A sensitive rapid method for the simultaneous determination of four major active alkaloids (dehydrocavidine, coptisine, dehydroapocavidine, and tetradehydroscoulerine, in abbreviation thereafter called YHL-I, YHL-II, YHL-III, and YHL-IV, respectively) from a Chinese traditional medicine Corydalis saxicola Bunting. (Yanhuanglian) in rat plasma and urine was established and validated. The assay for these substances in plasma and urine was based on HPLC coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) detection using multiple reaction monitoring mode (MRM) with berberine and clenbuterol as internal standards. The plasma and urine sample were deproteinated by adding methanol prior to liquid chromatography where separation was performed on a Luna column (5 microm, 100 x 2.00 mm) and an Agilent Zorbax SB-C18 guard column (5 microm, 20 x 4 mm). The method was validated with the concentration range 1-1000 ng/mL in plasma and 10-1000 ng/mL in urine for the four test compounds, and the calibration curves were linear with correlation coefficients >0.999. The lowest limits of quantitation for all four substances were 1 ng/mL in 0.1 mL rat plasma and 10 ng/mL in 0.1 mL urine. The intra-assay accuracy and precision in plasma ranged from 88.1 to 115.7% and 1.4 to 10.8%, respectively, while inter-assay accuracy and precision for YHL-I, YHL-II, YHL-III, and YHL-IV ranged from 96.2 to 113.2% and 0.4 to 16.9%, respectively. The intra-assay accuracy and precision for YHL-I, YHL-II, YHL-III, and YHL-IV in rat urine ranged from 96.1 to 112.9% and 1.2 to 8.3%, respectively, while inter-assay accuracy and precision ranged from 95.0 to 106.8% and 2.2 to 10.3%, respectively. The method was further applied to assess pharmacokinetics and urine excretion of the four alkaloids after oral and intravenous administration to rats. Practical utility of this new LC-MS-MS method was confirmed in pilot pharmacokinetic studies in rats following both intravenous and oral administration.  相似文献

19-Norandrosterone sulfate (19-NAS) is the sulfoconjugated form of 19-norandrosterone (19-NA), the major metabolite of the steroid nandrolone. A sensitive and accurate liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) assay was developed for the direct measurement of 19-NAS in human urine samples. The method involved a quaternary amine SPE protocol and subsequently injection of the extract onto an analytical column (Uptisphere ODB, 150 mm x 3.0 mm, 5 microm) for chromatographic separation and mass spectrometry detection in negative electrospray ionisation mode. The sulfoconjugate of 19-NA was identified in urine by comparison of mass spectra and retention time with a reference substance. The limit of detection (LOD) and lowest limit of quantification (LLOQ) of 19-NAS were of 40 pg/mL and 200 pg/mL, respectively. For a nominal concentration of 2 ng/mL, recovery (94%), intra-day precision (2.7%), intra-assay precision (6.6%) and inter-assay precision (14.3%) were determined. Finally, this analytical method was applied for quantifying the concentration of 19-NAS in doping samples, using calibration curves (0.2-20 ng/mL) and the standard-addition method. The results show the feasibility of applying this LC-MS/MS assay as a complementary tool to detect misuse of nandrolone or nandrolone precursors.  相似文献

A quantitative analytical method using automated on-line solid phase extraction (SPE) and liquid chromatography-electrospray tandem mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-MS/MS) for the determination of 8-OHdG (8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine) in human plasma was developed and validated. A one-step membrane extraction method for the plasma sample preparation and a C18 SPE column with simple extraction and purification were used for the on-line extraction. A C18 column was employed for LC separation and ESI-MS/MS was utilized for detection. (15)N(5)-8-OHdG ((15)N(5)-8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine) was used as an internal standard for quantitative determination. The extraction, clean-up and analysis procedures were controlled by a fully automated six-port switch valve as one strategy to reduce the matrix effect and simultaneously improve detection sensitivity. Identification and quantification were based on the following transitions: m/z 284→168 for 8-OHdG and m/z 289→173 for (15)N(5)-8-OHdG. Satisfactory recovery was obtained, and the recovery ranged from 95.1 to 106.1% at trace levels in human plasma and urine, with a CV lower than 5.4%. Values for intraday and interday precision were between 2.3 and 6.8% for plasma and between 2.7 and 4.5% for urine, respectively. Values for the method accuracy of intraday and interday assays ranged from 93.0 and 100.5% for plasma and 110.2 and 119.4% for urine, respectively. The limits of detection (LOD) and LOQ were 0.008 ng/mL and 0.02 ng/mL, respectively.The applicability of this newly developed method was demonstrated by analysis of human plasma samples for an evaluation of the future risk of oxidative stress status in human exposure to nanoparticles and other diseases.  相似文献

