A specific, sensitive, rapid and reproducible method for the determination of flomoxef in human plasma using high‐performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry was developed and validated. Flomoxef was detected using an electrospay ionization method operated in negative‐ion mode. Chromatographic separation was performed in gradient elution mode on a Luna® C18(2) column (3 μm , 20 × 4.0 mm) at a flow rate of 1 mL/min and runtime 3.5 min. The mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile and water containing 0.1% formic acid as additive. Extraction of flomoxef from plasma and precipitation of plasma proteins was performed with acetonitrile with an absolute recovery of 86.4 ± 1.6%. The calibration curve was linear with a correlation coefficient of 0.999 over the concentration range 10–5000 ng/mL and the lower limit of quantification was 10 ng/mL. The intra‐ and inter‐day precisions were <11.8%, while the accuracy ranged from 99.6 to 109.0%. A stability study of flomoxef revealed that it could be successfully analyzed at 4ºС over 24 h, but it was unstable in solutions at room temperature during short‐term storage (4 h) and several freeze–thaw cycles.

A fast and sensitive ultra-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) method was developed for the determination of lovastatin in human plasma. With simvastatin as internal standard, sample pretreatment involved one-step extraction with n-hexane-methylene dichloride-isopropanol (20:10:1, v/v/v) of 0.5 mL plasma. Chromatographic separation was carried out on an Acquity UPLC BEH C(18) column with mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile-water (containing 5 mmol/L ammonium acetate; 85:15, v/v) at a flow-rate of 0.35 mL/min. The detection was performed on a triple-quadrupole tandem mass spectrometer by multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) via electrospray ionization source with positive mode. The analysis time was shorter than 1.7 min per sample. The standard curve was linear (r2>or=0.99) over the concentration range 0.025-50.0 ng/mL with a lower limit of quantification of 0.025 ng/mL. The intra- and inter-day precision values were below 11% and the accuracy (relative error) was within 6.0% at three quality control levels. This is the first method of MS with MRM coupled to UPLC for the determination of lovastatin, which showed great advantages of high sensitivity, selectivity and high sample throughput. It was fully validated and successfully applied to the pharmacokinetic study of lovastatin tablets in healthy Chinese male volunteers after oral administration. 相似文献

A high-performance liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry method was developed for the determination of carnitine, its biosynthetic precursor butyrobetaine, and eight acylcarnitines in plasma. The procedure includes a solid-phase extraction for carnitine and short- and medium-chain acylcarnitines, and a liquid-liquid extraction for protein-bound long-chain acylcarnitines, followed by separation on a reversed-phase column in the presence of a volatile ion-pairing reagent. Detection was achieved using an ion-trap mass spectrometer run in the tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) mode. The choice of the matrix for calibrators, used for quantification of these endogenous compounds, was also investigated. Validation was performed for standard quality controls diluted with 4% bovine serum albumin solution and for spiked plasma quality control samples at concentrations between 0.5 and 80 micromol/L, depending on the compound. Intra- and inter-day precisions for the determination of carnitine were below 3.4% and accuracies were between 95.2 and 109.0%. Application of the method to the diagnosis of pathological acylcarnitine profiles of metabolic disorders in a patient suffering from methylmalonic aciduria is presented. The method allows quantification of carnitine, butyrobetaine, acetylcarnitine and propionylcarnitine, and semiquantitative analysis of medium- and long-chain acylcarnitines. In contrast with other methods, no derivatization step is needed. 相似文献

Tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) has become a prominent method for screening newborns for diseases such as organic acidemia and fatty acid oxidation defects, although current methods cannot separate acylcarnitine isomers. Accurate determination of dicarboxylic acylcarnitines such as methylmalonylcarnitine and glutarylcarnitine has not been carried out, because obtaining standards of these acylcarnitines is difficult. We attempted the individual determinations of acylcarnitines with isomers and dicarboxylic acylcarnitines by applying high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Chromatographic separation was performed by gradient elution using a mixture of 0.08% aqueous ion-pairing agent and acetonitrile as the mobile phase. Mass transitions of m/z 161.8-->84.8 for carnitine and m/z 164.8-->84.8 for deuterated carnitine were monitored in positive ion electrospray ionization mode. One carnitine and 16 acylcarnitines were quantified. The limit of quantitation (LOQ) was 0.1 micromol/L for methylmalonylcarnitine and 0.05 micromol/L for the other acylcarnitines. Intra-day and inter-day coefficients of variance (CVs) were <8.3% and <8.8%, respectively, for all acylcarnitines in serum, and both were <9.2% in urine. Mean recoveries were >90% for all acylcarnitines. Human samples were quantified by this method. After addition of deuterated acylcarnitines as internal standards, acylcarnitines in serum or urine were extracted using a solid-phase extraction cartridge. In healthy adult individuals, isobutyryl-, 2-methylbutyryl- and isovalerylcarnitine were detected in serum and urine. Dicarboxylic acylcarnitines were detected in urine. High concentrations of methylmalonylcarnitine and propionylcarnitine were found in both the serum and the urine of a patient with methylmalonic acidemia. The described HPLC/MS/MS method could separate most acylcarnitine isomers and quantify them, potentially allowing detailed diagnoses and follow-up treatment for those diseases. 相似文献

The narrow gap between essentiality and toxicity of selenium requires detailed investigations on selenium metabolism in order to find suitable indicators for the selenium status in the human body. Current methods for quantitative selenium speciation in human urine are based on separation by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled online with elemental mass spectrometry (MS), and the potential of molecular MS detection techniques for the reliable identification and quantification of selenosugars in crude human urine has not been utilized. Now we report the development of an HPLC tandem mass spectrometric (MS/MS) method for the reliable determination in crude human urine of three significant selenium urinary metabolites, collectively termed selenosugars, namely methyl 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-1-seleno-beta-D-galactopyranoside (SeGalNAc), methyl 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-1-seleno-beta-D-glucopyranoside (SeGluNAc) and methyl 2-amino-2-deoxy-1-seleno-beta-D-galactopyranoside (SeGalNH2). Reversed-phase HPLC, with and without cation-exchange guard columns, was applied for the separation of the selenosugars, and atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) and selected reaction monitoring (SRM) were used for selective and sensitive detection. The collision-induced dissociation behaviour of the selenosugars was studied in detail using APCI triple quadrupole MS/MS and electrospray ion trap MS. The developed method was applied to urine samples collected prior to and after selenium supplementation for the quantification of SeGalNAc using both external calibration and the method of standard additions. Additionally, SeGalNH2 was detected in urine samples after Se supplementation. Finally, neutral loss scanning was explored as a possible method for the detection of unknown methyl-selenosugars. 相似文献

Liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (LC/ESI-MS/MS) is one of the most prominent analytical techniques owing to its inherent selectivity and sensitivity. In LC/ESI-MS/MS, chemical derivatization is often used to enhance the detection sensitivity. Derivatization improves the chromatographic separation, and enhances the mass spectrometric ionization efficiency and MS/MS detectability. In this review, an overview of the derivatization reagents which have been applied to LC/ESI-MS/MS is presented, focusing on the applications to low molecular weight compounds. 相似文献

Gatifloxacin is an advanced-generation, 8-methoxyfluoroquinolone that is active against a broad spectrum of pathogens, including antiobiotic resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae. Development of a rapid, sensitive and selective method for the determination of gatifloxacin in human plasma is essential for understanding the pharmacokinetics of the drug when administered orally or intravenously. Solid phase extraction (SPE) using Oasis HLB was used to extract gatifloxacin and the internal standard ciprofloxacin from plasma. A method based on liquid chromatography/electrospray tandem mass spectrometry (LC/ESI-MS/MS) was developed and validated to quantitate gatifloxacin in human plasma. The precursor and major product ions of the analyte were monitored on a triple quadrupole mass spectrometer with positive ion electrospray ionization (ESI) in the multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode. Mechanisms for the formation of collision-induced dissociation products of gatifloxacin are proposed. Linear calibration curves were generated from 10--1000 ng/mL with coefficients of determination greater than 0.99. The interday and intraday precision (%RSD) was less than 6.0% and accuracy (%error) was less than 5.4% for gatifloxacin. The limit of detection (LOD) for the method was 500 pg/mL based on a signal-to-noise ratio of 3. 相似文献

