A simple HPLC‐UV method was developed and validated for the quantification of pterostilbene (3,5‐dimethoxy‐4'‐hydroxy‐trans‐stilbene), a pharmacologically active phytoalexin in rat plasma. The assay was carried out by measuring the UV absorbance at 320 nm. Pterostilbene and the internal standard, 3,5,4'‐trimethoxy‐trans‐stilbene eluted at 5.7 and 9.2 min, respectively. The calibration curve (20–2000 ng/mL) was linear (R2 > 0.997). The lower limits of detection and of quantification were 6.7 and 20 ng/mL, respectively. The intra‐ and inter‐day precisions in terms of RSD were all lower than 6%. The analytical recovery ranged from 95.5 ± 3.7 to 103.2 ± 0.7% while the absolute recovery ranged from 101.9 ± 1.1 to 104.9 ± 4.4%. This simple HPLC method was subsequently applied in a pharmacokinetic study carried out in Sprague–Dawley rats. The terminal elimination half‐life and clearance of pterostilbene were 96.6 ± 23.7 min and 37.0 ± 2.5 mL/min/kg, respectively, while its absolute oral bioavailability was 12.5 ± 4.7%. Pterostilbene appeared to have better pharmacokinetic characteristics than its natural occurring analog, resveratrol. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

The determination of total deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) concentration is of great importance in many biological and bio-medical
analyses. The quantification of DNA is traditionally performed by UV spectroscopy; however the results can be affected greatly
by the sample matrix. The proposed method quantifies phosphorus in digested calf thymus DNA and human DNA by high performance
liquid chromatography (HPLC) combined with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). The method presented showed
excellent baseline separation between all four DNA mono-nucleotides and 5′UMP. The ability of LC-ICP-MS to provide an internal
check that only DNA derived phosphorus was counted in the assay was demonstrated by establishing a mass balance between the
total phosphorous signal from undigested DNA and that from the speciated DNA. Column recoveries ranging from 95% to 99% for
phosphorus resulted in a mass balance of 95% ± 0.5% for standard nucleotides, determined by LC-ICP-MS, compared to total DNA
determined by flow injection coupled to ICP-MS (FI-ICP-MS). The method for quantification was validated by analysis of NIST
SRM 2,372; a total speciated DNA recovery of 52.1 ng/μL, compared with an expected value of 53.6 ng/μL, was determined by
external calibration. From repeat measurements, a mass balance of 97% ± 0.5% for NIST DNA was achieved. The method limits
of detection for individual nucleotides were determined between 0.8 and 1.7 μg L−1 (31P) for individual nucleotides by LC-ICP-MS, and 360 ng L−1 for 5′AMP by direct nebulisation. 相似文献

This article details the development of a novel method that overcomes the drawbacks of sandwich ELISA (sELISA) and allows
reliable evaluation of simultaneous quantification of the amyloid (Aβ)-peptides, total-Aβ, Aβx-38, Aβx-40, and Aβx-42, in
rat brain by optimized sample purification and column-switching liquid chromatographic-tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS).
This method provides accurate analyses of total-Aβ, Aβx-38, Aβx-40, and Aβx-42 with a linear calibration range between 0.05
and 45 ng/mL. Verification for accuracy and precision of biological samples were determined by a standard addition and recovery
test, spiked with synthetic Aβ1-38, Aβ1-40, and Aβ1-42 into the rat brain homogenate. This method showed <20% relative error
and relative standard deviation, indicating high reproducibility and reliability. The brain concentrations of total-Aβ, Aβx-38,
Aβx-40, and Aβx-42 after oral administration of flurbiprofen in rats were measured by this method. Aβx-42 concentrations (4.57 ± 0.69 ng/g)
in rats administered flurbiprofen were lower than those in untreated rats (6.48 ± 0.93 ng/g). This was consistent with several
reports demonstrating that NSAIDs reduced the generation of Aβ. We report here a method that allows not only the quantification
of specific molecular species of Aβ but also simultaneous quantification of total-Aβ, Aβx-38, Aβx-40, and Aβx-42, thus overcoming
the drawbacks of sELISA. 相似文献

