The effect of water and TFA content in mobile phase and of column temperature was investigated during the development of a fast and simple HILIC-MS/MS method that might be suitable for the quantification of free Arg, ADMA, and SDMA in plasma for routine analysis. Our results show that a good compromise between efficiency and peak shape with acceptable retention and total chromatographic run time is achieved using an ACN/water (90:10) mobile phase with TFA% as additive ranging from 0.015 to 0.025% and column temperature ranging from 25 to 30°C. [source] Simultaneous determination of six herbal components in intestinal perfusate by high-performance liquid chromatographyBIOMEDICAL CHROMATOGRAPHY, Issue 8 2009Zhanguo Wang Abstract An effective, accurate and reliable HPLC with UV detection method was developed and validated for quantitation of six components: baicalin, berberine hydrochloride, quercetin, kaempferol, isorhamnetin and baicalein in intestinal perfusate using rotundin as an internal standard. The chromatographic separation was performed on a Welchrom-C18 column (250 × 4.6 mm i.d. with 5.0 µm particle size) with a mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile, water, phosphoric acid and triethylamine (30:70:0.2:0.1,v/v) at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min and a UV detection at 270 nm. The method had a chromatographic run time of 30 min and excellent linear behavior over the investigated concentration ranges observed with the values of r higher than 0.99 for all the analytes. The lower limit of quantification of the analytical method was 0.09 µg/mL for berberine hydrochloride, quercetin, kaempferol and baicalein and 0.18 µg/mL for baicalin and isorhamnetin. The intra- and inter-day precisions measured at three concentration levels were all less than 10% for all analytes. The bias ranged from ,6.91 to 4.33%. The validated method has been successfully applied to investigate the rat intestine absorption profiles of baicalin, berberine hydrochloride, quercetin, kaempferol, isorhamnetin and baicalein.

[source] Simultaneous determination of mifepristone and monodemethyl-mifepristone in human plasma by liquid chromatography,tandem mass spectrometry method using levonorgestrel as an internal standard: application to a pharmacokinetic studyBIOMEDICAL CHROMATOGRAPHY, Issue 1 2009Cheng Tang Abstract A rapid and sensitive liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method was developed and validated to simultaneously determine mifepristone and monodemethyl-mifepristone in human plasma using levonorgestrel as the internal standard (IS). After solid-phase extraction of the plasma samples, mifepristone, monodemethyl-mifepristone and the IS were subjected to LC-MS/MS analysis using electro-spray ionization (ESI) in the multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode. Chromatographic separation was performed on an XTERRA MS C18 column (150 × 2.1 mm i.d., 5 µm). The method had a chromatographic run time of 4.5 min and linear calibration curves over the concentration ranges of 5,2000 ng/mL for mifepristone and monodemethyl-mifepristone. The recoveries of the method were found to be 94.5,103.7% for mifepristone and 70.7,77.3% for monodemethyl-mifepristone. The method had a lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) of 5.0 ng/mL and a lower limit of detection (LOD) of 1.0 ng/mL for both mifepristone and monodemethyl-mifepristone. The intra- and inter-batch precision was less than 15% for all quality control samples at concentrations of 10, 100 and 1000 ng/mL. These results indicate that the method was efficient with a short run time (4.5 min) and acceptable accuracy, precision and sensitivity. The validated LC-MS/MS method was successfully used in a pharmacokinetic study in healthy female volunteers after oral administration of 25 mg mifepristone tablet.

[source] A sensitive method for determination of salvianolic acid A in rat plasma using liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometryBIOMEDICAL CHROMATOGRAPHY, Issue 7 2008Lixia Pei Abstract Salvianolic acid A (SAA), a major effective constituent of Salvia miltiorrhizas, is widely used in traditional Chinese medicine. A sensitive rapid analytical method was established and validated for SAA in rat plasma, which was further applied to assess the pharmacokinetics of SAA in rats receiving a single oral dose of SAA. The method used liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry in multiple reaction monitoring mode with chloramphenicol as the internal standard. A simple liquid,liquid extraction based on ethyl acetate was employed. The combination of a simple sample cleanup and short chromatographic run time (3 min) increased the throughput of the method substantially. The method was validated over the range 1.4,1000 ng/mL with a correlation coefficient >0.99. The lower limit of quantification was 1.4 ng/mL for SAA in plasma. Intra- and inter-day accuracies for SAA were 95,113 and 98,107%, and the inter-day precision was less than 12%. This method is more sensitive and faster than previous methods. After a single oral dose of 100 mg/kg of SAA, the mean peak plasma concentration (Cmax) of SAA was 318 ng/mL at 0.5 h, the area under the plasma concentration,time curve (AUC0,12 h) was 698 ± 129 ng·h/mL, and the elimination half-life (T1/2) was 3.29 h.