A sensitive and efficient liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry method was developed and validated for the simultaneous determination of two active chromones (prim-O-glucosylcimifugin and 4'-O-D-glucosyl-5-O-methylvisamminol) from Saposhnikovia root in rat plasma and urine. The plasma or urine samples were prepared by protein precipitation. Chromatographic separation of the two active chromones from matrix interferences was achieved on an Angilent TC-C(18) column with a mobile phase consisted of methanol, water and 0.1% formic acid. Puerarin was added as the internal standard. The method was validated with the concentration range 1.0-100 ng/mL in rat plasma and 10-1000 ng/mL in urine for prim-O-glucosylcimifugin, 1.5-150 ng/mL in plasma and 15-1500 ng/mL in urine for 4'-O-D-glucosyl-5-O-methylvisamminol. The lower limit of quantitation (LLOQ) of prim-O-glucosylcimifugin and 4'-O-D-glucosyl-5-O-methylvisamminol was 1.0 and 1.5 ng/mL in plasma, 10 and 15 ng/mL in urine, respectively. The intra- and inter-day precision across three validation days over the entire concentration range was lower than 9.0% as terms of relative standard deviation (R.S.D.). Accuracy determined at three quality control concentrations (2.0, 25 and 75 ng/mL for prim-O-glucosylcimifugin; 3.0, 37.5 and 112.5 ng/mL for 4'-O-D-glucosyl-5-O-methylvisamminol) ranged from -1.9 to 3.9% as terms of relative error (R.E.). The LC-ESI-MS method was further applied to assess pharmacokinetics and urine excretion of the two chromones after oral administration of Fangfeng extract to rats. Practical utility of this new LC-MS method was confirmed in pilot pharmacokinetic studies in rats following oral administration.  相似文献

D-erythro-sphingosine (Sph) and its phosphorylated product, d-erythro-sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) are sphingolipids mediating numerous cellular processes. Imbalance of Sph/S1P levels contributes to many diseases. Given the interconversion of these two opposing signaling molecules, it is essential to examine their levels simultaneously. In the present study, we developed a rapid and sensitive liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method to simultaneously quantify the levels of Sph and S1P in biological samples using C17-Sph and C17-S1P as internal standards. With one step of methanol-induced protein precipitation, each sample was subjected to LC-MS/MS analysis using positive electrospray ionization under selected reaction monitoring mode. The running time was within 4 min with a simple mobile phase consisting of methanol-0.1% formic acid (95:5, v/v) at a flow rate of 0.2 mL/min. Standard curves were linear over ranges of 1-100 ng/mL for Sph and 0.1-10 ng/mL for S1P with correlation coefficient (r2) greater than 0.997. The lower limit of quantifications (LLOQs) were 1 ng/mL for Sph and 0.1 ng/mL for S1P. The intra-batch and inter-batch precision was less than 15% for all quality control samples. The recoveries of the method were found to be 76.36-89.84%. The method was applied to simultaneously determine the Sph and S1P levels in mouse kidney, human plasma, and HEK 293 cells treated with tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and N,N-dimethylsphingosine (DMS). The S1P levels increased in cells treated with TNF-α whereas decreased in cells treated with DMS. These results indicated that this new LC-MS/MS method was rapid, sensitive, specific and reliable to quantify Sph and S1P levels in biological samples simultaneously.  相似文献

Rasagiline is a highly potent, selective and irreversible second-generation monoamine oxidase inhibitor with selectivity for type B of the enzyme (MAO-B). The present studies aimed at developing and validating a rapid and sensitive liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometric (LC-MS/MS) method for determination of rasagiline in human plasma and urine. LC-MS/MS analysis was carried out on a Finnigan LC-TSQ Quantum mass spectrometer using positive ion electrospray ionization (ESI(+)) and selected reaction monitoring (SRM). The assay for rasagiline was linear over the range of 0.01-40 ng/mL in plasma and 0.025-40 ng/mL in urine. It took 5.5 min to analyze a sample. The average recoveries in plasma and urine samples were both >85%. The RSD of precision and bias of accuracy were less than 15% and 10%, respectively, of their nominal values based on the intra- and inter-day analysis. The developed method was proved to be suitable for use in clinical pharmacokinetic study after single oral administration of 0.5, 1 and 2 mg rasagiline mesylate tablets in healthy Chinese volunteers.  相似文献

