A specific and sensitive liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry method was developed for the determination of zolmitriptan and N-desmethylzolmitriptan in human plasma. The analytes and the internal standard (IS) paroxetine were extracted by liquid–liquid extraction with a mixture of saturated ethyl acetate:dichloromethane (4:1) and were separated using an isocratic mobile phase on a XTerra RP18 column. The mobile phase used was acetonitrile: 5 mM ammonium acetate: formic acid (50:50:0.053, v/v/v). Zolmitriptan and N-desmethylzolmitriptan in a range of 0.25–20 ng mL−1 were easily quantified. The validated method can be applied to pharmacokinetic and bioequivalence studies.
相似文献Direct resolution of the enantiomers of the racemic drugs ketamine and lisinopril has been achieved by TLC. Enantiomerically pure tartaric acid and mandelic acid were used as chiral impregnating reagents and as mobile phase additives. When (−)-mandelic acid was used as chiral impregnating reagent use of ethyl acetate–methanol–water 3:1:1 (v/v) as mobile phase enabled successful resolution of the enantiomers of both compounds. For lisinopril, the mobile phase acetonitrile–methanol–water–dichloromethane 7:1:1:0.5 (v/v) was successful when (+)-tartaric acid was used as impregnating agent. When (+)-tartaric acid was used as mobile phase additive the mobile phase acetonitrile–methanol–(+)-tartaric acid (0.5% in water, pH 5)–glacial acetic acid 7:1:1.1:0.7 (v/v) enabled successful resolution of the enantiomers of lisinopril. The effects on resolution of temperature, pH, and the amount of chiral selector were also studied. The separated enantiomers were isolated and identified. Spots were detected with iodine vapour. LODs were 0.25 and 0.27 μg for each enantiomer of ketamine with (+)-tartaric acid and (−)-mandelic acid, respectively, whereas for lisinopril LODs were 0.14 and 0.16 μg for each enantiomer with (+)-tartaric acid (both conditions) and (−)-mandelic acid, respectively.
相似文献Two new, rapid, precise, accurate and specific chromatographic methods were described for the simultaneous determination of olmesartan medoxomil and hydrochlorothiazide in combined tablet dosage forms. The first method was based on reversed phase liquid chromatography using an Eurosphere 100 RP C18 column (250 × 4.6 mm ID, 5 μm). The mobile phase was methanol–0.05% o-phosphoric acid (60:40 v/v) at a flow rate of 1.0 mL min−1. Commercially available tablets and laboratory mixtures containing both drugs were assayed and detected using a UV detector at 270 nm. The second method involved silica gel 60 F254 high performance thin layer chromatography and densitometric detection at 254 nm using acetonitrile–ethyl acetate–glacial acid (7:3:0.4 v/v/v) as the mobile phase. Calibration curves ranged between 200–600 and 125–375 ng spot−1 for olmesartan and hydrochlorothiazide, respectively.
相似文献A rapid and sensitive method for the quantitative determination of picroside II in rat plasma was developed and validated using liquid chromatographic separation with tandem mass spectrometric detection. The analytes of interest were extracted from rat plasma samples by ethyl acetate after acidification with 1.0% acetic acid solution. Chromatographic separation was achieved on a Hypersil GOLD column (50 × 2.1 mm I.D., 5 μm) using a mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile–0.1% formic acid solution (30:70, v/v) at a flow rate of 0.2 mL min−1. Detection was performed on a triple quadrupole tandem mass spectrometer by selected reaction monitoring (SRM) mode via electrospray ionization (ESI). The calibration curve was linear in the concentration range of 1.00–400 ng mL−1 in rat plasma, with a 1.00 ng mL−1 lower limit of quantification (LLOQ). Satisfactory results were achieved for intraday repeatability [relative standard deviation (RSD) = 6.4–12.4%] and inter-day precision (RSD = 6.8–14.7%). The accuracy in terms of relative error ranged from −2.1 to 10.0%. The extraction recoveries of picroside II and icariin (internal standard) were 80.0 and 89.3%, respectively. The developed method was successfully employed to determine picroside II plasma concentrations after oral administration to Wistar rats.
相似文献ent-11α-Hydroxy-15-oxo-kaur-16-en-19-oic acid (5F), a diterpenoid isolated from the Chinese herb Pteris semipinnata L, has been suggested to show antitumor properties. A simple and sensitive LC method was developed for the determination of 5F in rabbit plasma. The method involved liquid–liquid extraction using ethyl acetate under acidic conditions using naproxen as an internal standard. Separations were performed on a reversed-phase column with a mixture of 1% (v/v) glacial acetic acid and methanol (45:55, v/v) as mobile phase and UV detection was utilized at 242 nm. The calibration plot was linear in the range 0.20–10.0 μg mL−1 (correlation coefficients r 2 > 0.998). The detection limit was 0.20 μg mL−1, mean extraction recovery was above 82%, intra-day precision of the method was less than 6.4%, and inter-day precision was better than 8.7%, respectively. The validated assay was found to be suitable for the pharmacokinetic study of 5F in rabbits.
相似文献A new three-phase solvent system, n-hexane–acetonitrile–dichloromethane–water–ethyl acetate (5:5:1:5:1.5, v/v/v/v/v) was developed for the high-speed counter-current chromatographic (HSCCC) separation and purification of five bioactive constituents, syringic acid (1), vomifoliol (2), vanillic acid (3), 6-hydroxy-2-benzoxazolinone (4), and 2-benzoxazolinone (5), from Acanthus ilicifolius.
