[Determination of octreotide in human plasma by HPLC-MS with solid-phase extraction and study on the relative bioavailability of domestic and imported octreotide injections].

AIM: To establish an HPLC-MS method for determination of octreotide in plasma and study the relative bioavailability of domestic and imported octreotide injections. METHODS: Octreotide in plasma samples were extracted with a Waters solid-phase extraction mini column. HPLC-MS was carried out using a Waters Xetrra C18 column and a mobile phase consisting of CH3 OH-1% HAc (80 : 20), the flow rate was 0.2 mL x min(-1), and the internal standard was 6, 7, 4'-OH-isoflavone, the SIR ions for quantification were m/z 1 014.4 for octreotide and m/z 317.6 for internal standard. A single dose of 200 microg of domestic or imported preparations was intramuscularly given to 18 healthy volunteers in a randomized crossover study. Octreotide concentration in plasma was determined by LC-MS method. The pharmacokinetics and bioavailability were studied. RESULTS: The regressive curve was linear (r = 0.9997) within the range of 0.5 - 40 microg x L(-1) for octreotide. The pharmacokinetics parameters of domestic and imported injection were reply to one compartment model. The mean C(max) were (19 +/- 10) microg x L(-1) and (19 +/- 11) microg x L(-1), T(max) were (0.50 +/- 0.15) h and (0.52 +/- 0.20) h, T1/2 were (1.5 +/- 0.8) h and (1.5 +/- 0.8) h, AUC(0-7 h) were (50 +/- 25) h x microg x L(-1) and (50 +/- 25) h x microg x L(-1), respectively. The relative bioavailability of domestic to imported injection was 101% +/- 10%. CONCLUSION: The method is accurat and sensible for assay of plasma octreotide concentration. The results of statistics showed the two preparations were bioequivalent.

Solid phase extraction of gold(III) on Amberlite XAD-2000 prior to its flame atomic absorption spectrometric determination.

A solid phase extraction method for the determination of gold(III) at trace levels by flame atomic absorption spectrometer (FAAS) was developed. The method was based on retention of gold as chloro complexes through the Amberlite XAD-2000. The effect of some analytical parameters including hydrochloric acid concentration, sample volume, sample and eluent flow rates, eluent volume, eluent concentration and interfering ions on the recovery of gold(III) was investigated. The retention of gold(III) from 1.5 mol l(-1) HCl solution and the recovery of gold with 0.07 mol l(-1) NH3 solution were quantitative (>or=95%). The relative standard deviation (RSD) was calculated as 3.2% (n = 10). The detection limit for gold was 2 microg l(-1). The accuracy was checked with the determination of gold spiked an artificial seawater and a pure copper samples.

The preparation of a molecular imprinted polymer to 7-hydroxycoumarin and its use as a solid-phase extraction material.

A molecular imprinted polymer (MIP) was prepared to 7-hydroxycoumarin (7-OHC). A number of preparation parameters were examined by ultraviolet (UV) spectroscopy, including the amount of solvent used for reaction, equilibration time, selectivity and capacity of material. The polymer which showed the most selectivity for 7-OHC was then packed into cartridges and used as a solid-phase extraction sorbent. An extraction procedure was then developed from first principles. The cartridges were examined for selectivity of 7-OHC over some other members of the coumarin family. 7-OHC was then extracted from urine using this solid-phase extraction (SPE) method, and its concentration determined using capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE). The method was found to be linear over the range 10-50 micrograms ml-1. Inter- and Intra-assay precision studies were performed to validate the method.

Speciation of Cr(III) and Cr(VI) after column solid phase extraction on Amberlite XAD-2010.

A speciation procedure for Cr(III) and Cr(VI) based on column solid phase extraction on Amberlite XAD-2010 and flame atomic absorption spectrometry combination. Cr(VI) was quantitatively recovered on Amberlite XAD-2010 resin at pH range of 2.0-3.0 as its diethyldithiocarbamate complex, while the recoveries of Cr(III) was below 5%. The influences of the various parameters including amounts of the reagents, eluent type and its volume, sample volume, etc., on the quantitative recoveries were examined. The interference of matrix and coexistent elements for method were studied. The detection limit (corresponding to three times the standard deviation of the blank) and the enrichment factor for Cr(VI) were found to be 1.28 microg/L and 25, respectively. To verify the accuracy of the method, drinking water certified reference material (CRM-TMDW-500) was analyzed and the results obtained were in good agreement with the certified value. The proposed method has been successfully applied to the speciation of Cr(III) and Cr(VI) in water samples and preconcentration of total chromium in environmental samples.

Molecularly imprinted solid-phase extraction for the screening of antihyperglycemic biguanides.

