A rapid, sensitive, and selective liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry method for the detection of tandospirone
in human plasma is described. It was employed in a pharmacokinetic study. The analyte and internal standard diphenhydramine
were extracted from plasma using liquid–liquid extraction, then separated on a Zorbax XDB C18 column using a mobile phase of methanol–water–formic acid (80:20:0.5, v/v/v). The detection was performed with a tandem mass
spectrometer equipped with an electrospray ionization source. Linearity was established in the concentration range of 10.0-5,000 pg/ml.
The lower limit of quantification was 10.0 pg/ml. The intraday and interday relative standard deviation across three validation
runs over the entire concentration range was less than 13%. Accuracy determined at three concentrations (25.0, 200, and 4,000 pg/ml
for tandospirone) ranged from 94.4 to 102.1%. Each plasma sample was chromatographed within 3.4 min. The method proved to
be highly selective and suitable for bioequivalence evaluation of different formulations containing tandospirone and clinical
pharmacokinetic investigation of tandospirone. 相似文献

In this report, a high-throughput and sensitive method for analysis of eight central-acting muscle relaxants in human plasma
by ultra-performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) in the positive and negative ionization modes
using tolbutamide as internal standard is presented. After pretreatment of a plasma sample by solid-phase extraction with
an Oasis HLB cartridge, muscle relaxants were analyzed by UPLC with Acquity UPLC BEH C18 column and Acquity TQD tandem quadrupole mass spectrometer equipped with an electrospray ionization interface. The calibration
curves for muscle relaxants spiked into human plasma equally showed good linearities in the nanogram per milliliter order
range. The detection limits (signal-to-noise ratio = 3) was as low as 0.1–2 ng/mL. The method gave satisfactory recovery rates,
accuracy, and precision for quality control samples spiked with muscle relaxants. To further validate the present method,
250 mg of chlorphenesin carbamate was orally administered to a healthy male volunteer, and the concentrations of chlorphenesin
carbamate in plasma were measured 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, and 8 h after dosing; their concentrations in human plasma were between
0.62 and 2.44 μg/mL. To our knowledge, this is the first report describing simultaneous analysis of over more than two central-acting
muscle relaxants by liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry. This has been realized by the capability of our instrument
for simultaneous multiple reaction monitoring of the target compounds in both positive and negative ionization modes. Therefore,
the present method seems very useful in forensic and clinical toxicology and pharmacokinetic studies. 相似文献

Alendronate is an important representative of bisphosphonates, strongly polar compounds that lack chromophores. With rare
exceptions, derivatization of the analytes is necessary for bioanalysis. In this study, a rapid liquid chromatography–tandem
mass spectrometry method employing pre-column derivatization was developed and validated for the determination of alendronate
concentrations in human plasma. The procedure was based on derivatization with trimethylsilyldiazomethane during solid-phase
extraction on a weak anion-exchange solid-phase cartridge, which integrated sample purification and derivatization into one
step. The alendronate derivative was eluted with methanol. Chromatographic separation was performed on a Capcell PAK-C18 column.
The total run time was 6.5 min. The calibration curve was linear in the range 1.00–1,000 ng/mL using d6-alendronate as the
internal standard. The lower limit of quantification was 1.00 ng/mL. The intra- and inter-assay precision (in RSD) calculated
from quality control samples was less than 15%, and the accuracy was between 98.1% and 100.2%. The validated method was successfully
applied to characterize the pharmacokinetic profiles of alendronate following the intravenous infusion of 5 or 10 mg alendronate
sodium to healthy volunteers. 相似文献

The measurement of urine catecholamine and metanephrine concentrations is important for biochemical screening and diagnosis of pheochromocytoma.The goal of this work was to develop a simple liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry(LC-MS/MS)method for determining catecholamines and metanephrines in urine to replace an existing liquid chromatographic method using electrochemical detection.Urine samples were prepared using Oasis weak-cation-exchange cartridges.The eluate was analyzed on an Agilent ZORBAX Eclipse Plus Phenyl-Hexyl column in 3 min.Adrenaline,noradrenaline,dopamine,metanephrine,normetanephrine,and their deuterated internal standards were monitored in positive electrospray ionization mode by multiple reaction monitoring(MRM).No evidence of ion suppression was observed.The assay was linear up to 5μmol/L for adrenaline,5μmol/L for noradrenaline,6.1μmol/L for dopamine,5.6μmol/L for metanephrine,and 34.6μmol/L for normetanephrine,with lower limits of quantification of 5,5,12,6 and 7nmol/L,respectively.The intra-day and inter-day precisions for all analytes ranged from 0.59%to 4.64%and1.98%to 4.80%,respectively.External quality assurance samples were assayed and showed excellent agreement with the target values.This simple method provides an improved assay for determining urine catecholamines and metanephrines. 相似文献

