Determination of Sophocarpine,Matrine, and Sophoridine in KUHUANG Injection by GC-MS

A GC-MS procedure was developed to determine sophocarpine (SC), matrine (MT), and sophoridine (SRI) in KUHUANG injection. The chromatographic separation was performed on an HP-5MS column (30 m × 0.35 mm inner diameter, 0.25 μm film thickness) with helium as the carrier gas. The oven temperature was programmed from 170 to 205°C at a rate of 0.8 K/min, and n-tetracosane was used as the internal standard (IS). There was a good linear relationship between the peak area ratio of analyte to IS and the concentration of analyte in the ranges 0.0360–0.100 mg/mL for SC, 0.0461–0.346 mg/mL for MT, and 0.0473–0.355 mg/mL for SRI. The recoveries were 86.1–100.9% for SC, 87.9–104.0% for MT, and 92.5–107.2% for SRI. The interday and intraday relative standard deviations (RSDs) of determinations were less than 4.6, 2.7, and 5.1% for the assay of SC, MT, and SRI, respectively. The limits of detection (LOD) were 0.018 mg/mL for SC, 0.0231 mg/mL for MT, and 0.0287 mg/mL for SRI. The limits of quantitation (LOQ) were 0.036 mg/mL for SC, 0.0461 mg/mL for MT, and 0.0473 mg/mL for SRI. The results indicate that the developed method can be used to improve the quality control of KUHUANG injection. __________ From Zhurnal Analiticheskoi Khimii, Vol. 60, No. 10, 2005, pp. 1087–1093.

Use of spermine and thiabendazole as analyte protectants to improve direct analysis of 16 carbamates by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry in green vegetable matrices

The carbamates are a well-known thermosensible pesticides class, which are highly prone to degradation via fragmentation and/or rearrangement mechanisms leading to a difficult direct gas chromatography (GC) analysis, i.e., without derivatization. In this paper, spermine and thiabendazole both at 1 mg/mL were highlighted as efficient analyte protectants to improve the direct and simultaneous analysis of 16 carbamates both in solvent and green vegetable matrices. These two molecules were compared in mixture or in combination with three well-known efficient analyte protectants 3-ethoxy-1,2-propanediol, d-sorbitol, and l-gulonic acid-γ-lactone. The potential benefits were investigated in GC hyphenated to mass spectrometry (GC–MS) with two injection modes: programmable temperature vaporizing injector in a solvent split mode (PTV-SSI) and on-column injection (OCI). It was shown that the combined effect of the five protective agents led to the best sensitivity improvement with limits of detection between 0.1–0.4 and 0.03–0.1 μg/kg and limits of quantification between 0.3–1.1 and 0.1–0.5 μg/kg for PTV-SSI and OCI mode, respectively. The correlation coefficients from the analyzed 1–500 μg/kg range were all >0.999 both in the solvent and matrices studied. The recoveries of carbamates from three spiked matrices over five replicates at 20 and 100 μg/kg were in the range 90–107% with relative standard deviation (RSD) equal to 2–7% for PTV-SSI and 92–107% with an RSD equal to 1–6% for OCI. The use of spermine and thiabendazole with other analyte protectants shows very efficient partial or total reduction of breakdown of the most sensitive carbamates such as the N-sulfenylated ones.

Liquid chromatographic determination of methyl anthranilate in artificially flavored nonalcoholic beverages

A liquid chromatographic method was developed that provides a simple and rapid means of determining methyl anthranilate (MA) in carbonated and noncarbonated, artificial grape-flavored, nonalcoholic beverages. The proposed procedure, which was applied to 12 different products, uses a Nova-Pak C18 column, a mobile phase containing acetonitrile-0.025M KH2PO4 (40 + 60), pH 3.00, and UV detection at 220 nm. Assay values ranged from 0.35 to 16.6 microg MA/mL. The intralaboratory precision (relative standard deviation) for the products ranged from 0.51 to 2.23% (n = 5), and recoveries via fortification ranged from 83.6 to 102.4%. The limits of quantitation and detection were 0.00417 and 0.00125 microg/mL, respectively, and the analyte response was linear over a 100-fold concentration range (0.0001-0.01 mg/mL).     

Quantification of midodrine and its active metabolite in plasma using a high performance liquid chromatography column switching technique

An automated column-switching HPLC system is described for the simultaneous determination of midodrine, an alpha-adrenergic stimulating drug, and its active metabolite, ST-1059. Serum or plasma (850 microliters) is directly injected onto a RP18 (30 micrograms particle size) pre-column (9 x 4 mm ID) which acts as an on-line liquid-solid extractor and analyte enrichment system. The injection is followed by washing steps. The fraction containing the analytes is transferred onto an analytical RP18 column via step gradient elution where the final analysis is performed. Fluorescence detection is used (lambda ex 290 nm and lambda em 322 nm), and method detection limits of 0.8 ng/mL plasma were reached. These were sufficiently low to determine the plasma concentration-time profiles for both compounds following oral administration of 2.5 mg and 5 mg midodrine hydrochloride. The assay in serum or plasma was linear in the range of 1 to 15 ng analyte/mL, the recovery was greater than 95%, and the reproducibility was sufficient. The assay was rugged and was maintained by routinely changing the home-made, dry packed pre-column every 20th serum injection.     