A high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method with fluorescence detection for the quantification of vancomycin in
human plasma was developed and validated. The method includes an extraction of vancomycin by deproteinization with acetonitrile.
The analyses were carried out at 258 nm as the emission wavelength while exciting at 225 nm on a reversed-phase column (30 cm × 4 mm
i.d. × 10 μm Waters Associates μBondapak C18) using a mobile phase composed of methanol and phosphate buffer at pH 6.3. Vancomycin
was quantitatively recovered from human plasma samples (>96%) with high values of precision. The separation was completed
within 27 min. The calibration curve was linear over the range from 5 to 1,000 ng/mL with the detection and quantification
limits of 2 ng/mL and 5 ng/mL, respectively. This method is suitable for the routine assay of plasma samples.

The performance of the dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction (DLLME) technique for the determination of eight UV filters
and a structurally related personal care species, benzyl salicylate (BzS), in environmental water samples is evaluated. After
extraction, analytes were determined by gas chromatography combined with mass spectrometry detection (GC-MS). Parameters potentially
affecting the performance of the sample preparation method (sample pH, ionic strength, type and volume of dispersant and extractant
solvents) were systematically investigated using both multi- and univariant optimization strategies. Under final working conditions,
analytes were extracted from 10 mL water samples by addition of 1 mL of acetone (dispersant) containing 60 μL of chlorobenzene
(extractant), without modifying either the pH or the ionic strength of the sample. Limits of quantification (LOQs) between
2 and 14 ng L−1, inter-day variability (evaluated with relative standard deviations, RSDs) from 9% to 14% and good linearity up to concentrations
of 10,000 ng L−1 were obtained. Moreover, the efficiency of the extraction was scarcely affected by the type of water sample. With the only
exception of 2-ethylhexyl-p-dimethylaminobenzoate (EHPABA), compounds were found in environmental water samples at concentrations between 6 ± 1 ng L−1 and 26 ± 2 ng mL−1. 相似文献