Atrasentan (A-147627) is an endothelin antagonist receptor being developed at Abbott Laboratories for the treatment of prostate cancer. A quick and sensitive method for the determination of atrasentan in human plasma has been developed and validated using high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry. A dual-column, single mass spectrometer system is used to provide a reliable and routine means to increase sample throughput. The analytical method involves liquid-liquid extraction and internal standard (A-166790). The plasma samples and internal standard are acidified with 0.3 M hydrochloric acid prior to being extracted into 1:1 (v/v) hexanes--methyl t-butyl ether. The organic extract was evaporated to dryness using heated nitrogen stream and reconstituted with mobile phase. Atrasentan and internal standard were separated with no interference in a Zorbax SB-C(18) analytical column with 2.1 x 50 mm, 5 microm, and a Zorbax C(8) guard column using a mobile phase consisting of 50:50 (v:v) acetonitrile--0.05 M ammonium acetate, pH 4.5, at a flow rate of 0.30 mL/min to provide 4 min chromatograms. For a 250 microL plasma sample volume, the limit of quantitation was approximately 0.3 ng/mL. The calibration was linear from 0.30 to 98.0 ng/mL (r(2) > 0.995). A significant advantage of the method is the ability to employ parallel HPLC separations with detection by a single MS/MS system to provide sensitivity and selectivity sufficient to achieve robust analytical results with a lower limit of quantitation of 0.30 ng/mL and high throughput. 相似文献

A sensitive and selective method for the determination of 2'-beta-fluoro-2',3'-dideoxyadenosine (lodenosine, F-ddA), an experimental anti-AIDS drug, and its major metabolite, 2'-beta-fluoro-2',3'-dideoxyinosine (F-ddI), in human plasma was developed and validated. The procedure employs two internal standards and a simple ultrafiltration step followed by chromatography on a Betasil C(18) minibore column. An in-line valve is used to remove salts before reaching the ion source. Detection is by electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry with selected reaction monitoring. The method has a limit of quantitation of 4 ng ml(-1) (16 nM) for F-ddA and 8 ng ml(-1) (32 nM) for F-ddI with a linear range up to 2000 ng ml(-1) (7.9 microM) for each. Predicted concentrations from a three-day validation study were within 5% of the nominal values for F-ddA and 16% for F-ddI. Intra- and inter-assay precision, as measured by relative standard deviation, was 13% or better for both compounds. To achieve good reproducibility, many variables related to the electrospray ionization were optimized for both precision and sensitivity. The method was successfully employed to analyze samples and evaluate plasma pharmacokinetics from a Phase I clinical trial. 相似文献

An uroporphomethene inhibitor of uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase, characterized by high-performance liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry, was reported recently (Phillips et al., Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America 2007; 104: 5079-5084). Close examination of the tandem mass spectrometric fragmentation pattern of the compound showed that it is not a tetrapyrrole or an uroporphyrinogen or uroporphyrin related molecule. The product ion spectrum showed a fragmentation pattern typical of a poly(ethylene glycol) structure. Characteristic fragmentations of the side-chain acetic acid and propionic acid substituents of a uroporphyrin or uroporphyrinogen derivative were absent. 相似文献

A congener-specific method based on high-performance liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC/ES-MS/MS) in the negative ion mode was developed for the analysis of hexabromocyclododecane (HBCDD). On a C(18) analytical column, with a methanol/water mobile phase, the alpha-isomer was completely resolved from the beta- and gamma-isomers while the beta- and gamma-isomers were sufficiently resolved at half their peak heights. The ES spray voltage strongly influenced the intensity of the ion signal. For MS, a source temperature of 500 degrees C and a collision energy of 50 eV were found to be optimum for the [M-H](-) to Br(-) transition. Run-to-run and day-to-day (n = 3) variability was minimal, with relative standard deviations of 2.6-4.1 and 2.4-4.4%, respectively. The limit of detection was 4-6 pg on-column. When applied to tissue samples from Lake Winnipeg fish both alpha- and gamma-isomers of HBCDD were found in low-ng/g (lipid corrected) concentrations. 相似文献