Determination of 195 pesticide residues in Chinese herbs by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry using analyte protectants

The phenomenon known as "matrix-induced enhancement effect" is not only observed in the analysis of pesticides in food, but also in Chinese herbs. Several approaches have been proposed to overcome the matrix-induced effect, but each method has serious limitations. Compared with standard calibration methods, the procedure with adding analyte protectants offers a more convenient and effective route to solve the problem. In the current study, we have analyzed 195 types of pesticides in Chinese herbs by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), and the compounds that are susceptible to matrix effect were picked up and confirmed. In addition, several analyte protectants were evaluated and the most effective combination was determined. D-ribonic acid-γ-lactone (2 mg/ml) and D-sorbitol (1 mg/ml) were shown to be the best analyte protectants for the analysis of most pesticides.     

Development and validation of a liquid chromatographic/tandem mass spectrometric method for the determination of sertraline in human plasma

A sensitive and rapid liquid chromatographic/tandem mass spectrometric method was developed and validated for the determination of sertraline in human plasma. The analyte and internal standard (IS, diphenhydramine) were extracted with 3 mL of diethyl ether/dichloromethane (2:1, v/v) from 0.25 mL plasma, then separated on a Zorbax Eclipse XDB C18 column using methanol/water/formic acid (75:25:0.1, v/v/v) as the mobile phase. The triple quadrupole mass spectrometry was applied via an atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) source for detection. The fragmentation pattern of the protonated sertraline was elucidated with the aid of product mass spectra of isotopologous peaks. Quantification was performed using selected reaction monitoring of the transitions of m/z 306 --> 159 for sertraline and m/z 256 --> 167 for the IS. The method was linear over the concentration range of 0.10-100 ng/mL. The intra-day and inter-day precisions, expressed by relative standard deviation, were both less than 6.7%. Assay accuracies were within +/-6.9% as terms of relative error. The lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) was identifiable and reproducible at 0.10 ng/mL with a precision of 8.3% and an accuracy of 9.6%. The validated method has been successfully applied for the pharmacokinetic study and bioequivalence evaluation of sertraline in 18 healthy volunteers after a single oral administration of 50 mg sertraline hydrochloride tablets.     

Automated Method for the Total Creatinine Determination in Dehydrated Broths

Abstract

In order to improve the quality control of dehydrated broth, a new automated method was developed to determine total creatinine in dehydrated broths. The sample pretreatment was coupled on‐line with the Flow Injection Analysis (FIA) system for analyte determination by the classical Jaffé reaction, stopped flow methodology, and spectrophotometric detection. The time consumed was reduced from 7 h, which is necessary with the official method, to 25 min. The calibration graph is linear between 0.342–1.368 mg creatinine/100 mL. The relative standard deviation (RSD%) was 1.7%, the sample throughput was 7 h^?1, and the detection limit was 0.185 mg creatinine/100 mL. The validation of the proposed method was carried out with real samples. The obtained results were compared with those obtained from the Association of Official Analytical Chemists (AOAC) reference method.     

Determination of peimine and peiminine in Bulbus Fritillariae Thunbergii by capillary electrophoresis by indirect UV detection using N-(1-naphthyl)ethylenediamine dihydrochloride as probe

A simple and inexpensive CE method was developed for the determination of peimine and peiminine. Because of the lack of an UV chromophore of peimine and peiminine, the detection method chosen was indirect UV detection, with N‐(1‐naphthyl)ethylenediamine dihydrochloride (NED) as the UV absorbing probe. It was thought that NED, a chromophoric ion, may form hydrogen bonding pairs with the analytes to cause significant changes in separation selectivity. Additionally, the hydrophobic interactions between analytes and the probe also play a crucial role in achieving a resolution between the two analytes. The analyses were carried out with a background electrolyte composed of 66% MeOH–ACN (1:1, v/v), 34% aqueous buffer containing 15 mM NaH₂PO₄, 2.5 mM NED, 4 mM H₃PO₄. MeOH–ACN mixtures used as organic modifiers can not only reduce the adsorption of NED to the capillary wall, but also decrease the baseline noise and drift. The method provided a linear response ranging from 5 to 200 μg/mL. The limits of detection (LODs) for peimine and peiminine were 3.9 and 4.1 μg/mL, respectively. The repeatabilities (n = 3) reached relative standard deviation values (RSDs) of 3.4 and 4.1% for the peak areas, 4.0 and 4.4% for the peak heights, and 0.29 and 0.30% for the migration time of peimine and peiminine, respectively. Regression equations revealed linear relationships (r = 0.9995–0.9996) between the peak area of each analyte and the concentration. The method developed was successfully applied to quantify peimine and peiminine in chloroform extracts of the ground Bulbus Fritillariae Thunbergii.     

Rapid GC-MS Analysis of Pesticide Residues Using Analyte Protectants

Abstract

A multi-residue method was developed to determine pesticides in foods using analyte protectants to compensate for matrix effects. Promising analyte protectants and combinations of these analyte protectants were evaluated for masking active sites in gas chromatography systems. The optimal combination of analyte protectants was determined to be the mixture of polyethylene glycol and olive oil. Calibration curves for analyte protectants in both neat solvents and matrix-matched standards were compared and similar response enhancement was observed. This result suggests a convenient calibration method using a combination of analyte protectants in neat solvent instead of the conventional matrix-matched standards calibration method.