A method for determining the size of silver nanoparticles and their quantification by asymmetric flow field-flow fractionation
coupled with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) is proposed and was tested in consumer products. Experimental
conditions were studied in detail to avoid aggregation processes or alteration of the original size distributions. Additionally,
losses from sorption processes onto the channel membrane were minimized for correct quantification of the nanoparticles. Mobile
phase composition, injection/focusing, and fractionation conditions were evaluated in terms of their influence on both separation
resolution and recovery. The ionic strength, pH, and the presence of ionic and nonionic surfactants had a strong influence
on both separation and recovery of the nanoparticles. In general, better results were obtained under those conditions that
favored charge repulsions with the membrane. Recovery values of 83 ± 8% and 93 ± 4% with respect to the content of silver
nanoparticles were achieved for the consumer products studied. Silver nanoparticle standards were used for size calibration
of the channel. The results were compared with those obtained by photon correlation spectroscopy and images taken by transmission
electron microscopy. The quantification of silver nanoparticles was performed by direct injection of ionic silver standard
solutions into the ICP-MS system, integration of the corresponding peaks, and interpolation of the fractogram area. A limit
of detection of 5.6 μg L-1 silver, which corresponds to a number concentration of 1×1012 L-1 for nanoparticles of 10 nm, was achieved for an injection volume of 20 μL. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to develop a new precise and accurate CZE-DAD method for honeybee venom analysis using cytochrome
c as an internal standard. The 64.5 cm total length, 56 cm effective length, 75 μm ID, and 360 μm OD uncoated fused-silica
capillary was used. The samples were injected into the capillary under a 50-mbar pressure for 7 s. There were 15 kV of electric
field across the capillary applied. The current intensity was 26 μA. The separation was carried out at 25 °C. The analysis
was run with the normal electrode polarity. The following steps and parameters were taken into account for the validation
of the developed method: selectivity, precision, accuracy, linearity, limit of detection and limit of quantitation. All steps
of the validation procedure proved that the developed analytical procedure was suitable for its intended purpose. Possibly
this was the first study in which several honeybee venom components were separated and five of them were identified by capillary
zone electrophoresis. In addition, the developed method was applied for quantitative analysis of 38 honeybee venom samples.
The content (relative to the dry venom mass) of analyzed peptides in honeybee venom samples collected in 2002–2007 was as
follows: apamine from 0.93% to 4.34% (mean, 2.85 ± 0.79%); mast cell degranulating peptide (MCDP) from 1.46% to 4.37% (mean,
2.82 ± 0.64%); phospholipase A2 from 7.41% to 20.25% (mean, 12.95 ± 3.09%); melittin from 25.40% to 60.27%, (mean, 45.91 ± 9.78%). The results were compared
with the experimental data obtained for the same venom samples analyzed earlier by the HPLC method. It was stated that HPCE
and HPLC data did not differ significantly and that the HPCE method was the alternative for the HPLC method. Moreover, using
the results obtained principal component analysis (PCA) was applied to clarify the general distribution patterns or similarities
of four major honeybee venom constituents collected from two different bee strains in various months and years. PCA has shown
that the strain of bee appears to be the only criteria for bee venom sample classification. Strong correlations between apamine,
MCDP, phospholipase A2, and melittin were confirmed. These correlations have to be taken into account in the honeybee venom standardization. The
developed method due to its simplicity can be easily automated and incorporated into routine operations both in the bee venom
identification, quality control, and standardization of the product. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to validate a reliable analytical method for pharmacokinetic study of ceftibuten in human plasma
by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) system with UV detection. Ceftizoxime was used as the internal standard.
After plasma sample was precipitated with acetonitrile and dichloromethane, the supernatant was directly injected into the
HPLC system. Separation was performed on a Capcell Pak C18 UG120 column (4.6 mm × 250 mm, 5 μm particles) with a mobile phase of acetonitrile/50 mM ammonium acetate (5: 95, v/v) and
UV detection at a wavelength of 262 nm. The intra- and inter-day precision expressed as the relative standard deviation was
less than 15%. The lower limit of quantification was 0.5 hg/mL of ceftibuten using 0.5 mL of plasma. The calibration curve
was linear in concentration range of 0.5–30 μg/mL (r
2 = 0.9998). The mean accuracy was 96–102%. The coefficient of variation (precision) in the intra- and inter-day validation
was 0.9–3.9 and 0.9–2.4%, respectively. The pharmacokinetics of ceftibuten was evaluated after a single oral administration
of 400 mg to healthy volunteers. The AUC0–9 h, c
max, T
max, and T
1/2 were 86.6 ± 12.7 μg h/mL, 18.4 ± 1.5 μg/mL, 2.63 ± 0.83 and 2.65 ± 0.41 h, respectively. The method was demonstrated to be
highly reproducible and feasible for pharmacokinetic studies of ceftibuten in eight volunteers after oral administration (400
mg as ceftibuten). 相似文献

