ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE@#To establish a liquid chromatography-tandem mass chromatography (LC-MS/MS) method for the simultaneous screening for 22 poisonous alkaloids in blood.@*METHODS@#This method involves a liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) followed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry with multi-ple-reaction monitoring (MRM). After blood was extracted with buprenorphine as the internal standard, the target compounds were analyzed with LC-MS/MS-ESI in the positive ionization mode.@*RESULTS@#Identification was based on the compound's retention time and two precursor-to-product ion transitions. The limits of detection ranged from 0.1 ng/mL to 20 ng/mL in blood.@*CONCLUSION@#The method was sufficiently selective and sensitive to detect poisonous alkaloids and can be applied in forensic and clinical toxicology.