相似文献Liquid chromatography–electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry has been used for rapid, selective, and sensitive quantitative analysis of gallic acid in rat plasma. Sample pretreatment involved a one-step extraction using ethyl acetate with protocatechic acid as internal standard. Separation was on a C18 column using an isocratic mobile phase, consisting of methanol-0.1% aqueous formic acid (40:60, v/v) at 0.2 mL min−1. The stability of gallic acid was evaluated in acidified and non-acidified plasma. The method was validated then successfully applied to a pharmacokinetic study in rats after oral administration of rhubarb extract.
相似文献A rapid, simple, sensitive and specific liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry method was developed and validated for simultaneous quantification of itopride hydrochloride and domperidone in human plasma. Both drugs were extracted by liquid–liquid extraction with ethyl acetate and saturated borax solution. The chromatographic separation was performed on a reversed-phase C18 column with a mobile phase of water–methanol (2:98, v/v) containing 0.5% formic acid. The protonated analyte was quantitated in positive ionization by multiple reaction monitoring with a mass spectrometer. The assay exhibited linearity over the concentration range of 3.33–500 ng mL−1 for itopride hydrochloride and 3.33–100 ng mL−1 for domperidone in human plasma. The precursor to product ion transitions of m/z 359.1–72.3 and 426.0–147.2 were used to measure itopride hydrochloride and domperidone respectively. The method was found suitable for the analysis of plasma samples collected during phase 1 pharmacokinetics study of itopride HCl 50 mg and domperidone 20 mg in 12 healthy volunteers after single oral doses of the combination drug.
相似文献The reaction of 2-bromopropanoyl chloride with lithium ethyl acetate generated in situ by the reaction of equimolar amounts of lithium diisopropylamide with ethyl acetate forms, depending on the conditions (temperature, time, reagent ratio), diethyl 2,2′-(3-methyloxirane-2,2-diyl)diacetate, 2,2-dibromo-N,N-diisopropylpropanamide, and ethyl (5-methyl-4-oxo-4,5-dihydrofuran-2-yl)acetate as minor by-products along with the expected acylation product ethyl 4-bromo-3-oxopentanoate. The reaction with 2 or 5 equiv of lithium ethyl acetate (–78°C → –20°C) gave, together with the mentioned α-bromo ester, ethyl (5-methyl-4-oxo-4,5-dihydrofuran-2-yl)acetate formed as a result of transformations of the adduct of the second LiCH2CO2Et molecule and ethyl-4-bromo-3-oxopentanoate. The reaction 2-bromopropanoyl chloride with sodium malonic ester involves acylation of enol form of the primary expected acylation product to afford dimethyl |2-bromo-1-[(2-bromopropanoyl)oxy]propylidene-malonate.
相似文献A selective and highly sensitive high performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization mass spectrometry method has been developed for determination of ezetimibe concentrations in human plasma. Ezetimibe was extracted from plasma with ethyl acetate followed by evaporation of the organic layer and, then, reconstitution of the residue in mobile phase before injection to chromatograph. The mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile-ammonium acetate (10 mM, pH 3.0), 75:25 (v/v). An aliquot of 10 μL was chromatographically analyzed on a prepacked Zorbax XDB-ODS C18 column (2.1 × 100 mm, 3.5 micron). Detection of analytes was achieved by mass spectrometry with atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) interface in the negative ion mode operated under the multiple-reaction monitoring mode (m/z transition: ezetimibe 408–271). Standard curves were linear (r = 0.998) over the wide ezetimibe concentration range of 0.05–30.0 ng mL−1 with acceptable accuracy and precision. The limit of detection was 0.02 ng mL−1. The validated LC–APCI–MS method has been used successfully throughout a bioequivalence study on an ezetimibe generic product in 24 healthy male volunteers.
相似文献Pongamia pinnata Linn. (Papilionaceae) seeds have gained great commercial and industrial importance owing to their high oil content. Presently, there is no appropriate TLC based method available for standardization of P. pinnata. A simple, robust and reproducible TLC method for the determination of Karanjin is reported in the seeds of P. pinnata. The method involves separation of components by TLC on pre-coated silica gel G 60 F254 plates developed on toluene: ethyl acetate (7:3 v/v) and detection at 260 nm in absorbance mode. The sensitivity of the method was found to be 100 ng. The linearity range was 50–300 ng. Four samples of P. pinnata from different geographical locations were tested for their karanjin content using the developed method. The proposed method was found to be robust, precise, and accurate, it therefore holds potential for detection, monitoring and quantification of karanjin in Pongamia pinnata.
相似文献HPTLC is a useful and practical analytical tool to characterize plant compositions. This study was focused on exploring the results of high-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC) analysis, particularly as a useful tool for the authentication of Allanblackia parviflora seed and kernel cakes. Bulked samples from sixteen different Ghanaian communities were analysed by HPTLC and their fingerprints were compared. The optimum experimental conditions were established: sample weight of 2.0 g, methanol:water (80:20 v/v) as extraction solvent, 30 min extraction time and twice extraction, ethyl acetate:methanol:water (100:16.5:13.5 v/v) as mobile phase, vanillic acid as derivatisation agent and 7 min of plate heating time after derivatisation. The HPTLC profile generated from extracts across 16 communities and 157 trees was very reproducible and demonstrates the robustness of the technique in characterising the profile.
