ABSTRACT
Objective To develop the analytical method to determine the content of dexamethasone in human plasma by solid phase extraction with ultra performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometer. Methods The human plasma was extracted with a solid phase extraction(SPE) and determined by UPLC-MS/MS. LC-MS/MS was performed in ESI source with MRM mode for quantification. Results The lowest detectable limit was 0.05ng/mL, the linear range was 1~100ng/mL. The absolute recovery was more than 78.1%. The intra- and inter day precision was within 15% at three concentrations. Conclusion Since the procedure proved to be simple, quick and effective, it could be used for the determination of dexamethasone in human plasma.
ABSTRACT
Objective To develop the analytical method of dexmedetomidine in human plasma by solid phase extraction with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry(SPE-GC/ MS). Methods The human plasma were extracted with a solid phase extraction(SPE) and determined by GC/MS. Results The lowest detectable limit was 0.05μg/mL, the standard curve was linear over the range of 0.2μg/mL~5μg/mL. The absolute recovery was 86.1%~91.5%. The intra-and interday precision was within 7.86% at three concentrations. Conclusion Since the procedure proved to be simple, quick and sensitive, it could be used for the determination of dexmedetomidine in human plasma.
ABSTRACT
Objective To establish the analytical method of oleandrin and adynerin in human blood by HPLC-MS/MS. Methods After protein sediment by acetonitril, the concentrations of oleandrin and adynerin in human blood were quantitatively determined by HPLC-MS/MS. The qualitative analysis was conducted based on retention time and MRM ions. Besides, the standard curve method was used for quantification. Results The detection limits of both oleandrin and adynerin were 0.5ng/mL, the linear range was from 1ng/mL to 1mg/mL, with a recovery rate of 75.2%~95.7%. Conclusion The detecting protocol has the advantages of high sensitivity, fast and high accuracy with a relatively wide linear range, which is especially suitable for rapid detection of oleander toxins, alexandrine and adynerin in particular, in human blood in poisoning cases.