A method for measurement of an important biological marker, 1,1'-sulfonylbis[2-(methylthio)ethane] (SBMTE) of sulfur mustard agent HD [bis-(2-chloroethyl)sulfide] in human urine, to quantify HD exposure, is presented. It employs TiCl3 reduction of beta-lyase metabolites to SBMTE, and automated solid-phase extraction sample preparation, followed by isotope dilution liquid chromatography-positive ion-electrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometry with 7.5 min/sample cycle time, to achieve SBMTE quantitation of up to 200 samples/24h a day. Percent relative standard deviations over the calibration range varied from 12.0% at 0.1 ng/mL to 0.9% at 100 ng/mL, and the limit of detection from a 0.5 mL sample was below the lowest level calibration standard of 0.1 ng/mL.  相似文献

A rapid, sensitive and specific method was developed and validated using LC/MS/MS for determination of sunitinib in human plasma. Sample preparation involved a liquid-liquid extraction by the addition of 0.2mL of plasma with 4.0mL tert-butyl-methyl-ether extraction solution containing 25ng/mL of the internal standard clozapine. Separation of compounds was achieved on a C18 (50mmx2.1mm i.d., 3.5microm) analytical column using a mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile/H20 (65:35, v/v) containing 0.1% formic acid and isocratic flow at 0.150mL/min for 3min. The analytes were monitored by tandem-mass spectrometry with electrospray positive ionization. Linear calibration curves in human plasma were generated over the range of 0.2-500ng/mL with values for the coefficient of determination of >0.9950. Within- and between day precision and accuracy were < or =10%. The method was applied to the quantitation of sunitinib in plasma samples from a patient receiving daily oral therapy with sunitinib.  相似文献

A sensitive and reliable high performance liquid chromatography-tandem time-of-flight mass spectrometry method (HPLC/TOF MS) has been developed to determine three active bufadienolides from Liu-Shen-Wan (LSW) in dog's plasma. Enhanced selectivity and sensitivity in comparison with traditional HPLC/DAD method could be obtained through this method. Bufodienolides could be well separated and distinguished from its nominally isobaric endogenous components by HPLC/TOF MS, with the linear calibration range covering from 0.5 ng/mL to 100 ng/mL and Limit of Detection (LOD) being about 0.15 ng/mL. This method was also proved to be quite stable, with the intra-day precision and the inter-day precision results being lower than 6.39% and 7.44%, respectively. Meanwhile HPLC/TOF MS was successfully used in the pharmacokinetic study of LSW. For resibufogenin, the major pharmacokinetic parameters AUC0-t, Cmax and t1/2alpha were 160.72+/-21.97 ng/mL min, 2.35+/-0.71 ng/mL and 20.74+/-5.89 min, respectively, and for bufalin the corresponding parameters were 55.55+/-7.55 ng/mL min, 0.91+/-0.15 ng/mL and 25.45+/-13.28 min, respectively.  相似文献

A liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry based method for determination of muscarine in human urine was developed and validated. The method involved a solid phase extraction of muscarine from urine using Strata X-CW column. Separation of muscarine was achieved within 16.0 min on a reversed phase Gemini C18 analytical column (150 mm × 2.0mm i.d., 5 μm) with a mobile phase consisted of aqueous 8 mmol/L heptafluorobutyric acid and acetonitrile in a gradient mode. Mass spectrometric detection was performed at m/z 174 and m/z 216 for muscarine and acetylmuscarine (internal standard), respectively. The linearity was satisfactory with a coefficient of determination (R(2)) 0.9993 at concentration range from 0.3 ng/mL to 2.0 μg/mL, LOD and LOQ for muscarine was 0.09 ng/mL and 0.3 ng/mL, respectively. The found out recoveries of muscarine were 96% or 95% for concentration 0.3 ng/mL and 0.2 μg/mL or 2.0 μg/mL, respectively. The precision in the intra-assay-study varied from 0.48% to 1.39% and in the inter-assay-study from 2.39% to 5.49%. The accuracy ranged from -3.3% to -6%. The validation results demonstrated that the method fulfilled satisfactory requirements for precision and accuracy across the calibration curve. The applicability of the method has been demonstrated by analyzing clinical urine samples. The method offers the fast objective identification of intoxication by muscarine and can become a routine screening alternative to more difficult microscopic examination of spores in the gastric content in clinical practice.  相似文献

