A LC‐MS/MS method for the determination of a hydrophilic paclitaxel derivative 7‐xylosyl‐10‐deacetylpaclitaxel in rat plasma was developed to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of 7‐xylosyl‐10‐deacetylpaclitaxel in the rats. 7‐Xylosyl‐10‐deacetylpaclitaxel and docetaxel (IS for 7‐xylosyl‐10‐deacetylpaclitaxel) were extracted from rat plasma with acetic ether and analyzed on a Hypersil C18 column (4.6 × 150 mm i.d., particle size 5 µm) with the mobile phase of ACN/0.05% formic acid (50:50, v/v). The analytes were detected using an ESI MS/MS in the multiple reaction monitoring mode. The standard curves for 7‐xylosyl‐10‐deacetylpaclitaxel in plasma were linear (>0.999) over the concentration range of 2.0–1000 ng/mL with a weighting of 1/concentration2. The method showed a satisfactory sensitivity (2.0 ng/mL using 50 µL plasma), precision (CV ≤ 10.1%), accuracy (relative error ?12.4 to 12.0%), and selectivity. This method was successfully applied to the pharmacokinetic study of 7‐xylosyl‐10‐deacetylpaclitaxel in rat plasma after intravenous administration of 7‐xylosyl‐10‐deacetylpaclitaxel to female Wistar rats.

A selective and sensitive liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS) method was developed for the simultaneous quantitative determination of 1,5‐dicaffeoylquinic acid (1,5‐DCQA) and 1‐O‐ acetylbritannilactone (1‐O‐ ABL) in rat plasma. Chromatographic separation was performed on a Zorbax Eclipse XDB‐C18 column using isocratic mobile phase consisting of methanol–water–formic acid (70:30:0.1, v /v/v) at a flow rate of 0.25 mL/min. The detection was achieved using a triple‐quadrupole tandem MS in selected reaction monitoring mode. The calibration curves of all analytes in plasma showed good linearity over the concentration ranges of 0.850–213 ng/mL for 1,5‐DCQA, and 0.520–130 ng/mL for 1‐O‐ ABL, respectively. The extraction recoveries were ≥78.5%, and the matrix effect ranged from 91.4 to 102.7% in all the plasma samples. The method was successfully applied for the pharmacokinetic study of the two active components in the collected plasma following oral administration of Inula britannica extract in rats.  相似文献

9‐Dehydro‐17‐hydro‐andrographolide (DHA) and sodium 9‐dehydro‐17‐hydro‐andrographolide‐19‐yl sulfate (DHAS) are active ingredients of xiyanping injection in clinical use. A simple, rapid and sensitive UHPLC‐ESI‐MS/MS method was developed for the determination of DHA and DHAS in rat plasma, and the pharmacokinetics of DHA and DHAS after intravenous administration of xiyanping injection was investigated. The plasma samples were treated with methanol to precipitate out protein, and the separation of DHA and DHAS was achieved on a Waters BEH C18 column with a mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile and 10 mmol/L ammonium acetate solution at a flow rate of 0.4 mL/min. DHA, DHAS and the internal standard (internal standard, IS) diethylstilbestrol were detected at negative ion mode. The precursor‐product ion pairs used in multiple reaction monitoring mode were: m/z 349.1 → 286.9 (DHA), m/z 428.9 → 96.0 (DHAS) and m/z 267.1 → 236.9 (IS). Calibration curves offered satisfactory linearity within the test range, and all correlation coefficients were >0.995. The lower limit of detection of DHA and DHAS in plasma samples were determined to be 0.1 ng/mL. The lower limit of quantitation was 0.5 ng/mL for DHA and DHAS. All the recoveries of the quality control samples were in the range of 86.0–102.4%. The ratios of matrix effect were between 89.2 and 105.1%. The method was fully validated and successfully applied to the pharmacokinetic study of DHA and DHAS in rats. The study showed that both DHA and DHAS were distributed and eliminated rapidly in rats.