An efficient microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) procedure coupled to gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) with electron
impact (EI) and chemical ionization (CI) has been developed to determine five organophosphate flame retardants (OPFRs) in
marine and river sediments. The effects of various operating parameters on the quantitative extraction of the OPFRs through
MAE were systematically investigated. Selected OPFRs were extracted from the sediments through MAE using 40 mL of acetone
at 120 °C for 20 min. The limits of quantitation ranged from 0.1 to 0.4 ng/g (dry weight) in 2 g of the sediment samples.
Moreover, as the chlorinated alkyl phosphates present no molecular ions in EI, GC–MS with furan-CI (furan-CI) was applied
to confirm their determination in complex environmental samples. The recoveries of the selected OPFRs in spiked sediment samples
ranged from 62% to 106% (relative standard derivation, 1−11%). The total concentrations of the selected OPFR residues in marine
and river sediments ranged from 1.0 to 12.6 ng/g. 相似文献

Authors developed a simple, sensitive, selective, rapid, rugged, and reproducible liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry
method for the quantification of eletriptan (EP) in human plasma using naratriptan (NP) as an internal standard (IS). Chromatographic
separation was performed on Ascentis Express C18, 50 × 4.6 mm, 2.7 μm column. Mobile phase was composed of 0.1% formic acid:
methanol (40:60 v/v), with 0.5 mL/min flow rate. Drug and IS were extracted by liquid–liquid extraction. EP and NP were detected with proton
adducts at m/z 383.2→84.3 and 336.2→97.8 in multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) positive mode, respectively. The method was validated with
the correlation coefficients of (r
2) ≥ 0.9963 over a linear concentration range of 0.5–250.0 ng/mL. This method demonstrated intra- and inter-day precision within
1.4–9.2% and 4.4–5.5% and accuracy within 96.8–103% and 98.5–99.8% for EP. This method is successfully applied in the bioequivalence
study of 24 human volunteers. 相似文献

The silica monolith with ionizable silanol groups and large surface area was found able to function as an offline cation exchange solid phase extraction (SPE) cartridge for extracting polar analytes. The prepared cartridge was housed in a 2-mL syringe fixed over a SPE vacuum manifold. The unique property of this silica monolithic cartridge was demonstrated by extracting epinephrine, normetanephrine and metanephrine from urine samples. These analytes were chosen as model compounds for testing because of their high hydrophilicity, and being candidates monitored for clinical diagnosis. The extracted analytes, after concentration and reconstitution were then quantitated by high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometer (HPLC/ESI/MS). Multiple reactions monitoring was carried out with transitions: 184 → 107, 184 → 134 and 198 → 148 for analyzing epinephrine, normetanephrine and metanephrine, respectively. The limit of detection was 3 ng/mL for metanephrine and 5 ng/mL for normetanephrine and epinephrine. The relative standard deviations of measurements ranged from 2 to 10%. The sorbent offered good linearity with coefficient of determination (r2) > 0.99, over a concentration range of 20-200 ng/mL. The relative recoveries ranged from 60 to 67%, 55 to 59% and 99 to 105% for epinephrine, normetanephrine and metanephrine, respectively. The prepared cartridge had shown potential and was found robust in extracting the polar analytes repeatedly without any significant loss in efficiency. 相似文献