A new LC-ESI-MS/MS assay method has been developed and validated for the quantification of swertiamarin, a representative bioactive substance of Swertia plants, in rat plasma using gentiopicroside, an analog of swertiamarin on chemical structure and chromatographic action, as the internal standard (IS). The swertiamarin and IS were extracted from rat plasma using solid-phase extraction (SPE) as the sample clean-up procedure, and they were chromatographed on a narrow internal diameter column (Agilent ZORBAX ECLIPSE XDB-C(18) 100 mm × 2.1 mm, 1.8 μm) with the mobile phase consisting of methanol and water containing 0.1% acetic acid (25:75, v/v) at a flow rate of 0.2 mL/min. The detection was performed on an Agilent G6410B tandem mass spectrometer by negative ion electrospray ionisation in multiple-reaction monitoring mode while monitoring the transitions of m/z 433 [M+CH(3)COO](-)→179 and m/z 415 [M+CH(3)COO](-)→179 for swertiamarin and IS, respectively. The lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) was 5 ng/mL within a linear range of 5-1000 ng/mL (n=7, r(2)≥0.994), and the limit of detection (LOD) was demonstrated as 1.25 ng/mL (S/N≥3). The method also afforded satisfactory results in terms of sensitivity, specificity, precision (intra- and inter-day), accuracy, recovery, freeze/thaw, long-time stability and dilution integrity. This method was successfully applied to determination of the pharmacokinetic properties of swertiamarin in rats after oral administration at a dose of 20 mg/kg. The following pharmacokinetic parameters were obtained (mean): maximum plasma concentration, 1920.1 ng/mL; time to reach maximum plasma concentration, 0.945 h; elimination half-time, 1.10h; apparent total clearance, 5.638 L/h/kg; and apparent volume of distribution, 9.637 L/kg.  相似文献

A rapid, sensitive and specific method was developed and validated using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) for determination of gefitinib in human plasma and mouse plasma and tissue. Sample preparation involved a single protein precipitation step by the addition of 0.1 mL of plasma or a 200 mg/mL tissue homogenate diluted 1/10 in human plasma with 0.3 mL acetonitrile. Separation of the compounds of interest, including the internal standard (d8)-gefitinib, was achieved on a Waters X-Terra C18 (50 mm x 2.1 mm i.d., 3.5 microm) analytical column using a mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile-water (70:30, v/v) containing 0.1% formic acid and isocratic flow at 0.15 mL/min for 3 min. The analytes were monitored by tandem mass spectrometry with electrospray positive ionization. Linear calibration curves were generated over the range of 1-1000 ng/mL for the human plasma samples and 5-1000 ng/mL for mouse plasma and tissue samples with values for the coefficient of determination of > 0.99. The values for both within- and between-day precision and accuracy were well within the generally accepted criteria for analytical methods (< 15%). This method was subsequently used to measure concentrations of gefitinib in mice following administration of a single dose of 150 mg/kg intraperitoneally and in cancer patients receiving an oral daily dose of 250 mg.  相似文献

A rapid equilibrium dialysis (RED) assay followed by a solid phase extraction (SPE) high-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) assay for the quantitative determination of unbound vismodegib in human plasma was developed and validated. The equilibrium dialysis was carried out using 0.3 mL plasma samples in the single-use plate RED system at 37°C for 6h. The dialysis samples (0.1 mL) were extracted using a Strata-X-C 33u Polymeric Strong Cation SPE plate and the resulting extracts were analyzed using reverse-phase chromatography and positive electrospray ionization (ESI) mass spectrometry. The standard curve, which ranged from 0.100 to 100 ng/mL for vismodegib, was fitted to a 1/x(2) weighted linear regression model. The lower limit of quantitation (LLOQ, 0.100 ng/mL) was sufficient to quantify unbound concentrations of vismodegib after dialysis. The intra-assay precision of the LC-MS/MS assay, based on the four analytical QC levels (LLOQ, low, medium and high), was within 7.7% CV and inter-assay precision was within 5.5% CV. The assay accuracy, expressed as %Bias, was within ±4.0% of the nominal concentration values. Extraction recovery of vismodegib was between 77.9 and 84.0%. The assay provides a means for accurate assessment of unbound vismodegib plasma concentrations in clinical studies.  相似文献

