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

Two stability challenges were encountered during development of an urine assay for a proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) agonist, I (2-{[5,7-dipropyl-3-(trifluoromethyl)-1,2-benzisoxazol-6-yl]oxy}-2-methyl propionic acid), indicated for the treatment of Type II diabetes. First, the analyte was lost in urine samples due to adsorption on container surface which is a common problem during clinical sample handling. Secondly, the acylglucuronide metabolite (III), a major metabolite of I, displayed limited stability and effected the quantitation of parent drug due to the release of I through hydrolysis. Therefore, a clinical collection procedure was carefully established to stabilize I and its acylglucuronide metabolite, III, in human urine. The metabolite was not quantitated with this method. The urine samples are treated with bovine serum albumin (BSA) equal to 1.75% of the urine volume and formic acid equal to 1% of urine volume. Compound (I) and internal standard (II) were extracted from urine with 1 mL ethyl acetate using a fully automated liquid-liquid extraction in 96-well plate format. The analytes are separated by reverse phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with tandem mass spectrometry in multiple-reaction-monitoring (MRM) mode used for detection. The urine method has a lower limit of quantitation (LLOQ) of 0.05 ng/mL with a linearity range of 0.05-20 ng/mL using 0.05 mL of urine. The method was validated and used to assay urine clinical samples. 相似文献

A specific LC-MS/MS assay was developed for the automated determination of talinolol in human plasma, using on-line solid phase extraction system (prospekt 2) combined with atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) tandem mass spectrometry. The method involved simple precipitation of plasma proteins with perchloric acid (contained propranolol) as the internal standard (IS) and injection of the supernatant onto a C8 End Capped (10 mmx2 mm) cartridge without any evaporation step. Using the back-flush mode, the analytes were transferred onto an analytical column (XTerra C18, 50 mmx4.6 mm) for chromatographic separation and mass spectrometry detection. One of the particularities of the assay is that the SPE cartridge is used as a column switching device and not as an SPE cartridge. Therefore, the same SPE cartridge could be used more than 28 times, significantly reducing the analysis cost. APCI ionization was selected to overcome any potential matrix suppression effects because the analyte and IS co-eluted. The mean precision and accuracy in the concentration range 2.5-200 ng/mL was found to be 103% and 7.4%, respectively. The data was assessed from QC samples during the validation phase of the assay. The lower limit of quantification was 2.5 ng/mL, using a 250 microL plasma aliquot. The LC-MS/MS method provided the requisite selectivity, sensitivity, robustness accuracy and precision to assess pharmacokinetics of the compound in several hundred human plasma samples. 相似文献

A sensitive method using liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometric detection (LC-MS/MS) was developed and validated for the analysis of antihistamine drug azatadine in human plasma. Loratadine was used as internal standard (IS). Analytes were extracted from human plasma by liquid/liquid extraction using ethyl acetate. The organic phase was reduced to dryness under a stream of nitrogen at 30 °C and the residue was reconstituted with the mobile phase. 5 μL of the resulting solution was injected onto the LC-MS/MS system. A 4.6 mm × 150 mm, I.D. 5 μm, Agilent TC-C(18) column was used to perform the chromatographic analysis. The mobile phase consisted of ammonium formate buffer 0.010 M (adjusted to pH 4.3 with 1M formic acid)/acetonitrile (20:80, v/v) The chromatographic run time was 5 min per injection and flow rate was 0.6 mL/min. The retention time was 2.4 and 4.4 min for azatadine and IS, respectively. The tandem mass spectrometric detection mode was achieved with electrospray ionization (ESI) iron source and the multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) (291.3 → 248.2m/z for azatadine, 383.3 → 337.3m/z for IS) was operated in positive ion modes. The low limit of quantitation (LLOQ) was 0.05 ng/mL. The intra-day and inter-day precision of the quality control (QC) samples was 8.93-11.57% relative standard deviation (RSD). The inter-day accuracy of the QC samples was 96.83-105.07% of the nominal values. 相似文献