This study reports the development and validation of a method using hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography–tandem mass
spectrometry (HILIC-MS/MS) for the analysis of cocaine and its metabolites benzoylecgonine (BE), ecgonine methyl ester (EME),
and cocaethylene (CE) in hair samples. Decontamination was performed as follows: Firstly, the aliquot of hair was briefly
rinsed with 2 mL dichloromethane, then was washed three times with 10 mL 0.01 M phosphate buffer, pH 6, for 15 min, followed
by 2 mL 2-propanol for less than 2 min, and, finally, a last rinse with 2 mL dichloromethane was again done. Cocaine compounds
were extracted from 10 mg of hair by incubation with 2 mL 0.1 M HCl at 50 °C for 12 h and purified by solid phase extraction
with Oasis MCX cartridges. Analysis was performed by LC-MS/MS using an Atlantis HILIC silica chromatographic column. The method
was fully validated. Linearity was established over the concentration range 0.020–10.0 ng/mg for cocaine (COC), 0.010–10.0 ng/mg
for BE and CE, and 0.005–2.0 ng/mg for EME, and the correlation coefficients were all >0.99. Extraction efficiency was >70%
for all analytes. Limits of detection were 0.0005 ng/mg for CE and 0.001 ng/mg for the other analytes (COC, BE, and EME).
Lower limits of quantification were the lowest points of the calibration curves with acceptable accuracy and precision (coefficient
of variation ≤20%). Intra- and inter-day imprecision ranged between 1.5% and 9.5% and 0.7% and 12.6%, respectively. Intra-
and inter-day inaccuracy ranged from 0.5% to 12.3% and from 0.7% to 7.1%, respectively. With regard to matrix effects, suppression
was <27.5% in all cases. The method was applied to the analysis of several samples derived from forensic cases. 相似文献

A fully automated method has been developed for analysis of eighteen antibacterial compounds, including penicillins, cephalosporins
and sulfonamides, in animal feed with limits of quantification in the range 0.25–5.79 μg kg−1. The method is based on pressurized liquid extraction of 3 g homogenized feed with water and online clean-up of 500 μL of
the extract with C18HD cartridges. The purified sample was directly analysed by liquid chromatography–electrospray tandem mass spectrometry (SPE–LC–ESI-MS–MS).
Chromatographic separation was achieved within 10 min by use of a C12 Phenomenex Hydro-RP reversed-phase analytical column and a mobile phase gradient (water + 0.1% formic acid–methanol + 0.1%
formic acid). The method was validated, revealing capability for detection of concentrations as low as 0.09 μg kg−1, decision limits (CCα) and detection capabilities (CCβ) in the range 10–174 μg kg−1 and 22–182 μg kg−1, respectively, and inter-day precision ranging from 0.7 to 8.3%. Recovery, with internal standard correction, was in the
range 93–134% for all analytes. The method was then applied to analysis of fifteen feed samples, nine of which contained at
least one antimicrobial at concentrations between 0.006 and 1.526 mg kg−1. The performance data and results from the method were compared with those from a previous method developed by our group,
using offline SPE, by analyzing the same set of samples by both methods. The online SPE approach resulted in slightly improved
sensitivity, with LODs of 0.09–2.12 μg kg−1 compared with 0.12–3.94 μg kg−1 by the offline approach. In general, better recovery was achieved by use of online purification (for 72% of the analytes)
and the correlation between the two methods was good. The main advantages of the new online method are rapid and automated
sample pre-treatment, and reduction of sample manipulation, enabling high-throughput analysis and highly accurate results.
Because of all these characteristics, the proposed method is applicable and could be deemed necessary within the field of
food control and safety. 相似文献

A simple and sensitive assay was developed and validated for the simultaneous quantification of rosuvastatin acid (RST), rosuvastatin-5S-lactone (RST-LAC), and N-desmethyl rosuvastatin (DM-RST), in buffered human plasma using liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS).
All the three analytes and the corresponding deuterium-labeled (d6) internal standards were extracted from 50 μL of buffered
human plasma by protein precipitation. The analytes were chromatographically separated using a Zorbax-SB Phenyl column (2.1 mm × 100 mm,
3.5 μm). The mobile phase comprised of a gradient mixture of 0.1% v/v glacial acetic acid in 10% v/v methanol in water (solvent A) and 40% v/v methanol in acetonitrile (solvent B). The analytes were separated at baseline within 6.0 min using a flow rate of 0.35 mL/min.
Mass spectrometry detection was carried out in positive electrospray ionization mode. The calibration curves for all three
analytes were linear (R ≥ 0.9964, n = 3) over the concentration range of 0.1–100 ng/mL for RST and RST-LAC, and 0.5–100 ng/mL for DM-RST. Mean extraction recoveries
ranged within 88.0–106%. Intra- and inter-run mean percent accuracy were within 91.8–111% and percent imprecision was ≤15%.
Stability studies revealed that all the analytes were stable in matrix during bench-top (6 h on ice–water slurry), at the
end of three successive freeze and thaw cycles and at −80°C for 1 month. The method was successfully applied in a clinical
study to determine the concentrations of RST and the lactone metabolite over 12-h post-dose in patients who received a single
dose of rosuvastatin. 相似文献

