Development and validation of LC-MS/MS method for determination of DNDI-VL-2098 in mouse, rat, dog and hamster blood.

To develop a bioanalytical method to support pharmacokinetic evaluation of DNDI-VL-2098 in mouse, rat, dog and hamster following oral administration. A robust LC-MS/MS bioanalytical method was developed to quantify DNDI-VL-2098. DNDI-VL-2098 showed time-dependent recovery loss in acetonitrile precipitated plasma in all species.

Development and validation of a chiral LC-ESI-MS/MS method for simultaneous determination of the enantiomeric metabolites isosorbide 2-mononitrate and isosorbide 5-mononitrate of isosorbide dinitrate in rat and human plasma.

A specific liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-MS/MS) assay was developed and validated for simultaneous determination of two active metabolites of isosorbide dinitrate (ISDN), namely, isosorbide 2-mononitrate (IS 2-MN) and isosorbide 5-mononitrate (IS 5-MN). A simple protein precipitation extraction technique was employed using C isosorbide 5-mononitrate as the internal standard. The two isomers were separated on a chiral column and mass detection was carried out by electrospray ionization (ESI) in negative multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode (ESI -ve).
