An improved LC-MS/MS method for the quantification of alverine and para hydroxy alverine in human plasma for a bioequivalence study.

A highly sensitive and selective high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method was developed and validated for the quantification of alverine (ALV) and its active metabolite, para hydroxy alverine (PHA), in human plasma. For sample preparation, solid phase extraction of analytes was performed on Phenomenex Strata-X cartridges using alverine-d5 as the internal standard. The analytes were separated on Symmetry Shield RP (150 mm×3.

Simultaneous analysis of allopurinol and oxypurinol using a validated liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method in human plasma.

The present study describes a simple, reliable and reproducible liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method (LC-MS/MS) for the simultaneous determination of allopurinol and its active metabolite, oxypurinol in human plasma for a pharmacokinetic/bioequivalence study. After protein precipitation (PPT) of 100 µL plasma sample with 1.0% formic acid in acetonitrile, the recovery of the analytes and allopurinol-d2 as an internal standard ranged from 85.

Liquid chromatography--tandem mass spectrometry method for simultaneous determination of albendazole and albendazole sulfoxide in human plasma for bioequivalence studies.

An improved high performance liquid chromatography--tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method has been developed for sensitive and rapid determination of albendazole (ABZ) and its active metabolite, albendazole sulfoxide (ABZSO), in the positive ionization mode. The method utilized solid phase extraction (SPE) for sample preparation of the analytes and their deuterated internal standards (ISs) from 100 µL human plasma. The chromatography was carried out on Hypurity C column using acetonitrile-2.

Application of an LC-MS/MS method for reliable determination of amodiaquine, N-desethylamodiaquine, artesunate and dihydroartemisinin in human plasma for a bioequivalence study in healthy Indian subjects.

A sensitive and high throughput bioanalytical method has been developed for reliable determination of amodiaquine (AQ), N-desethylamodiaquine (DEAQ), artesunate (AS) and dihydroartemisinin (DHA) in human plasma by LC-MS/MS. The method employs a solid phase extraction procedure without an evaporation step and with optimum use of organic solvents to circumvent degradation of artemisinin derivatives. The analytes and their deuterated internal standards (ISs) were analyzed on Hypersil Gold (100 mm × 4.