The benzodiazepine midazolam is a probe drug used to phenotype cytochrome P450 3A activity. In this situation, effective sedative
concentrations are neither needed nor desired, and in fact the use of very low doses is advantageous. We therefore developed
and validated an assay for the femtomolar quantification of midazolam and 1′-hydroxymidazolam in human plasma. Plasma (0.25 mL)
and 96-well-based solid-phase extraction were used for sample preparation. Extraction recoveries ranged between 75 and 92%
for both analytes. Extracts were chromatographed within 2 min on a Waters BEH C18 1.7 μm UPLC? column with a fast gradient
consisting of formic acid, ammonia, and acetonitrile. Midazolam and 1′-hydroxymidazolam were quantified using deuterium- and
13C-labeled internal standards and positive electrospray tandem mass spectrometry in the multiple reaction monitoring mode,
which yielded lower limits of quantification of 50 fg/mL (154 fmol/L) and 250 fg/mL (733 fmol/L) and a corresponding precision
of <20%. The calibrated concentration ranges were linear for midazolam (0.05–250 pg/mL) and 1′-hydroxymidazolam (0.25–125 pg/mL),
with correlation coefficients of >0.99. Within-batch and batch-to-batch precision in the calibrated ranges for both analytes
were <14% and <12%. No ion suppression was detectable, and plasma matrix effects were minimized to <15% (<25%) for midazolam
(1′-hydroxymidazolam). The assay was successfully applied to assess the kinetics of midazolam in two human volunteers after
the administration of single oral microgram doses (1–100 μg). This ultrasensitive assay allowed us to quantify the kinetics
of midazolam and 1′-hydroxymidazolam for at least 10 h, even after the administration of only 1 μg of midazolam. 相似文献

Biologically active forms of vitamin D are important analytical targets in both research and clinical practice. The current
technology is such that each of the vitamin D metabolites is usually analyzed by individual assay. However, current LC-MS
technologies allow the simultaneous metabolic profiling of entire biochemical pathways. The impediment to the metabolic profiling
of vitamin D metabolites is the low level of 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 in human serum (15–60 pg/mL). Here, we demonstrate that liquid–liquid or solid-phase extraction of vitamin D metabolites
in combination with Diels–Alder derivatization with the commercially available reagent 4-phenyl-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione
(PTAD) followed by ultra-performance liquid chromatography (UPLC)–electrospray/tandem mass spectrometry analysis provides
rapid and simultaneous quantification of 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D2, 24R,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 and 25-hydroxyvitamin D2 in 0.5 mL human serum at a lower limit of quantification of 25 pg/mL. Precision ranged from 1.6–4.8 % and 5–16 % for 25-hydroxyvitamin
D3 and 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, respectively, using solid-phase extraction.

This article describes an easy and innovative extraction procedure for cocaine and its primary metabolite, benzoylecgonine
(BE), from hair consisting of sonication with H2O/0.1% formic acid for 4 h. The same extract was used for screening with an enzyme-linked immunoassay (ELISA) and confirmation
by liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS). For the ELISA screening test a cutoff of 0.5 ng/mg was used
according to the Society of Hair Testing recommendations. LC–MS/MS limits of detection (LODs) were established to be 10 pg/mg
and 1 pg/mg for cocaine and BE, respectively. Linearity was obtained over a range of 0.2–5 ng/mg for BE (target analyte) in
the ELISA screening test, while in the LC–MS/MS method the range was 0.10–10 ng/mg for cocaine and 0.01–10 ng/mg for BE. Intra-
and interbatch coefficients of variation and mean relative errors were less than 20% for all analytes and concentrations studied.
The validated ELISA and LC–MS/MS methods were applied to 48 hair samples and the results of both methods were compared; ELISA
demonstrated a sensitivity and specificity of 89.2% and 10.8%. 相似文献

Accurate measurement of low levels of testosterone is critical for diagnosis and treatment of androgen disorders. The very low concentrations of testosterone in children, females, and males with androgen suppression therapies necessitate the use of mass spectrometry‐based methods. We aimed to develop a liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry method with simplified sample preparation and online solid‐phase extraction cleanup to achieve enhanced precision, accuracy, robustness, and cost‐effectiveness. The assay was linear from 10 to 20 000 pg/mL with an analytical recovery of 93–104%. The total coefficient of variation was 2.5, 1.9, and 1.7% at concentration levels of 348, 5432, and 10 848 pg/mL, respectively. No significant carryover was observed from samples with concentrations up to 20 000 pg/mL. No significant interference was observed from androstenedione, dehydroepiandrosterone, epi‐testosterone, and estriol. Comparison with CDC Hormone Standardization program (HoSt) reference samples with defined values (n = 40) showed a Deming regression slope of 0.963, intercept of 28.06 pg/mL, standard error of estimate was 66.9, a correlation coefficient of 0.9996, and a mean bias of ?0.6%. The method met the accuracy criteria by the CDC HoSt program. In addition, we achieved >12 000 injections on a single analytical column without significant performance deterioration due to the specific online solid‐phase extraction settings. 相似文献