A sensitive and precise LC-ESI-MS/MS method for the determination of vandetanib (ZD6474) in human plasma and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) using [(13)C,d(3)]-ZD6474 as an internal standard (ISTD) was developed and validated. Sample preparation consisted of a simple liquid-liquid extraction with tert-butyl methyl ether containing 0.1% or 0.5% ammonium hydroxide. ZD6474 and ISTD were separated on a Kinetex C18 column (2.6 μm, 50 mm × 2.1 mm) at ambient temperature with an isocratic mobile phase (acetonitrile/10mM ammonium formate=50/50, v/v, at pH 5.0) delivered at 0.11 mL/min. The retention time of both compounds was at 1.60 min in a runtime of three min. Detection was achieved by an API-3200 LC-MS/MS system, monitoring m/z 475.1/112.1 and m/z 479.1/116.2 for vandetanib and ISTD, respectively. The method was linear in the range of 0.25-50 ng/mL (R(2) ≥ 0.990) for the CSF curve and from 1.0 to 3000 ng/mL (R(2) ≥ 0.992) for the plasma curve. The mean recovery for vandetanib was 80%. Within-day and between-day precisions were ≤ 8.8% and ≤ 5.9% for CSF and plasma, respectively. Within-day and between-day accuracies ranged from 95.0 to 98.5% for CSF, and from 104.0 to 108.5% for plasma. Analysis of plasma from six different sources showed no matrix effect for vandetanib (MF=0.98, %CV ≤ 4.97, n=6). This method was successfully applied to the analysis of pharmacokinetic samples from children with brain tumors treated with oral vandetanib. 相似文献

This paper presents the development of a simple liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS) method to determine corticosteroids in bovine urine sample matrices. This method uses a single phase extraction (SPE) for cleaning of the sample with an Oasis MAX cartridge at pH 9.0–9.5 and elution by a neutral organic solvent (acetonitrile/dichloromethane), followed by separation on a GEMINI C18 column in the gradient mode with acetate buffer (pH 4.1)/methanol. A triple quadrupole mass spectrometer equipped with a multimode ion source, set to negative atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) in the multiple reaction monitoring mode was used for detection. The main advantage of this method over other commonly used methods includes the use of SPE with a low volume cartridge for sample preparation and no ion suppression effects from matrix components of the urine samples in the LC–MS/MS analysis. This allowed a reduction the quantification limits (decision limits, CCα) for the first time to 0.1 μg/L (1 and 0.2 μg/L for triamcinolone and flumethasone, respectively). The developed method was validated in accordance with the European Union Commission Decision 2002/657 EC. The recoveries and within-laboratory reproducibility varied from 77% to 115% and 87% to 107.5%, respectively, at 2, 3, and 4 μg/L levels of corticosteroids. The relative standard deviation (RSD) of the measurements was lower than 30%. The decision limit was calculated by multiplying the signal-to-noise ratio by 3 and the obtained values were in the range of 0.1–1.0 μg/L, confirmed by the analysis of twenty blank samples, which were spiked at the desired concentrations. The detection capability was calculated by the addition of the decision limit and the standard deviation followed by multiplication by 1.64 of the within-laboratory reproducibility at 2 μg/L of corticosteroids. The method was applied to four urine samples, giving concentrations of prednisolone (PRED) residues in the range from 0.3 to 0.9 μg/L. 相似文献

A simple, rapid and sensitive liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometric (LC/MS/MS) analytical method was developed for quantification of Hsp90 inhibitor PF-04928473 in human plasma, following administration of its prodrug, PF-04929113. Sample processing involved protein precipitation by addition of 0.4 mL of methanol containing internal standard (PF-04972487) to 50 μL volume of plasma sample. Chromatographic separation of PF-04928473 and PF-04972487 was achieved on a Phenomenex® Luna C18(2) (2.0mm × 50 mm, 5 μm) column using a gradient elution method with mobile phase solvents: methanol containing 0.1% formic acid and 0.1% formic acid at a flow rate of 0.25 mL/min. Detection was performed in electrospray positive ionization mode, monitoring the ion transitions from m/z 465.1 → 350.1 (PF-04928473) and m/z 447.0 → 329.1 (PF-04972487). The retention times for PF-04928473 and PF-04972487 were 1.86 and 2.85 min, respectively. Calibration curves were generated in the range of 2–2000 ng/mL. The accuracy and precision ranged from 94.1 to 99.0% and 86.7 to 97.6%, respectively, which were calculated using quality control samples of three different concentrations analyzed in quintuplicate on four different days. 相似文献

Orally administered racecadotril is rapidly hydrolyzed to the more potent enkephalinase inhibitor thiorphan in vivo. A sensitive and specific liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry method was developed and validated to quantify thiorphan in human plasma using lisinopril as the internal standard. After a simple protein precipitation with methanol, the post-treatment samples were analyzed on a CN column interfaced with a triple-quadruple tandem mass spectrometer using negative electrospray ionization. The method was validated to demonstrate the specificity, lower limit of quantification, accuracy, and precision of measurements. The assay was linear over the concentration range 9.38-600 ng/mL using a 5 microL aliquot of plasma. The correlation coefficients for the calibration curves ranged from 0.9985 to 0.9995. The intra- and inter-day precisions over the entire concentration were not more than 6.33%. Methanol and water (35:65, v/v) is used as the isocratic mobile phase, with 0.1% of formic acid in water. The method was successfully applied for pharmacokinetic study after a single oral administration of 200 mg racecadotril to 20 healthy volunteers. 相似文献

