Determination of fenofibric acid in human plasma by ultra performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization mass spectrometry: application to a bioequivalence study.

A rapid, specific and sensitive ultra-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry method was developed for the determination of fenofibric acid in human plasma. The method involves simple, one-step liquid-liquid extraction procedure coupled with an Acquity UPLC(TM) BEH C(18) column (50 x 2.1 mm, i.

Development and validation of a high throughput and robust LC-MS/MS with electrospray ionization method for simultaneous quantitation of diltiazem and its two metabolites in human plasma: Application to a bioequivalence study.

A high throughput and specific method using ultra performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) was developed for the simultaneous determination of diltiazem and its two metabolite (N-desmethyldiltiazem and O-desacetyldiltiazem) in human plasma. A one-step liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) with methyl-t-butyl ether (MTBE) involved for the extraction of diltiazem (DLTZ), metabolites (DMeD and DAcD) and internal standard. Analytes were chromatographed on a ACQUITY UPLC BEH C(18) column (100 mm x 2.

Determination of quinapril and quinaprilat in human plasma by ultraperformance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization mass spectrometry.

A novel, specific and sensitive ultraperformance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) method was developed for the simultaneous determination of quinapril and its active metabolite quinaprilat in human plasma. The method involves a simple, one-step extraction procedure coupled with an Acquity UPLC BEH C(18 )column (100 x 2.1 mm, i.