We have developed a method using on-line solid-phase extraction–high-performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry
(SPE-HPLC-MS/MS) and isotope dilution quantification to measure atrazine and seven atrazine metabolites in urine. The metabolites
measured were hydroxyatrazine, diaminochloroatrazine, desisopropylatrazine, desethylatrazine, desethylatrazine mercapturate,
atrazine mercaturate and atrazine itself. Our method has good precision (relative standard deviations ranging from 4 to 20%
at 5, 10 and 50 ng/mL), extraction efficiencies of 67 to 102% at 5 and 25 ng/mL, relative recoveries of 87 to 112% at 5, 25,
50 and 100 ng/mL limits of detection (LOD) ranging from 0.03 to 2.80 ng/mL. The linear range of our method spans from the
analyte LOD to 100 ng/mL (40 ng/mL for atrazine and atrazine mercapturate) with R
2 values of greater than 0.999 and errors about the slope of less than 3%. Our method is rapid, cost-effective and suitable
for large-scale sample analyses and is easily adaptable to other biological matrices. More importantly, this method will allow
us to better assess human exposure to atrazine-related chemicals.

Vitamin D is an important determinant of bone health at all ages. The plasma concentrations of 25-hydroxy vitamin D (25-OH
D) and other metabolites are used as biomarkers for vitamin sufficiency and function. To allow for the simultaneous determination
of five vitamin D metabolites, 25-OH D3, 25-OH D2, 24,25-(OH)2 D3, 1,25-(OH)2 D3, and 1,25-(OH)2 D2, in low volumes of human plasma, an assay using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS)
was established. Plasma samples were spiked with isotope-labeled internal standards and pretreated using protein precipitation,
solid-phase extraction (SPE) and a Diels–Alder derivatization step with 4-phenyl-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione. The SPE recovery
rates ranged from 55% to 85%, depending on the vitamin D metabolite; the total sample run time was <5 min. Mass spectrometry
was conducted using positive ion electrospray ionization in the multiple reaction monitoring mode on a quadrupole–quadrupole-linear
ion trap instrument after pre-column addition of methylamine to increase the ionization efficiency. The intra- and inter-day
relative standard deviations were 1.6–4.1% and 3.7–6.8%, respectively. The limit of quantitation for these compounds was determined
to be between 10 and 20 pg/mL. The 25-OH D results were compared with values obtained for reference materials (DEQAS). In
addition, plasma samples were analyzed with two additional Diasorin antibody assays. All comparisons with conventional methods
showed excellent correlations (r
2 = 0.9738) for DEQAS samples, demonstrating the high degree of comparability of the new UHPLC-MS/MS technique to existing
methods. 相似文献

Oral fluid (OF) is an increasingly accepted matrix for drug testing programs, but questions remain about its usefulness for
monitoring cannabinoids. Expectorated OF specimens (n = 360) were obtained from 10 adult daily cannabis smokers before, during, and after 37 20-mg oral Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) doses over 9 days to characterize cannabinoid disposition in this matrix. Specimens were extracted
and analyzed by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry with electron-impact ionization for THC, 11-hydroxy-THC, cannabidiol,
and cannabinol, and negative chemical ionization for 11-nor-9-carboxy-THC (THCCOOH). Linear ranges for THC, 11-hydroxy-THC,
and cannabidiol were 0.25–50 ng/mL; cannabinol 1–50 ng/mL; and THCCOOH 5–500 pg/mL. THCCOOH was the most prevalent analyte
in 344 specimens (96.9%), with concentrations up to 1,390.3 pg/mL. 11-hydroxy-THC, cannabidiol, and cannabinol were detected
in 1, 1, and 3 specimens, respectively. THC was detected in only 13.8% of specimens. The highest THC concentrations were obtained
at admission (median 1.4 ng/mL, range 0.3–113.6) from previously self-administered smoked cannabis. A total of 2.5 and 3.7%
of specimens were THC-positive at the recommended Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (2 ng/mL) and
Driving Under the Influence of Drugs, Alcohol and Medicines (DRUID) (1 ng/mL) confirmation cutoffs, respectively. THC is currently
the only analyte for monitoring cannabis exposure in OF; however, these data indicate chronic therapeutic oral THC administration
and illicit oral THC use are unlikely to be identified with current guidelines. Measurement of THCCOOH may improve the detection
and interpretation of OF cannabinoid tests and minimize the possibility of OF contamination from passive inhalation of cannabis
smoke. 相似文献