Three extraction procedures were developed for the quantitative determination of a carboxylic acid containing analyte (I) in human plasma by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with negative ion electrospray tandem mass spectrometry (MS–MS). The first procedure was based on the manual liquid–liquid extraction (LLE) of the acidified plasma samples with methyl tert.-butyl ether. The second procedure was based on the automation of the manual LLE procedure using 96-well collection plates and a robotic liquid handling system. The third approach was based on automated solid-phase extraction (SPE) using 96-well SPE plates and a robotic liquid handling system. A lower limit of quantitation of 50 pg/ml was achieved using all three extraction procedures. The total time required to prepare calibration curve standards, aliquot the standards and plasma samples, and process a total of 96 standards and samples by manual LLE was three-times longer than the time required for 96-well SPE or 96-well LLE (4 h, 50 min vs. 1 h, 43 min). Even more importantly, the time the bioanalyst physically spent on the 96-well LLE or 96-well SPE procedure was only a small fraction of the time spent on the manual LLE procedure (<10 min vs. 4 h, 10 min). It should be noted that the 96-well SPE procedure incorporated the two steps of evaporation of the eluates to dryness and subsequent reconstitution of the dried extract. The total time required for the 96-well SPE could be reduced by 50% if the eluates were injected directly, eliminating the drying and reconstitution steps, which is achievable when sensitivity is less of an issue. 相似文献

The determination of residues of benzimidazole using liquid chromatography and tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS–MS) with ion spray ionization is described. Swine muscle tissue was spiked with a mixture of fifteen benzimidazoles, including metabolites of fenbendazole and albendazole. As clean-up procedure, an ethyl acetate extraction followed by solid-phase extraction on styrol-divinyl-benzene cartridge was used. The evaluation was performed by selecting the characteristic product ions for the benzimidazoles and using multiple reaction mode. 2-n-Butylmercaptobenzimidazole was used as internal standard. Blank muscle samples were fortified in the concentration range of 1–22 μg/kg. The limits of detection were below 6 μg/kg and the limits of quantification for most benzimidazoles were below 10 μg/kg. The matrix effect was checked using spiked muscle tissues of cattle and sheep as well as liver of cattle. Practical application will be shown by incurred egg material from laying hens treated with flubendazole. The recovery of the clean-up was mostly above 50% in muscle tissue and 70% in egg yolk. 相似文献

High-performance liquid chromatography with on-line electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-LC/MS) was investigated for the analysis of carbohydrate heterogeneity using RNase B as a model glycoprotein. Oligosaccharides released from RNase B with endoglycosidase H were reduced and separated on a graphitized carbon column (GCC). GCC-HPLC/MS in the positive-ion mode was successful in the identification of one Man5GlcNAc, three Man6GlcNAc, three Man7GlcNAc, three Man8GlcNAc, one Man9GlcNAc, and an oligosaccharide having six hexose units (Hex) and two N-acetylhexosamine units (HexNAc). The branch structures of the three Man7GlcNAc isomers were determined by liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS). LC/MS/MS analysis was shown to be useful for the detection and identification of a trace amount of Hex6HexNAc2 alditol as a hybrid-type oligosaccharide. Its structure was confirmed by the combination of LC/MS with enzymatic digestion using beta-galactosidase and N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminidase. The relative quantities of high-mannose-type oligosaccharides in RNase B detected by ESI-LC/MS are in reasonable agreement with those by UV, high-pH anion-exchange chromatography with pulsed amperometric detection, fluorophore-assisted carbohydrate electrophoresis. Our results indicate that LC/MS and LC/MS/MS can be utilized to elucidate the distribution of oligosaccharides and their structures, which differ in molecular weight, sugar sequence, and branch structure. 相似文献