A liquid chromatography–triple quadrupole mass spectrometric (LC‐MS/MS) method was developed and validated for the determination of 5‐nitro‐5′‐hydroxy‐indirubin‐3′‐oxime (AGM‐130) in human plasma to support a microdose clinical trial. The method consisted of a liquid–liquid extraction for sample preparation and LC‐MS/MS analysis in the positive ion mode using TurboIonSprayTM for analysis. d3‐AGM‐130 was used as the internal standard. A linear regression (weighted 1/concentration) was used to fit calibration curves over the concentration range of 10–2000 pg/mL for AGM‐130. There were no endogenous interference components in the blank human plasma tested. The accuracy at the lower limit of quantitation was 96.6% with a precision (coefficient of variation, CV) of 4.4%. For quality control samples at 30, 160 and 1600 pg/mL, the between run CV was ≤5.0 %. Between‐run accuracy ranged from 98.1 to 101.0%. AGM‐130 was stable in 50% acetonitrile for 168 h at 4°C and 6 h at room temperature. AGM‐130 was also stable in human plasma at room temperature for 6 h and through three freeze–thaw cycles. The variability of selected samples for the incurred sample reanalysis was ≤12.7% when compared with the original sample concentrations. This validated LC‐MS/MS method for determination of AGM‐130 was used to support a phase 0 microdose clinical trial. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献

A robust ultra‐performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC–MS/MS) method for the determination of morphine‐6‐d ‐glucuronide (M6G), morphine‐3‐d ‐glucuronide (M3G) and morphine (MOR) in human plasma and urine has been developed and validated. The analytes of interest were extracted from plasma by protein precipitation. The urine sample was prepared by dilution. Both plasma and urine samples were chromatographed on an Acquity UPLC HSS T3 column using gradient elution. Detection was performed on a Xevo TQ‐S tandem mass spectrometer in multiple reaction monitoring mode using positive electrospray ionization. Matrix interferences were not observed at the retention time of the analytes and internal standard, naloxone‐D5. The lower limits of quantitation of plasma and urine were 2/0.5/0.5 and 20/4/2 ng/mL for M6G/M3G/MOR, respectively. Calibration curves were linear over the concentration ranges of 2–2000/0.5–500/0.5–500 and 20–20,000/4–4000/2–2000 ng/mL for M6G/M3G/MOR in plasma and urine samples, respectively. The precision was <7.14% and the accuracy was within 85–115%. Furthermore, stability of the analytes at various conditions, dilution integrity, extraction recovery and matrix effect were assessed. Finally, this quantitative method was successfully applied to the pharmacokinetic study of M6G injection in Chinese noncancer pain patients.  相似文献

A sensitive and selective liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometric (LC–MS/MS) assay method has been developed and validated for the enantioselective determination of manidipine in human plasma using isotope‐labeled compounds as internal standards. After solid‐phase extraction, R ‐(−)‐manidipine and S ‐(+)‐manidipine were chromatographed on a Chiralpack IC‐3 C18 column using a isocratic mobile phase composed of 2 mm ammonium bicarbonate and acetonitrile (15:85, v /v). The precursor ion to product ion transitions for the enantiomers and internal standards were monitored in the multiple reaction monitoring and positive ionization mode using an API‐4000 mass spectrometer. The method was linear over the concentration range of 0.05–10.2 ng/mL for both enantiomers. The precision and accuracy results over five concentration levels in five different batches were well within the acceptance limits. The mean extraction recovery was >80% for both enantiomers. A variety of stability tests were executed in plasma and in neat samples, which complies with the FDA guidelines. After complete validation, the method was successfully applied to a pharmacokinetic study of a manidipine 20 mg oral dose in 10 healthy South India subjects under fasting conditions. The assay reproducibility is shown through incurred samples reanalysis of 20 subject plasma samples.  相似文献

A sensitive and reliable ultra‐high‐performance liquid chromatography–electrospray ionization–tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC‐MS/MS) method was developed and validated for the simultaneous determination of four active components of Semen Cassiae extract (aurantio‐obtusin, chrysoobtusin, obtusin and 1‐desmethylobtusin) in rat plasma after oral administration. Chromatographic separation was achieved on an Agilent Poroshell 120 C18 column with gradient elution using a mobile phase that consisted of acetonitrile‐ammonium acetate in water (30 mm ) at a flow rate of 0.4 mL/min. Detection was performed by a triple‐quadrupole tandem mass spectrometer in multiple reaction monitoring mode. The calibration curve was linear over a range of 3.24–1296 ng/mL for aurantio‐obtusin, 0.77–618 ng/mL for chrysoobtusin, 34.55–1818 ng/mL for obtusin and 1.86–1485 ng/mL for 1‐desmethylobtusin. Inter‐ and intra‐day assay variation was <15%. All analytes were shown to be stable during all sample storage and analysis procedures. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献