A sensitive and simple method for the quantification and for the detection of 2-chlorovinylarsonous (CVAA) and 2-chlorovinylarsonic (CVAOA) acids was developed. CVAA and CVOA are important biological markers in human and rat urine specific to lewisite (chlorovinylarsonous chloride compounds) exposure. The developed assay was based on the use of solid-phase extraction (SPE) followed by liquid-chromatography coupled to electrospray ionization (negative ion-mode) low-energy collision dissociation-tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-CID-MS/MS). The method demonstrated linearity over at least three orders of magnitude and had a detection limit (LOD) of 0.5 ng/ml for CVAA and 3 ng/ml for CVAOA. The relative standard deviations for the quality control samples ranged from 6 to 11%. Application of this procedure was demonstrated in the lewisite animals exposure model. Rats were exposed intravenously by no lethal doses of lewisite and markers levels in urine samples were analyzed for 21 days post-exposure.  相似文献

In this study, the extraction of γ-hydroxybutyrate (GHB) from urine using solid-phase extraction (SPE) is described. SPE was performed on anion exchange columns after samples of urine had been diluted with de-ionized water. After application of the diluted samples containing GHB-d(6) as an internal standard, the sorbent was washed with deionized water and methanol and dried. The GHB was eluted from the SPE column with a solvent consisting of methanol containing 6% glacial acetic acid. The eluent was collected, evaporated to dryness, and dissolved in mobile phase (100 μL) for analysis by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) in negative multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode. Liquid chromatography was performed in gradient mode employing a biphenyl column and a mobile phase consisting of acetontitrile (containing 0.1% formic acid) and 0.1% aqueous formic acid. The total run time for each analysis was less than 5 min. The limits of detection/quantification for this method were determined to be 50 and 100 ng/mL, respectively. The method was found to be linear from 500 ng/mL to 10,000 ng/mL (r(2)>0.995). The recovery of GHB was found to be greater than 75%. In this report, results of authentic urine samples analyzed for GHB by this method are presented. GHB concentrations in these samples were found to be range from less than 500 ng/mL to 5110 ng/mL.  相似文献

The collection of oral fluid for drug testing is easy and non-invasive. This study developed a drug testing method using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS) in selected-reaction monitoring (SRM) mode. We tested the method on the analysis of four opiates and their metabolites, five amphetamines, flunitrazepam and its two metabolites, and cocaine and its four metabolites in oral fluid. 100-μL samples of oral fluid were diluted with twice the amount of water then spiked with isotope-labeled internal standards. After the samples had undergone high-speed centrifugation for 20 min, we analyzed the supernatant. The recovery of the sample preparation ranged from 81 to 108%. We compared the performance of electrospray ionization (ESI), atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) and atmospheric pressure photoionization (APPI). The ion suppression of most analytes on ESI (28-78%) was lower than that of APCI and APPI. A post-column flow split (5:1) did not reduce the matrix effect on ESI. Direct APPI performed better than dopant-assisted APPI using toluene. ESI, APCI and APPI limits of quantitation mostly ranged from 0.11 to 1.9 ng/mL, 0.02 to 2.2 ng/mL and 0.02 to 2.1 ng/mL, respectively, but were much higher on amphetamine and ecgonine methyl ester (about 2.7-4.7 ng/mL, 8.7-14 ng/mL, and 10-19 ng/mL, respectively). Most of the bias percentages (accuracy) and relative standard deviations (precision) on spiked samples were below 15%. This method greatly simplifies the process of sample preparation and shortens the chromatographic time to only 7.5 min per run and is able to detect analytes at sub-ppb levels.  相似文献