A rapid and sensitive liquid chromatographic/tandem mass spectrometric method for determination of misoprostol acid, the active metabolite of misoprostol, was developed and validated. Following liquid-liquid extraction, the analytes were separated using an isocratic mobile phase on a C(18) column. An API 4000 tandem mass spectrometer equipped with Turbo IonSpray ionization source was used as detector and was operated in the negative ion mode. Multiple reaction monitoring using the precursor to product ion combinations of m/z 367-249 and 296-269 was performed to quantify misoprostol acid and the internal standard hydrochlorothiazide, respectively. The method was linear in the concentration range of 10.0-3000 pg mL(-1) using 200 microL plasma. The lower limit of quantification was 10.0 pg mL(-1). The intra- and inter-day relative standard deviation over the entire concentration range was less than 8.3%. Accuracy determined at three concentrations (25.0, 200 and 2700 pg mL(-1) for misoprostol acid) ranged from -0.5 to 1.2% in terms of relative error. Each plasma sample was chromatographed within 3.5 min. The method was successfully used in a pharmacokinetic study of misoprostol in human plasma after an oral administration of 0.6 mg misoprostol. 相似文献

An automated high-throughput liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method was developed for quantitative determination of donepezil in human plasma. 150 MicroL of plasma samples were placed in 2.2 mL 96-deepwell plates and both donepezil and loratadine (IS) were extracted from human plasma by liquid-liquid extraction (LLE), using hexane as the organic solvent. Robotic liquid handling workstations were employed for all liquid transfer and solution preparation steps and resulted in a short sample preparation time. After vortexing, centrifugation and freezing, the supernatant organic solvent was evaporated and reconstituted in a small volume of reconstitution solution. The method developed, includes a sample analysis performed by reversed phase LC-MS/MS, with positive ion electrospray ionization, using multiple reaction monitoring (MRM). The chromatographic run time was set for 2.0 min with a flow rate of 0.7 mL/min in a C18 analytical column. The method was significantly sensitive, specific, accurate and precise for the determination of donepezil in human plasma and had the shortest run time. The curve was proven to be linear for the concentration range of 0.1-100 ng/mL. After validation, the method was applied to the rapid and reliable quantitative determination of donepezil in a bioequivalence study after per os administration of a 5mg donepezil tablet. 相似文献

For the rapid, selective and sensitive analysis of metoclopramide in human plasma, hydrophilic interaction chromatography with electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometric (HILIC/MS/MS) method was developed. This method involved liquid–liquid extraction with dichloromethane followed by separation on an Atlantis HILIC silica column using the mobile phase of acetonitrile–ammonium formate (100 mM, pH 6.5) (85:15, v/v). Analytes were quantified using electrospray ionization mass spectrometry in the selected reaction monitoring mode. The standard curve was linear (r2 = 0.998) over the concentration range of 2.00–150 ng/mL using 50 μL of plasma sample. The coefficient of variation and relative error for intra- and inter-assay at four QC levels were 1.8–7.7% and ?7.5 to 3.6%, respectively. The matrix effect for metoclopramide and levosulpiride (internal standard) was practically absent. The present method was successfully applied to the pharmacokinetic study of metoclopramide after oral dose of metoclopramide hydrochloride (10 mg) to male healthy volunteers. 相似文献

Methods for the determination of celecoxib in human plasma and rat microdialysis samples using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry are described. Celecoxib and an internal standard were extracted from plasma by solid-phase extraction with C18 cartridges. Thereafter compounds were separated on a short narrow bore RP C18 column (30×2 mm). Microdialysis samples did not require extraction and were injected directly using a narrow bore RP C18 column (70×2 mm). The detection was by a PE Sciex API 3000 mass spectrometer equipped with a turbo ion spray interface. The compounds were detected in the negative ion mode using the mass transitions m/z 380→316 and m/z 366→302 for celecoxib and internal standard, respectively. The assay was validated for human plasma over a concentration range of 0.25–250 ng/ml using 0.2 ml of sample. The assay for microdialysis samples (50 μl) was validated over a concentration range of 0.5–20 ng/ml. The method was utilised to determine pharmacokinetics of celecoxib in human plasma and in rat spinal cord perfusate. 相似文献

Higenamine is an active ingredient of Aconite root in Chinese herbal medicine and might be used as a new agent for a pharmaceutical stress test and was approved to undergo clinical pharmacokinetic study. Therefore, there exists a need to establish a sensitive and rapid method for the determination of higenamine in human plasma and urine. This paper described a sensitive and rapid method based on liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) for the determination of higenamine in human plasma and urine. Solid-phase extraction (SPE) was used to isolate the compounds from biological matrices followed by injection of the extracts onto an Atlantis dC18 column with isocratic elution. The mobile phase was 0.05% formic acid in water-methanol (40:60, v/v). The mass spectrometry was carried out using positive electrospray ionization (ESI) and data acquisition was carried out in the multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode. The method was fully validated over the concentration range of 0.100-50.0 ng/mL and 1.00-500 ng/mL in plasma and urine, respectively. The lower limits of quantification (LLOQs) were 0.100 and 1.00 ng/mL in plasma and urine, respectively. Inter- and intra-batch precision was less than 15% and the accuracy was within 85-115% for both plasma and urine. Extraction recovery was 82.1% and 56.6% in plasma and urine, respectively. Selectivity, matrix effects and stability were also validated in human plasma and urine. The method was applied to the pharmacokinetic study of higenamine hydrochloride in Chinese healthy subjects. 相似文献