An assay of norepinephrine (NE), epinephrine (E), dopamine (DA), normetanephrine (NE) and metanephrine (MN) based on high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) in combination with atmospheric pressure chemical ionization mass spectrometry (APcI-MS) is described. The catecholamines and metanephrines were extracted from urine and aqueous samples using Bio-Rex 70 cation-exchange resin and subjected to analysis by HPLC/APcI-MS. The separation was performed on a C18 column in 50 mM ammonium formate buffer, pH 3.0, using a flow rate of 0.8 mL/min. Acetonitrile was added post-column at a flow rate of 0.2 mL/min via a post-column addition tee. The total analysis time was 6.5 min. The quantitative analysis was performed using 3,4-dihydroxybenzylamine (DHBA) as the internal standard (I.S.). Selected ion monitoring detection was applied: m/z 170 (for NE), 184 (for E and NM), 154 (for DA), 198 (for MN) and 140 (for DHBA, I.S.). The limits of quantitation were 5 ng/mL for NE, E and DA and 2.5 ng/mL for NM and MN. The recovery ranged from 75 to 83% for each analyte. The method was found to be simple and highly selective for the determination of catecholamines and metanephrines in the urine of patients suspected of pheochromocytoma. 相似文献

A new quantitation method for the determination of drugs of abuse (opiates, amphetamine and derivatives, cocaine, methadone
and metabolites) in serum by using online extraction coupled to liquid chromatography (LC)–mass spectrometry (MS)/MS has been
developed. The online extraction is carried out using two extraction columns simultaneously and one analytical column. One
extraction column is loaded, while the other one is eluted by a gradient. The elution gradient also separates the analytes
in the analytical column. For the sample preparation, serum is spiked with a mixture of deuterated analogues of the drugs.
After protein precipitation with methanol/zinc sulphate, centrifugation, evaporation and reconstitution, the sample is injected
into the LC system. The quantitation is based on the analysis of two multiple reaction monitoring transitions per drug. The
recovery of the protein precipitation step is over 80% for all analytes. Intra- and interday precision, as relative standard
deviation, is lower than 6%, and in the case of accuracy, RE is lower than 15%. Only the most polar analytes showed matrix
effects. The limits of quantitation for the analysed compounds vary between 0.5 and 2.8 ng/mL. The developed method was used
to quantify basic drugs in samples “from driving under the influence of drugs” cases. The results were compared with those
obtained by using solid-phase extraction–GC–MS. 相似文献

An ion exchange method has been developed for the separation of uranium from trace level metallic impurities prior to their
determination by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES) in uranium materials. Selective separation
of uranium from trace level metallic impurities consisting Cr, Co, Cu, Fe, Mn, Cd, Gd, Dy, Ni, and Ca was achieved on anion
exchange resin Dowex 1 × 8 in sulphate medium. The resin (100–200 mesh, in chloride form) was packed in a small Teflon column
(7.8 cm × 0.8 cm I.D.) and brought into sulphate form by passing 0.2 N ammonium sulphate solution. Optimum experimental conditions
including pH and concentration of sulphate in the liquid phase were investigated for the effective uptake of uranium by the
column. Uranium was selectively retained on the column as anionic complex with sulphate, while impurities were passed through
the column. Post column solution was collected and analyzed by ICP-OES for the determination of metallic impurities. Up to
2,500 μg/mL of uranium was retained with >99% efficiency after passing 25 mL sample through the column at pH 3. Percentage
recoveries obtained for most of the metallic impurities were >95% with relative standard deviations <5%. The method established
was applied for the determination of gadolinium in urania–gadolinia (UO2–Gd2O3) ceramic nuclear fuel and excellent results were achieved. Solvent extraction method using tributylphosphate (TBP) as extractant
was also applied for the separation of uranium in urania–gadolinia nuclear fuel samples prior to the determination of gadolinium
by ICP-OES. The results obtained with the present method were found very comparable with those of the solvent extraction method. 相似文献