A simple, sensitive and specific high‐performance liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC‐MS/MS) method was developed and validated for the quantification of β‐hydroxy‐β‐methyl butyrate (HMB) in small volumes of rat plasma using warfarin as an internal standard (IS). The API‐4000 LC‐MS/MS was operated under the multiple reaction‐monitoring mode using the electrospray ionization technique. A simple liquid–liquid extraction process was used to extract HMB and IS from rat plasma. The total run time was 3 min and the elution of HMB and IS occurred at 1.48 and 1.75 min respectively; this was achieved with a mobile phase consisting of 0.1% formic acid in a water–acetonitrile mixture (15:85, v/v) at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min on a Agilent Eclipse XDB C8 (150 × 4.6, 5 µm) column. The developed method was validated in rat plasma with a lower limit of quantitation of 30.0 ng/mL for HMB. A linear response function was established for the range of concentrations 30–4600 ng/mL (r > 0.998) for HMB. The intra‐ and inter‐day precision values for HMB were acceptable as per Food and Drug Administration guidelines. HMB was stable in the battery of stability studies, viz. bench‐top, autosampler freeze–thaw cycles and long‐term stability for 30 days in plasma. The developed assay method was applied to a bioavailability study in rats. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献

A method for determining a novel phosphodiesterase‐4 inhibitor, 3‐[1‐(3cyclopropylmethoxy‐4‐difluoromethoxybenzyl)‐1H‐pyrazol‐3‐yl]‐benzoic acid (PDE‐423), in rat plasma was developed and validated using liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry for further pharmacokinetic study for development as a novel anti‐asthmatic drug. PDE‐423 in the concentration range of 0.02–10 µg/mL was linear with a correlation coefficient of >0.99, and the mean intra‐ and inter‐assay precisions of the assay were 7.50 and 3.86%, respectively. The validated method was used successfully for a pharmacokinetic study of PDE‐423 in rats. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献

A thalidomide analog, (4‐(1,3‐dioxo‐1,3‐dihydro‐2H‐isoindol‐2‐yl)‐N ′‐[(4‐ethoxyphenyl) methylidene] benzohydrazide), has been identified as a promising broad‐spectrum anti‐inflammatory agent in previous study. In this study, a sensitive and selective UPLC‐MS/MS assay was developed and validated for its determination in rat plasma samples. The chromatographic separation was performed on an Aquity BEH C18 column using mobile phase comprising of acetonitrile and 10 mm ammonium acetate in the ratio of 85: 15, at flow rate of 0.3 mL/min. The detection and quantification were performed in positive multiple reaction monitoring mode by parent to daughter ion transition of 414.06 ˃ 148.05 for analyte and 411.18 ˃ 191.07 for internal standard (risperidone), respectively using electrospray ionization source. The sample extraction process consisted of liquid–liquid extraction method using diethyl ether as the extracting solvent. The assay was validated by following FDA guidelines and all parameters were found to be within acceptable limits. The linearity was between 10.1 and 2500 ng/mL and the lower limit of quantification was 10.1 ng/mL. The reported results indicate that the assay could meet the requirement for analysis of this compound in amounts expected to the present in actual samples. Further, in vitro metabolic stability study was performed in rat liver microsomes by using the validated assay.  相似文献