A new molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) was specifically synthesized as a smart material for the recognition of metformin hydrochloride in solid-phase extraction. Particles of this MIP were packed into a stainless-steel tubing (50 mm x 0.8 mm i.d.) equipped with an exit frit. This micro-column was employed in the development of a molecularly imprinted solid-phase extraction (MISPE) method for metformin determination. The MISPE instrumentation consisted of a micrometer pump, an injector valve equipped with a 20-microl sample loop, a UV detector, and an integrator. With CH3CN as the mobile phase flowing at 0.5 ml/min, 95 +/- 2% binding could be achieved for 1200 ng of metformin from one injection of a phosphate-buffered sample solution (pH 2.5). Methanol + 3% trifluoroacetic acid was good for quantitative pulsed elution (PE) of the bound metformin. The MISPE-PE method, with UV detection at 240 nm, afforded a detection limit of 16 ng (or 0.8 microg/ml) for metformin. However, the micro-column interacted indiscriminately with phenformin with a 49 +/- 2% binding. A systematic investigation of binding selectivity was conducted with respect to sample composition (including the solvent, matrix, pH, buffer and surfactant effects). An intermediate step of differential pulsed elution used acetonitrile with 5% picric acid to remove phenformin and other structural analogues. A final pulsed elution of metformin for direct UV detection was achieved using 3% trifluoroacetic acid in methanol.

Solid-phase extraction NMR studies of chromatographic fractions of saponins from Quillaja saponaria.

The saponin mixture QH-B from the tree Quillaja saponaria var. Molina was fractionated by RP-HPLC in several steps. The fractions were analyzed by solid-phase extraction NMR (SPE-NMR), a technique combining the workup by solid-phase extraction with on-line coupling to an NMR flow probe. Together with MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry and comparison with chemical shifts of similar saponins, the structures of both major and minor components in QH-B could be obtained. The procedure described is a simple method to determine the structure of components in a complex mixture. The two major fractions of the mixture were found to contain at least 28 saponins, differing in the carbohydrate substructures. Eight of these have not previously been determined. The 28 saponins formed 14 equilibrium pairs by the migration of an O-acyl group between two adjacent positions on a fucosyl residue.

Development and application of porous membrane-protected carbon nanotube micro-solid-phase extraction combined with gas chromatography/mass spectrometry.

A novel, multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT)-supported micro-solid-phase extraction (mu-SPE) procedure has been developed. A 6-mg sample of MWCNTs was packed inside a (2 cm x 1.5 cm) sheet of porous polypropylene membrane whose edges were heat-sealed to secure the contents. The mu-SPE device, which was wetted with dichloromethane, was then placed in a stirred sewage sludge sample solution to extract organophosporous pesticides, used here as model compounds. Tumbling of the extraction device within the sample solution facilitated extraction, and the porous membrane acted as a filter to exclude the extraction of extraneous materials. After extraction, analytes were desorbed in hexane and analyzed using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. Since the porous membrane afforded protection of the MWCNTs, no further cleanup of the extract was required. The pi-pi electrostatic interaction with the analytes and the large surface area of MWCNTs facilitated the adsorption of analytes, with good selectivity and reproducibility. Under the optimized extraction conditions, the method showed good linearity in the range of 0.1-50 mug/L, repeatability of the extractions (RSD 2-8%, n = 4), and low limits of detection (1-7 pg/g). No analyte carryover effect was observed, and each mu-SPE device could be used for up to 30 extractions. Comparison was made with hollow fiber protected solid-phase microextraction and headspace solid-phase microextraction; mu-SPE was demonstrated to be a fast, accurate, and cost-effective pretreatment method for sewage sludge samples.

High-throughput solid-phase extraction for the determination of cimetidine in human plasma.

For the implementation and validation of an automated 'high-throughput' solid-phase extraction (SPE) system, using microtiter solid-phase technology and a pipetting robot, a SPE method previously validated manually for cimetidine in human plasma was adapted. Sample cleanup was performed by means of SPE using Microlute extraction plates in the 96-well format, each well filled with 50 mg of Varian C18 sorbent. Separation was performed by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with UV detection at 234 nm. The validated calibration range was from 0.100 to 5.00 mg/l, with an inaccuracy and imprecision below 20% at all concentration levels. Validation results on linearity, specificity, precision, accuracy and stability are shown and are found to be adequate. Cross-check analysis of samples from a clinical trial showed that there is a good correlation between results obtained by the automated method and results obtained by the manual method. The average sample preparation time for a technician decreased from approximately 4 min per sample to 0.6 min. A sample throughput of at least 160 samples per day can be achieved, the HPLC analysis time being the rate-limiting step.

Quantitative determination of benazepril and benazeprilat in human plasma by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry using automated 96-well disk plate solid-phase extraction for sample preparation.