This study provides a versatile validated method to determine the total vitamin C content, as the sum of the contents of L-ascorbic acid (L-AA) and dehydroascorbic acid (DHAA), in several fruits and vegetables and its degradability with storage
time. Seven horticultural crops from two different origins were analyzed using an ultra-high-performance liquid chromatographic–photodiode
array (UHPLC-PDA) system, equipped with a new trifunctional high strength silica (100% silica particle) analytical column
(100 mm × 2.1 mm, 1.7 μm particle size) using 0.1% (v/v) formic acid as mobile phase, in isocratic mode. This new stationary phase, specially designed for polar compounds, overcomes
the problems normally encountered in HPLC and is suitable for the analysis of large batches of samples without L-AA degradation.
In addition, it proves to be an excellent alternative to conventional C18 columns for the determination of L-AA in fruits
and vegetables. The method was fully validated in terms of linearity, detection (LOD) and quantification (LOQ) limits, accuracy,
and inter/intra-day precision. Validation experiments revealed very good recovery rate of 96.6 ± 4.4% for L-AA and 103.1 ± 4.8
% for total vitamin C, good linearity with r
2
-values >0.999 within the established concentration range, excellent repeatability (0.5%), and reproducibility (1.6%) values.
The LOD of the method was 22 ng/mL whereas the LOQ was 67 ng/mL. It was possible to demonstrate that L-AA and DHAA concentrations
in the different horticulture products varied oppositely with time of storage not always affecting the total amount of vitamin
C during shelf-life. Locally produced fruits have higher concentrations of vitamin C, compared with imported ones, but vegetables
showed the opposite trend. Moreover, this UHPLC-PDA methodology proves to be an improved, simple, and fast approach for determining
the total content of vitamin C in various food commodities, with high sensitivity, selectivity, and resolving power within
3 min of run analysis. 相似文献

During heat sterilization of peritoneal dialysis solutions, glucose is partially transformed into glucose degradation products
(GDPs), which significantly reduce the biocompatibility of these medicinal products. Targeted α-dicarbonyl screening identified
glyoxal, methylglyoxal, 3-deoxyglucosone, 3,4-dideooxyglucosone-3-ene, glucosone, and 3-deoxygalactosone as the major six
GDPs with α-dicarbonyl structure. In the present study, an ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography method was developed
which allows the separation of all relevant α-dicarbonyl GDPs within a run time of 15 min after derivatization with o-phenylenediamine. Hyphenated diode array detection/tandem mass spectrometry detection provides very robust quantification
and, at the same time, unequivocal peak confirmation. Systematic evaluation of the derivatization process resulted in an optimal
derivatization period that provided maximal derivatization yield, minimal de novo formation (uncertainty range ±5%), and maximal
sample throughput. The limit of detection of the method ranged from 0.13 to 0.19 μM and the limit of quantification from 0.40
to 0.57 μM. Relative standard deviations were below 5%, and recovery rates ranged between 91% and 154%, dependent on the type
and concentration of the analyte (in 87 out of 90 samples, recovery rates were 100 ± 15%). The method was then applied for
the analysis of commercial peritoneal dialysis fluids (nine different product types, samples from three lots of each). 相似文献

A method is demonstrated for analysis of vitamin D fortified dietary supplements that eliminates virtually all chemical pretreatment
prior to analysis, which is referred to as a “dilute-and-shoot” method. Three mass spectrometers, in parallel, plus a UV detector,
an evaporative light-scattering detector (ELSD), and a corona charged aerosol detector (CAD) were used to allow a comparison
of six detectors simultaneously. Ultraviolet data were analyzed using internal standard, external standard, and response factor
approaches. The contents of gelcaps that contained 2,000 IU (50 μg) vitamin D3 in rice bran oil, diluted to 100 mL, were analyzed without the need for lengthy saponification and extraction. Vitamin D3 was analyzed using UV detection, extracted ion chromatograms, selected ion monitoring (SIM) atmospheric pressure chemical
ionization mass spectrometry (APCI-MS), and two transitions of multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) APCI-MS. The internal standard,
external standard, and response factor methods gave values of 0.5870 ± 0.0045, 0.5893 ± 0.0041, and 0.5889 ± 0.0045 μg/mL,
respectively, by UV detection. The values obtained by MS were 0.6117 ± 0.0140, 0.6018 ± 0.0244, and 0.5848 ± 0.0146 μg/mL
by SIM and two transitions of MRM, respectively. The triacylglycerols in the oils were analyzed using full-scan APCI-MS, electrospray
ionization (ESI) MS, up to MS4, an ELSD, and a CAD. The method proved to be very sensitive for vitamin D3, as well as triacylglycerols (TAGs), allowing identification of intact TAGs containing fatty acids up to 28 carbons in length.
LC-ESI-MS of glycerin polymers is also demonstrated. 相似文献