Fat‐soluble vitamins play a pivotal role in the progression of atherosclerosis and the development of cardiovascular disease. Therefore, plasma monitoring of their concentrations may be useful in the diagnosis of these disorders as well as in the process of treatment. The study aimed to develop and validate an HPLC–MS/MS method for determination of retinol, α‐tocopherol, 25‐hydroxyvitamin D2 and 25‐hydroxyvitamin D3 in plasma of patients with cardiovascular disease. The analytes were separated on an HPLC Kinetex F5 column via gradient elution with water and methanol, both containing 0.1% (v/v) formic acid. Detection of the analytes was performed on a triple‐quadrupole MS with multiple reaction monitoring via electrospray ionization. The analytes were isolated from plasma samples with liquid–liquid extraction using hexane. Linearity of the analyte calibration curves was confirmed in the ranges 0.02–2 μg/mL for retinol, 0.5–20 μg/mL for α‐tocopherol, 5–100 ng/mL for 25‐hydroxyvitamin D2 and 2–100 ng/mL for 25‐hydroxyvitamin D3. Intra‐ and inter‐assay precision and accuracy of the method were satisfactory. Short‐ and long‐term stabilities of the analytes were determined. The HPLC‐MS/MS method was applied for the determination of the above fat‐soluble vitamin concentrations in patient plasma as potential markers of the cardiovascular disease progression.  相似文献

A novel, rapid and sensitive LC‐MS/MS method for the determination of 1‐O‐Acetylbritannilactone (ABL), a sesquiterpene lactone abundant in Inula britannica, was developed and validated using heteroclitin D as internal standard. Separation was achieved on a reversed phase Hypersil Gold C18 column (50 × 4.6 mm, i.d., 3.0 µm) using isocratic elution with methanol–5 mM ammonium acetate buffer aqueous solution (80:20, v/v) at a flow rate of 0.4 mL/min. Calibration curve was linear (r > 0.99) in a concentration range of 1.60–800 ng/mL with the lower limit of quantification of 1.60 ng/mL. Intra‐ and inter‐day accuracy and precision were validated by relative error (RE) and relative standard deviation (RSD) values, respectively, which were both less than ±15%. The validated method has been successfully applied to a pharmacokinetic study of ABL in rats. The elimination half‐lives were 0.412 ± 0.068, 0.415 ± 0.092 and 0.453 ± 0.071 h after a single intravenous administration of 0.14, 0.42, and 1.26 mg/kg ABL, respectively. The area under the plasma concentration–time curve from time zero to the last quantifiable time point and from time zero to infinity and the plasma concentrations at 2 min were linearly related to the doses tested.

Xiao‐Ai‐Ping injection (XAPI) is a traditional Chinese medicine that has been widely used to treat cancer. Modern pharmacological studies have demonstrated that C21 steroids are the main active compounds in XAPI. In this study, a sensitive and specific liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC‐MS/MS) method was developed and validated the first time for simultanenous determination of three isomeric pregnane genins (17β‐tenacigenin B, tenacigenin B and tenacigenin A) and their corresponding glycosides (tenacigenoside A, tenacissoside F and marsdenoside I) from XAPI in rat plasma. A simple liquid–liquid extraction technique was used after the addition of dexamethasone acetate as internal standard. The chromatography separation of analytes was achieved on an Agilent Zorbax Eclipse XDB‐C18 column (3.5 µm, 150 × 3 mm i.d.) using methanol–water as mobile phase in a gradient elution program. Detection was performed in multiple reaction monitoring mode using electrospray ionization in the negative ion mode. The method showed satisfactory linearity over a concentration range 5.00–2000.00 ng/mL for tenacigenin B, tenacigenin A, marsdenoside I and tenacissoside F (r2 > 0.99), 10.00–4000.00 ng/mL for 17β‐tenacigenin B and tenacigenoside A (r2 > 0.99). Intra‐ and inter‐day precisions (valued as relative standard deviation) were <9.00% and accuracies (as relative error) in the range ?6.31 to 7.23%. Finally, this validated method was successfully applied to the pharmacokinetic study of XAPI after intravenous administration to rats. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献

A rapid and sensitive LC–MS/MS method with good accuracy and precision was developed and validated for the pharmacokinetic study of quercetin‐3‐O‐β‐d ‐glucopyranosyl‐7‐O‐β‐d ‐gentiobioside (QGG) in Sprague–Dawley rats. Plasma samples were simply precipitated by methanol and then analyzed by LC–MS/MS. A Venusil® ASB C18 column (2.1 × 50 mm, i.d. 5 μm) was used for separation, with methanol–water (50:50, v/v) as the mobile phase at a flow rate of 300 μL/min. The optimized mass transition ion‐pairs (m/z) for quantitation were 787.3/301.3 for QGG, and 725.3/293.3 for internal standard. The linear range was 7.32–1830 ng/mL with an average correlation coefficient of 0.9992, and the limit of quantification was 7.32 ng/mL. The intra‐ and inter‐day precision and accuracy were less than ±15%. At low, medium and high quality control concentrations, the recovery and matrix effect of the analyte and IS were in the range of 89.06–92.43 and 88.58–97.62%, respectively. The method was applied for the pharmacokinetic study of QGG in Sprague–Dawley rats. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献

