A protein precipitation method for the determination of clobazam (CLB) and its major active metabolite N-desmethylclobazam (N-CLB) in human plasma by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) was established. CLB and N-CLB were extracted from human plasma samples by protein precipitation with methanol. Analyte separation was done using a Phenomenex Kinetex™ Biphenyl (50 × 2.1 mm, 1.7 μm) column using isocratic elution with a mobile phase of 5 mm ammonium formate with 0.01% ammonium hydroxide (40%) and methanol (60%) at a flow rate of 0.4 mL/min and an injection volume of 10 μL. The detection was performed on a triple quadrupole mass spectrometer in multiple reaction monitoring mode to monitor the precursor-to-product ion transitions of m/z 301.1 → 259.0, 306.0 → 263.9 for CLB and CLB-D5 and 287.0 → 245.0, 292.0 → 250.0 for N-CLB and N-CLB-D5 in positive electrospray ionization mode, respectively. The method was validated over a concentration range of 2.0-750 ng/mL for CLB and 0.7-200 ng/mL for N-CLB on SCIEX Triple Quad 4500 MS System. Total run time was 5 min. This method has been designed for bioequivalence study for formulations containing 20 mg of CLB.

The efficiency of ultrafiltration (UF) of acidified skim milk (SM) is impaired by protein aggregation and mineral scaling. The aim of this study is to assess the potential of acidification by electrodialysis with bipolar membranes (EDBM), in comparison with citric acid (CA), prior to the UF process on filtration performance, fouling and composition of the protein concentrates. Electro-acidification, facilitated by a water-splitting reaction, decreased the pH of milk to ∼ 5.

Currently, treatment with antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) is still the first choice for epileptic patients, while monitoring their blood concentrations is undoubtedly beneficial for minimizing their adverse side effects and optimizing their therapeutic effects. In this study, an ultra-high performance liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry with polarity switching was developed and validated for simultaneous determination of 14 AEDs and 2 active metabolites in human serum. Olanzapine was selected as the internal standard.

Deoxycholic acid (DCA) injection is applied in treating moderate to severe submental bulge or facial fullness caused by excessive submental fat accumulation. Using ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) technology, which was swiftly, precisely, and reliably confirmed, DCA was determined in human plasma with low quantification limits of 56 ng/mL. We selected six healthy individual blank human plasma with low concentrations of endogenous DCA and mixed them to prepare standard curve samples.