A simple HPLC-MS/MS method for simultaneous determination of loureirin A and loureirin B in rat urine, feces, and bile after
oral administration of 10.6 g/kg of longxuejie (one rare traditional Chinese medicinal herb) was developed for the first time.
The analytes and buspirone (internal standard) were separated on a C5 column with acetonitrile–water (containing 0.1% formic acid) as mobile phase at a flow rate of 0.4 min/mL. The detector was
a Q-trap™ mass spectrometer with an electrospray ionization interface operating in the multiple reaction monitoring mode.
Calibration curves of loureirin A in rat urine, feces, and bile were linear over the concentration range of 1.00–5,000 ng/mL.
Loureirin B in rat urine, feces, and bile ranged between 0.08 and 20, 0.20 and 20, and 0.10 and 500 ng/mL, respectively. Validation
revealed that the method was specific, accurate, and precise. The fully validated method was applied to the excretion study
of loureirin A and loureirin B in rats. After oral administration of 10.6 g/kg longxuejie, cumulative excretion amount of
loureirin A and loureirin B in rat urine were 2.94 ± 0.81 and 0.36 ± 0.16 μg at 72 h, respectively. Of the total dose, 5.35%
of loureirin A and 5.46% of loureirin B were excreted from feces at 60 h. The cumulative amounts of loureirin A and loureirin
B in rat bile reached 4.49 ± 0.98 and 5.11 ± 0.83 μg, respectively, at 36 h after dosing, accounting for 0.054% and 0.056%
of the total dose. 相似文献

Urinary 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) has been widely used as a biomarker of oxidative DNA damage. Measurements of
8-OHdG in urinary samples are challenging owing to the low level of 8-OHdG and the complex matrix. In this study, a novel
molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) monolithic column was synthesized with guanosine as a dummy template which was used as
the medium for in-tube solid-phase microextraction (SPME). In-tube SPME coupled with HPLC/UV detection for extraction and
determination of urinary 8-OHdG was developed. The synthesized MIP monolithic column exhibited high extraction efficiency
owing to its greater phase ratio with convective mass transfer and inherent selectivity. The enrichment factor for 8-OHdG
was found to be 76 and the limits of detection and quantification of the method for urinary samples were 3.2 nmol/L (signal-to-noise
ratio 3) and 11 nmol/L (signal-to-noise ratio 10), respectively. The MIP’s selectivity also made the sample preparation procedure and chromatographic separation much easier. The linear range of the
proposed method was from 0.010 to 5.30 μmol/L (r = 0.9997), with a relative standard deviation of 1.1–6.8%, and the recovery for spiked urine samples was 84 ± 3%. The newly
developed method was successfully applied to determine urinary samples of healthy volunteers, coking plant workers, and cancer
patients. The 8-OHdG level in cancer patients was significantly higher than that in healthy people. 相似文献

4-Hydroxy-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone (HPB)-releasing DNA adducts are formed by metabolic activation of the tobacco-specific
nitrosamines 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone (NNK) and N′-nitrosonornicotine (NNN). NNK and NNN are considered carcinogenic to humans by the International Agency for Research on
Cancer. Existing analytical methods for determination of HPB-releasing DNA adducts require 0.3–2.0 g of human target tissues
such as lung and esophagus. For adduct determination in milligram amounts of biopsy samples, an ultrasensitive and specific
method is presented using capillary gas chromatography coupled to a high-resolution mass spectrometer operated in the negative
chemical ionization mode (GC-NCI-HRMS). The method has a limit of detection of 4.6 fmol HPB, a limit of quantification of
14.9 fmol HBP and a recovery of 45 ± 15%. Intra- and inter-day imprecision for N = 6 samples were calculated with coefficients of variation of <3.1%. Method applicability was evaluated with biopsies of
esophageal mucosa (N = 14) yielding 5.6 ± 1.9 mg tissue and a mean adduct level of 6.13 ± 9.35 pmol HPB/mg DNA. 相似文献