The chemotherapeutic drug 5‐fluorouracil (5‐FU) is widely used for treating solid tumors. Response to 5‐FU treatment is variable with 10–30% of patients experiencing serious toxicity partly explained by reduced activity of dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD). DPD converts endogenous uracil (U) into 5,6‐dihydrouracil (UH2), and analogously, 5‐FU into 5‐fluoro‐5,6‐dihydrouracil (5‐FUH2). Combined quantification of U and UH2 with 5‐FU and 5‐FUH2 may provide a pre‐therapeutic assessment of DPD activity and further guide drug dosing during therapy. Here, we report the development of a liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry assay for simultaneous quantification of U, UH2, 5‐FU and 5‐FUH2 in human plasma. Samples were prepared by liquid–liquid extraction with 10:1 ethyl acetate‐2‐propanol (v/v). The evaporated samples were reconstituted in 0.1% formic acid and 10 μL aliquots were injected into the HPLC system. Analyte separation was achieved on an Atlantis dC18 column with a mobile phase consisting of 1.0 mm ammonium acetate, 0.5 mm formic acid and 3.3% methanol. Positively ionized analytes were detected by multiple reaction monitoring. The analytical response was linear in the range 0.01–10 μm for U, 0.1–10 μm for UH2, 0.1–75 μm for 5‐FU and 0.75–75 μm for 5‐FUH2, covering the expected concentration ranges in plasma. The method was validated following the FDA guidelines and applied to clinical samples obtained from ten 5‐FU‐treated colorectal cancer patients. The present method merges the analysis of 5‐FU pharmacokinetics and DPD activity into a single assay representing a valuable tool to improve the efficacy and safety of 5‐FU‐based chemotherapy.

A rapid, sensitive and selective liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry method for the detection of tandospirone (TDS) and its active metabolite 1‐[2‐pyrimidyl]‐piperazine (1‐PP) in Sprague–Dawley rat plasma is described. It was employed in a pharmacokinetic study. These analytes and the internal standards were extracted from plasma using protein precipitation with acetonitrile, then separated on a CAPCELL PAK ADME C18 column using a mobile phase of acetonitrile and 5 mm ammonium formate acidified with formic acid (0.1%, v/v) at a total flow rate of 0.4 mL/min. The detection was performed with a tandem mass spectrometer equipped with an electrospray ionization source. The method was validated to quantify the concentration ranges of 1.000–500.0 ng/mL for TDS and 10.00–500.0 ng/mL for 1‐PP. Total time for each chromatograph was 3.0 min. The intra‐day precision was between 1.42 and 6.69% and the accuracy ranged from 95.74 to 110.18% for all analytes. Inter‐day precision and accuracy ranged from 2.47 to 6.02% and from 98.37 to 105.62%, respectively. The lower limits of quantification were 1.000 ng/mL for TDS and 10.00 ng/mL for 1‐PP. This method provided a fast, sensitive and selective analytical tool for quantification of tandospirone and its metabolite 1‐PP in plasma necessary for the pharmacokinetic investigation.  相似文献

The purpose of this study was to simultaneously investigate the pharmacokinetics of five bioactive compounds in rat plasma after oral administration of Buyang Huanwu decoction (BYHWD) using high‐performance liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (HPLC‐MS). The separations were performed on a Thermo Hypersil Gold C18 analytical column (50 × 2.1 mm, 3 µm) with the column temperature kept at 30°C. The quantitative analysis was performed using a quadrupole mass spectrometer detector operated under selected ion monitoring mode. A linear gradient elution of A (0.1% formic acid solution) and B (100% acetonitrile) was used at a flow rate of 0.2 mL/min. The method was validated within the concentration ranges 1.8–450, 6.0–1500, 2.0–500, 1.2–300 and 1.2–150 ng/mL for paeoniflorin, calycosin‐7‐O‐β‐d ‐glucoside, ononin, calycosin and formononetin, respectively. The calibration curves were linear with correlation coefficients > 0.99. The lower limits of quantitations were < 6.0 ng/mL. The method was further applied to assess the pharmacokinetics of the five bioactive constituents of BYHWD in rat plasma. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献