A rapid, sensitive, and specific method using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) has been developed for simultaneous determination of testosterone (T), dihydrotestosterone (DHT), estradiol (E2), and 5alpha-androstan-3alpha, -17beta-diol (3alpha-Diol) within human testicular fluid. Sample pretreatment involved a one-step extraction with diethyl ether. The analytes were separated on a Waters X-Terra C18 (150 mm x 2.1 mm i.d., 3.5 microm) analytical column with acetonitrile/water mobile phase (70:30, v/v) containing 0.1% formic acid using isocratic flow at 0.15 ml/min for 8 min. The column effluent was monitored by tandem mass spectrometry with electrospray positive ionization. Linear calibration curves were generated over the range of 0.1-50 ng/ml for T, 0.02-1 ng/ml for DHT, 0.05-2 ng/ml for E2, and 0.2-10 ng/ml for 3alpha-Diol, with values for the coefficient of determination of >0.99. The overall extraction efficiency was greater than 86% for T, 75% for DHT, 66% for E2, and 60% for 3alpha-Diol. The values for within-day and between-day precision and accuracy were <15%. We measured each of the four steroids in testicular sample volumes of only 20 microl, obtained by percutaneous testicular aspiration. The mean intratesticular testosterone concentration found by LC/MS/MS, 572 +/- 102 ng/ml, was similar to that previously obtained by radioimmunoassay (RIA). The mean intratesticular estradiol concentration was 15.7 +/- 2.3 ng/ml, which also correlated well with RIA measurement. Both DHT and 3alpha-Diol were below the limits of detection by RIA, but could be measured accurately by LC/MS/MS. In conclusion, LC/MS/MS represents a sensitive and accurate means by which to measure four separate steroids within small volume samples of testicular fluid. 相似文献

A sensitive, robust and high throughput mass spectrometry based method is described for the determination of the glucocorticoid fluticasone propionate in plasma. The method employs solid-phase extraction in 96 well microtitre plate format which has been automated by means of a custom built Zymark robotic system. The extracts are analysed by liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry using thermally and pneumatically assisted electrospray ionisation and selected reaction monitoring. The method is both accurate and precise with both intra- and inter-assay precision (C.V.) of less than <6%. The method provides a lower limit of quantification of 20 pg/ml from 0.5 ml of human plasma, sufficient to monitor systemic concentrations of inhaled fluticasone propionate at therapeutic doses. 相似文献

One of the major challenges facing protein analysis is the dynamic range of protein expression within massively complex samples (Corthals, G. L. et al.., Electrophoresis 2000, 21, 1104-1115). In plasma this difference is as great as ten orders of magnitude, and this is currently beyond the range of detection achievable by any of the analytical techniques. Plasma has the additional challenge of having a few highly abundant proteins, such as albumin, which mask the detection of lower abundance and biologically significant proteins. The use of the Gradiflow BF400 as a fractionation tool to deplete highly abundant albumin from human plasma is reported here. A sequential three-step protocol was performed on five plasma samples as part of the International Plasma Proteome Project organised by the HUPO; four containing different anticoagulants: EDTA, citrate, heparin and a control sample (NIBSC); and a serum sample. Plasma from an alternate source also underwent fractionation and served as an in-house control. Time modulation between 1 and 7 h was observed for the depletion of albumin from these samples. Following albumin depletion, each fraction was trypsin-digested and the peptides were fractionated further using a 2-D LC-MS/MS. Differences in the total number of proteins identified for each sample were also noted. 相似文献

In this paper, a rapid method based on high-performance liquid chromatography/electrospray-mass spectrometry (HPLC/ESI-MS) method for the quantitative determination of andrographolide (AND) in human plasma has been developed and validated. A liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) procedure was selected to isolate AND from biological matrixes. Isosorbide-5-mononitrate (IS-5-MN) was selected as the internal standard (IS). The correlation coefficient of the calibration curve was 0.998, in the range of 9.9-320.0 ng/mL. The validated method may be used to assess the bioavailability and pharmacokinetics of the drug. 相似文献