An LC-MS/MS method for the determination of the atypic neuroleptic clozapine and its two main metabolites norclozapine and
clozapine-N-oxide has been developed and validated for serum and urine. After addition of d4-clozapine as deuterated internal standard
a fast single-step liquid–liquid extraction under alkaline conditions and with ethyl acetate as organic solvent followed.
The analytes were chromatographically separated on a Synergi Polar RP column using gradient elution with 1 mM ammonium formate
and methanol. Data acquisition was performed on a QTrap 2000 tandem mass spectrometer in multiple reaction monitoring mode
with positive electrospray ionization. Two transitions were monitored for each analyte in order to fulfill the established
identification criteria. The validation included the determination of the limits of quantification (1.0 ng/mL for all analytes
in serum and 2.0 ng/mL for all analytes in urine), assessment of matrix effects (77% to 92% in serum, 21 to 78% in urine)
and the determination of extraction efficiencies (52% to 85% for serum, 59% to 88% for urine) and accuracy data. Imprecision
was <10%, only the quantification of norclozapine in urine yielded higher relative standard deviations (11.2% and 15.7%).
Bias values were below ±10%. Dilution of samples had no impact on the correctness for clozapine and norclozapine in both matrices
and for clozapine-N-oxide in serum. For quantification of clozapine-N-oxide in urine a calibration with diluted calibrators has to be used. Calibration curves were measured from the LOQ up to
2,000 ng/mL and proved to be linear over the whole range with regression coefficients higher than 0.98. The method was finally
applied to several clinical serum and urine samples and a cerebro-spinal fluid sample of an intoxicated 13-month-old girl. 相似文献

The development of a simple and rapid high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method for the determination of the new
antiepileptic drug rufinamide (RFN) in human plasma and saliva is reported. Samples (250 μl) are alkalinized with ammonium
hydroxide (pH 9.25) and extracted with dichloromethane using metoclopramide as internal standard. Separation is achieved with
a Spherisorb silica column (250 × 4.6 mm i.d., 5 μm) at 30 °C using as mobile phase a solution of methanol/dichloromethane/n-hexane
10/25/65 (vol/vol/vol) mixed with 6 ml ammonium hydroxide. The instrument used was a Shimadzu LC-10Av chromatograph and flow
rate was 1.5 ml min-1, with a LaChrom L-7400 UV detector set at 230 nm. Calibration curves are linear [r
2 = 0.998 ± 0.002 for plasma (n = 10) and r
2 = 0.999 ± 0.001 for saliva (n = 9)] over the range of 0.25–20.0 μg ml-1, with a limit of quantification at 0.25 μg ml-1. Precision and accuracy are within current acceptability standards. The assay is suitable for pharmacokinetic studies in
humans and for therapeutic drug monitoring. 相似文献

The opioid tilidine is a prodrug which is hepatically metabolized to active nortilidine and bisnortilidine. Due to the increasing
abuse of tilidine by drug users and the lack of a specific immunoassay, we developed an analytical method for the quantification
of tilidine, nortilidine, and bisnortilidine in urine suitable for screening. In a following step, this method was used to
establish data on excretion kinetics of the substances in order to evaluate the time window of detection after a single oral
dose of tilidine/naloxone and also was applied to authentic urine samples from correctional facilities. Urine samples were
mixed with internal standard solution and extracted on a weak cation exchanger at pH 6 using a Symbiosis Pico system. The
chromatographic separation was achieved within a 3.5-min run time on a Phenylhexyl column (50 × 2.0 mm, 5 μm) via gradient
elution (methanol and 0.2% formic acid) at a flow rate of 0.50 mL/min. The ESI-MS/MS was performed on a QTrap 3,200 in positive
multiple reaction monitoring mode using two mass transitions per analyte. Validating the method resulted in a lower limit
of quantification of 1.0 μg/L followed by a linear calibration range to 100 μg/L for each analyte (r
2 > 0.99). The analytical method allowed the detection of a single dose of a commercially available tilidine solution up to
7 days after administration. Using this highly sensitive method, 55 of 3,665 urine samples were tested positive. 相似文献