Although, 1,3-butadiene is a known human carcinogen emitted from mobile sources, little is known about traffic-related human exposure to this toxicant. This pilot study was designed to characterize traffic-related environmental exposure to 1,3-butadiene and evaluate its urinary mercapturic acids as biomarkers of exposure in these settings. Personal air samples and multiple urine samples were collected on two separate occasions from three groups of individuals that differed by spatial proximity as well as intensity of traffic: (i) toll collectors, (ii) urban-weekday and (iii) suburban-weekend group. Air samples were analyzed using thermal desorption followed by GC/MS and urine samples were analyzed using isotope dilution liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (ID-LC-MS/MS) for two mercapturic acids of 1,3-butadiene: monohydroxy-3-butenyl mercapturic acid (MHBMA) and 1,2-dihydroxybutyl mercapturic acid (DHBMA). Exposure differed between groups (p<0.05) with median values of 2.38, 1.62 and 0.88 microg/m(3) for toll collectors, the urban-weekday group and the suburban-weekend group, respectively. A refined ID-LC-MS/MS method enabled detection of MHBMA, previously detected only in occupational settings, with high frequency. MHBMA and DHBMA were detected in 95 and 100% of urine samples at levels (mean+/-S.D.) of 9.7+/-9.5, 6.0+/-4.3 and 6.8+/-2.6 ng/mL for MHBMA and 378+/-196, 258+/-133 and 306+/-242 ng/mL for DHBMA for the three different groups, respectively. Mean biomarker levels were higher among the toll collectors compared to the other two groups, however, the differences were not statistically significant (p>0.05). This study is the first to evaluate 1,3-butadiene biomarkers for subtle differences in environmental exposures. However, additional research will be required to ascertain whether the lack of statistical association observed here is real or attributable to unexpectedly small differences in exposure between groups (<1 microg/m(3)), non-specificity of the biomarker at low exposure, and/or small sample size.  相似文献

To support pharmacokinetic studies, a selective and sensitive liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method has been developed and validated for the simultaneous determination of a novel KDR kinase inhibitor (1) and its active metabolite (2) in human plasma. The method is fully automated using a Packard MultiPROBE II system and a TomTec Quadra 96 liquid handling workstation to perform sample preparation and solid-phase extraction (SPE). Following the extraction on a mixed-mode SPE using Oasis MCX 96-well plate, the analytes were separated on a Aquasil C18 column (50 mm x 2.1 mm, i.d., 3 microm) with a mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile/ammonium acetate buffer (5 mM, pH 5.0) (60/40, v/v). The run time for each injection was 4.5 min with the retention times of approximately 2.0 and 2.7 min for 1 and 2 respectively, at a flow rate of 0.25 mL/min. A tandem mass spectrometric detection was conducted using multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) under the positive ion mode with a turbo ion-spray interface. The linear ranges of the calibration curves were 0.05-400 ng/mL for 1 and 0.1-400 ng/mL for 2 on a PE Sciex API 4000 LC-MS/MS system. The lower limits of quantitation (LLOQ) of the assay were 0.05 and 0.1 ng/mL for 1 and 2 respectively, when 0.4 mL of plasma was processed. Intra-day assay precision (using five standard curves prepared by spiking compounds to five lots of plasma) was less than 4.9% for 1 and less than 9.6% for 2 on each concentration. Assay accuracy was found to be 95.1-104.6% of nominal for 1 standards and 93.5-105.6% for 2 standards. QC samples were stable when kept at room temperature for 4 h, at -70 degrees C for 10 days, and after three freeze-thaw cycles. The extraction recoveries were 80%, 83% and 84% for 1 and 2 and I.S. respectively, and no significant matrix effects were observed. The method was successfully applied to plasma samples from clinical studies after oral administration of compound 1.  相似文献

This investigation examined the exposure of Egyptian infants to Aflatoxin M1 (AfM1) and of lactating mothers to Aflatoxin B1, using AfM1 in human milk as a biomarker for exposure to AfB1. The presence of ochratoxin A (OA) in human milk was also investigated to determine the levels of infants exposure to OA from human milk. The results indicated that AfM1 was found in 66 (55 %) of 120 human milk samples with a mean of 0.3 ± 0.53 ng/mL (range 0.02 to 2.09 ng/mL). OA was found in 43 (35.8 %) of 120 human milk samples with a mean of 21.1 ± 13.7 ng/mL (range 5.07 to 45.01 ng/mL), which will cause a daily intake of OA from human milk exceeding the suggested tolerable dose of 5 ng/kg-1 of OA body weight. On the other side AfM1 was found in 25 % of blood samples (5 out of 20 samples), at a mean of 1.18 ng/mL, but it was detected only in one urine sample (1 out of 20 samples). OA was detected only in 2 out of 13 blood samples (15.4 %) with an average 3.67 ng/mL. Whereas OA was not detected in all analyzed urine samples.  相似文献