A simple and sensitive method is described for the determination of E5880 in rat plasma. The method is based on high-performance liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization mass spectrometry, using deuterated E5880 as an internal standard. Selected reaction monitoring is employed for selectivity and sensitivity, this in turn enables quantification in a short period of time (within 7 minutes) over the extended range of 0.1-1000 ng/ml with acceptable precision and accuracy. The method demonstrated to be suitable for the quantitative analysis of E5880 in rat plasma. The pharmacokinetic profile of E5880 after a single intravenous administration of E5880 was elucidated. 相似文献

The behaviour of 5-methyl-2'-deoxycytidine (m(5)dCyd, claimed to be a potential marker for leukaemia) during the electrospray process was studied. In particular, considerations concerning the effect of solution chemistry (e.g. analyte concentration, pH, etc.) on electrospray ionization mass spectra were drawn. Furthermore, a procedure using liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (LC/ESI-MS/MS) for the determination of urinary m(5)dCyd is described. The method is simple, sensitive and highly specific. The pre-treatment procedure gave an average recovery of 79% (relative standard deviation (RSD) of 3%). Method performance was evaluated on spiked urine samples covering the concentration range from 50 ng/mL to 10 microgram/mL, the same as that of an existing inhibition ELISA method. Contrary to findings based on this immunoassay technique, urinary m(5)dCyd in healthy individuals was not detectable and did not increase in the presence of the malignant disease. 相似文献

Glutathione (GSH) is a tripeptide composed of glutamate, cysteine, and glycine. It is present in practically all cells and has several important roles, such as preventing the oxidation of the sulfhydryl groups of proteins within a cell. Evidence for GSH deficiency or depletion has been found in a variety of diseases and toxicity-related studies, including diabetes and induction of oxidative stress to form reactive oxygen species which cause DNA, lipid, and protein oxidations. A simple, selective, and sensitive analytical method for measuring low levels of GSH in biological fluids would therefore be desirable to conduct GSH deficiency or depletion-related mechanistic toxicity studies. Here a method for both low- and high-level quantitation of GSH from cultured cells and rat liver tissues via liquid chromatography/positive electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (LC/ESI-MS/MS) has been developed. The lower limit of quantitation (LOQ) of the method was 5 ng/mL. The method is linear over a wide dynamic concentration range of 5.0 to 5000.0 ng/mL, with a correlation coefficient R2 > 0.99. The intra-day assay precision relative standard deviation (RSD) values for all quality control (QC) samples were < or =16.31%, with accuracy values ranging from 94.13 to 97.80%. The inter-day assay precision RSD values for all QC samples were < or =15.94%, with accuracy values ranging from 94.51 to 100.29%. With this method, low levels of GSH from diethyl maleate (DEM)-treated mouse lymphoma cells, and GSH in rat liver tissues, were quantified. 相似文献

A novel and rapid procedure based on liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) for the determination of dialkyl phosphates (metabolites of organophosphorus pesticides) in human urine has been developed. After addition of 40 mM tetrabutylammonium acetate, 10 microL of urine sample were directly injected into the LC/MS/MS system. The method was validated yielding calibration curves with correlation coefficients greater than 0.997 and repeatability coefficient of variation (CV) lower than 9%. The accuracy and precision were evaluated by direct injection of spiked samples at 10 and 100 microg/L obtaining recoveries between 78 and 119% with coefficients of variation below 12%. Limits of detection of 1 microg/L for diethyl phosphate (DEP), diethylthiophosphate (DETP) and diethyldithiophosphate (DEDTP) and 2 microg/L for dimethyldithiophosphate (DMDTP) were achieved, all the analytes being detected in negative ion mode. The fragmentation pathway of dialkyl phosphates allowed us the use of an additional transition for confirmation in order to improve their identification in real-world samples. The applicability of the LC/MS/MS method was demonstrated by applying it to the analysis of urine samples of farmers exposed to the organophosphorus pesticide chlorpyrifos. Good correlation between application of the product in the field (citrus orchards), concentration levels of dialkyl phosphates and levels of the chlorpyrifos-specific metabolite (1,3,5-trichloro-2-pyridinol) was obtained. 相似文献
