RESUMO
For the use in pharmacokinetic studies, a fast and sensitive assay method was developed for the determination of remifentanil in human heparinised whole blood samples of 0.5 ml. The assay method is based on tandem mass spectrometry detection (LC-MS/MS). The limit of quantification is 0.1 ng/ml and linear up to 50 ng/ml. The precision, accuracy, recovery and applicability were found to be adequate for pharmacokinetic studies.

For use in clinical studies, a fast and sensitive assay method was developed for the determination of nifedipine in human plasma samples. The assay method is based on tandem mass spectrometry detection (HPLC-MS-MS). The effect of flow injection as well as HPLC separation on the results of the nifedipine determination were evaluated. The limit of quantification is 0.5 ng/ml and the accuracy (as determined by spiking recovery) was found to be good.