A new method was developed for the quantitation of 3‐α‐hydroxy tibolone, in human plasma, after oral administration of a tablet formulation containing tibolone (2.5 mg). 3‐α‐Hydroxy tibolone was extracted by a liquid–liquid procedure, using cyproterone acetate as internal standard and chlorobutane as extraction solvent. After extraction, samples were submitted to a derivatization step with p‐toluenesulfonyl isocyanate. A mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile and water (72:28 v/v) was used and chromatographic separation was achieved using Agilent XDB C18 column (100 × 4.6 mm i.d.; 5 µm particle size), at 40°C. Mass spectrometric detection was performed using atmospheric pressure chemical ionization in negative mode for 3‐α‐hydroxy tibolone and in positive mode for cyproterone acetate. The fragmentation transitions were m/z 510.2 → m/z 170.1 and m/z 417.0 → m/z 357.1 for 3‐α‐hydroxy tibolone and cyproterone acetate, respectively. Calibration curves were constructed over the range 100–30,000 pg/mL and the method was shown to be specific, precise and accurate, with a mean recovery rate of 94.2% for 3‐α‐hydroxy tibolone. No matrix effect or carry‐over was detected in the samples. The validated method was applied in a pharmacokinetic study with a tibolone formulation in healthy female volunteers.

A rapid, robust and sensitive liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry method was developed and validated for bioanalysis of TJ0711, a novel vasodilatory β‐blocker in dog plasma. This assay is able to chromatographically separate TJ0711 from its isobaric metabolite as well as glucuronide conjugates. Chromatographic separation was achieved on a Welch Ultimate‐XB C18 column (2.1 × 100 mm, 3 μm). The analyte and internal standard (propranolol) were extracted from plasma by liquid–liquid extraction using ethyl acetate. The mass spectrometric detection was carried out in positive ion multiple reaction monitoring mode. Good linearity was obtained over the concentration range of 0.5–500 ng/mL (r > 0.99) for TJ0711. Moreover, the method had good accuracy (RE ranging from −2.70 to −0.32%) and precision (RSD < 7.55%). TJ0711 was stable in dog plasma for at least 6 h at ambient temperature, for at least 30 days at −20°C and after three freeze–thaw cycles. This method was successfully applied to a preclinical pharmacokinetic study and the results demonstrated linear pharmacokinetics of TJ0711 over a dose range from 0.03 to 0.3 mg/kg. No significant gender differences were observed in TJ0711 plasma pharmacokinetic parameters.  相似文献

The DNA methyltransferase inhibitor 5‐azacytidine is being evaluated clinically as an oral formulation to treat various solid tumors. A sensitive, reliable method was developed to quantitate 5‐azacytidine using LC‐MS/MS to perform detailed pharmacokinetic studies. The drug of interest was extracted from plasma using Oasis MCX ion exchange solid‐phase extraction 96‐well plates. Chromatographic separation was achieved with a YMC J'sphere M80 C18 column and isocratic elution with a methanol–water–formic acid (15:85:0.1, v/v/v) mobile phase over a 7 min total analytical run time. An AB Sciex 5500 triple quadrupole mass spectrometer operated in positive electrospray ionization mode was used for the detection of 5‐azacytidine. The assay range was 5–500 ng/mL and proved to be accurate (97.8–109.1%) and precise (CV ≤ 9.8%). Tetrahydrouridine was used to stabilize 5‐azacytidine in blood/plasma samples. With the addition of tetrahydrouridine, long‐term frozen plasma stability for 5‐azacytidine at ?70°C has been determined for at least 323 days. The method was applied for the measurement of total plasma concentrations of 5‐azacytidine in a cancer patient receiving a 300 mg oral daily dose. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献