Ubiquinone is an important biologically active compound in the living body. The determination of ubiquinone in human plasma
is useful for the investigation of bioavailability of ubiquinone and for early diagnosis of several diseases. Therefore, we
developed a high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with chemiluminescence detection method for the analysis of ubiquinone
in plasma samples. The method is based on luminol chemiluminescence detection of super oxide anion that is generated by the
redox cycle reaction between ubiquinone and dithiothreitol. The HPLC system involved an octyl column with a mobile phase of
methanol. Ubiquinone eluted from the column was mixed with dithiothreitol and luminol solutions simultaneously, and generated
chemiluminescence was monitored by chemiluminescence detector. The calibration curve for standard ubiquinone solution was
linear from 0.09 to 43.2 μg/mL (0.45–216 ng on column) with the correlation coefficient of 0.999, and the detection limit
(S/N = 3) was 26 ng/mL (130 pg on column). Using the proposed HPLC method, the peak of ubiquinone in human plasma could be
clearly detected on the chromatogram without any interference from plasma components. 相似文献

An analytical procedure was developed and validated for the simultaneous identification and quantification of nicotine, cotinine,
trans-3′-hydroxycotinine, and norcotinine in 0.5 mL of human oral fluid collected with the Quantisal™ oral fluid collection device.
Solid phase extraction and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry with multiple reaction monitoring were utilized.
Endogenous and exogenous interferences were extensively evaluated. Limits of quantification were empirically identified by
decreasing analyte concentrations. Linearity was from 1 to 2,000 ng/mL for nicotine and norcotinine, 0.5 to 2,000 ng/mL for
trans-3′-hydroxycotinine, and 0.2 to 2,000 ng/mL for cotinine. Correlation coefficients for calibration curves were >0.99 and analytes
quantified within ±13% of target at all calibrator concentrations. Suitable analytical recovery (>91%) was achieved with extraction
efficiencies >56% and matrix effects <29%. This assay will be applied to the quantification of nicotine and metabolites in
oral fluid in a clinical study determining the most appropriate nicotine biomarker concentrations differentiating active,

Pyrethroid insecticides widely used in forestry, agricultural, industrial, and residential applications have potential for
human exposure. Short sample preparation time and sensitive, economical high-throughput assays are needed for biomonitoring
studies that analyze a large number of samples. An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used for determining 3-phenoxybenzoic
acid (3-PBA), a general urinary biomarker of exposure to some pyrethroid insecticides. A mixed-mode solid-phase extraction
reduced interferences from acid hydrolyzed urine and gave 110 ± 6% recoveries from spiked samples. The method limit of quantification
was 2 μg/L. Urine samples were collected from forestry workers that harvest pine cone seeds where pyrethroid insecticides
were applied at ten different orchards. At least four samples for each worker were collected in a 1-week period. The 3-PBA
in workers classified as high, low, or no exposure based on job analysis over all sampling days was 6.40 ± 9.60 (n = 200), 5.27 ± 5.39 (n = 52), and 3.56 ± 2.64 ng/mL (n = 34), respectively. Pair-wise comparison of the differences in least squares means of 3-PBA concentrations among groups
only showed a significant difference between high and no exposure. Although this difference was not significant when 3-PBA
excretion was normalized by creatinine excretion, the general trend was still apparent. No significant differences were observed
among days or orchards. This ELISA method using a 96-well plate was performed as a high-throughput tool for analyzing around
300 urine samples measured in triplicate to provide data for workers exposure assessment. 相似文献
