Development and validation of a simple HPLC-MS/MS method for the quantification of methylmalonic acid in human serum without a derivatization step.

A simple and rapid HPLC-MS/MS analytical method was developed and validated for the determination of methylmalonic acid (MMA) in human serum without a derivatization step. Serum samples (200 μl) were pretreated using a simple method based on ultrafiltration using a VIVASPIN 500 ultrafiltration column. Chromatographic separation was achieved on a Luna Omega C18 column with a PS C18 precolumn guard by gradient elution using 0.

A new HPLC-MS/MS analytical method for quantification of tazobactam, piperacillin, and meropenem in human plasma.

A simple and fast high-performance liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry method for quantification of tazobactam, piperacillin, and meropenem in human plasma has been developed and validated. Simple sample preparation with a volume of 10 μL was done by protein precipitation with a mixture of methanol-acetonitrile-water (6:2:2, v/v/v). Chromatographic separation was achieved on a Luna column with a precolumn security guard by gradient elution using a mobile phase consisting of water with the addition of 0.

A new HPLC-MS/MS method for simultaneous determination of Cyclosporine A, Tacrolimus, Sirolimus and Everolimus for routine therapeutic drug monitoring.

A rapid, simple and robust HPLC-MS/MS method for simultaneous determination of immunosuppressants Cyclosporine A, Tacrolimus, Sirolimus and Everolimus has been developed and validated. Sample of whole blood with volume of 50 μL was prepared by a protein precipitation with methanol and 0.5 mol.

A validated UPLC-MS/MS method for biomonitoring the exposure to the fragrance 7-hydroxycitronellal.

7-Hydroxycitronellal is a synthetic fragrance (CAS No. 107-75-5) which is used commonly in cosmetics, washing- and cleaning agents and as flavoring in foods. Due to its broad application in various fields, 7-hydroxycitronellal was selected for the development of a biomonitoring method for the quantitative exposure assessment within the frame of the cooperation project of the German Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation, Building and Nuclear Safety (BMUB) and the German Chemical Industry Association (VCI).

Human metabolism and excretion kinetics of the fragrance 7-hydroxycitronellal after a single oral or dermal dosage.

7-Hydroxy-3,7-dimethyl-1-octanal, also known as 7-hydroxycitronellal (7-HC, CAS No. 107-75-5) is a synthetic fragrance widely used in cosmetic and hygiene products. Due to its large scope, 7-HC was selected for the development of a biomonitoring method suitable for the general population within the frame of the cooperation project between the German Federal Ministry for the Environment (BMUB) and the German Chemical Industry Association (VCI).

A liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method for the human biomonitoring of non-occupational exposure to the fragrance 2-(4-tert-butylbenzyl)propionaldehyde (lysmeral).

2-(4-tert-Butylbenzyl)propionaldehyde also known as lysmeral, lilial, or lily aldehyde (CAS No. 80-54-6) is a synthetic odorant mainly used as a fragrance in a variety of consumer products like cleaning agents, fine fragrances, cosmetics, and air fresheners. Due to its broad application in various fields, lysmeral was selected for the development of a biomonitoring method for the quantitative exposure assessment within the frame of the cooperation project of the Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation, Building and Nuclear Safety (BMUB) and the German Chemical Industry Association (VCI).