An analytical method for the determination of benazepril and its active metabolite, benazeprilat, in human plasma by capillary gas chromatography-mass-selective detection, with their respective labelled internal standard, was developed and validated according to international regulatory requirements. After addition of the internal standards, the compounds were extracted from plasma by solid-phase extraction using automated 96-well plate technology. After elution, the compounds were converted into their methyl ester derivatives by means of a safe and stable diazomethane derivative. The methyl ester derivatives were determined by gas chromatography using a mass-selective detector at m/z 365 for benazepril and benazeprilat and m/z 370 for the internal standards. Intra- and inter-day accuracy and precision were found to be suitable over the range of concentrations between 2.50 and 1000 ng/mL.

Solid phase extraction of phencyclidine from urine followed by capillary gas chromatography/mass spectrometry.

This communication describes a method for the solid phase extraction of phencyclidine (PCP) from urine, followed by GC/MS analysis. The method is linear over the range 5-1000 ng/mL and consistently produces cleaner chromatograms than can be obtained by liquid-liquid extraction. The limits of detection and quantitation are 0.47 and 1.38 ng/mL, respectively. Extraction efficiency, or recovery, was found to be 100.8 +/- 6.5%, and the between-run precision was 3.5% (25 ng/mL, n = 51). This solid phase method for extraction of PCP from urine has several advantages over liquid-liquid extraction for laboratories of any size.

Determination of pesticide residues in coconut water by liquid-liquid extraction and gas chromatography with electron-capture plus thermionic specific detection and solid-phase extraction and high-performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection.

Two simple methods were developed to determine 11 pesticides in coconut water, a natural isotonic drink rich in salts, sugars and vitamins consumed by the people and athletes. The first procedure involves solid-phase extraction using Sep-Pak Vac C18 disposable cartridges with methanol for elution. Isocratic analysis was carried out by means of high-performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection at 254 nm to analyse captan, chlorothalonil, carbendazim, lufenuron and diafenthiuron. The other procedure is based on liquid-liquid extraction with hexane-dichloromethane (1:1, v/v), followed by gas chromatographic analysis with effluent splitting to electron-capture detection for determination of endosulfan, captan, tetradifon and trichlorfon and thermionic specific detection for determination of malathion, parathion-methyl and monocrotophos. The methods were validated with fortified samples at different concentration levels (0.01-12.0 mg/kg). Average recoveries ranged from 75 to 104% with relative standard deviations between 1.4 and 11.5%. Each recovery analysis was repeated at least five times. Limits of detection ranged from 0.002 to 2.0 mg/kg. The analytical procedures were applied to 15 samples and no detectable amounts of the pesticides were found in any samples under the conditions described.

Application of capillary zone electrophoresis with off-line solid-phase extraction to in vitro metabolism studies of antifungals.

A simple and robust solid-phase extraction (SPE) procedure for the cleanup and sample preconcentration of antifungals (ketoconazole, clotrimazole, itraconazole, fluconazole, and voriconazole) and their metabolites after incubation with human liver microsomes, as well as a simplified capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) method for their rapid analysis, have been developed to determine the stability of these compounds in in vitro samples. Three different sample pretreatment procedures using SPE with reversed-phase sorbents (100 mg C8, 100 mg C18, and 30 mg Oasis-HLB) were studied. The highest and most reproducible recoveries were obtained using a 30 mg Oasis-HLB sorbent and methanol containing 2% acetic acid as eluent. Enrichment by a factor of about four times was achieved by reconstituting the final SPE eluates to a small volume. For the CZE separation, good separations without interfering peaks due to the in vitro matrix were obtained with a simple running electrolyte using a fused-silica capillary. The best separation for all components originated by each tested drug after incubation with human liver microsomes (unmetabolized parent drug and its metabolites) was obtained using a 0.05 M phosphate running buffer (pH 2.2) without additives. The effect of the injection volume was also investigated in order to obtain the best sensitivity. Performance levels in terms of precision, linearity, limits of detection, and robustness were determined.

A rapid and sensitive method for simultaneous determination of lamivudine and zidovudine in human serum by on-line solid-phase extraction coupled to liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry detection.

A method based on solid-phase extraction (SPE) coupled to high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with positive ion electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-MS/MS) detection was developed for the simultaneous determination of lamivudine (3TC) and zidovudine (AZT) in human serum, using didanosine (ddI) as internal standard. The acquisition was performed in multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode, monitoring the transitions m/z 230.0 --> 111.8 for 3TC, m/z 268.1 --> 126.8 for AZT, and m/z 237.2 --> 136.8 for ddI. The limits of detection and quantitation were 3 and 10 ng/mL for 3TC, and 5 and 15 ng/mL for AZT. The method was linear in the studied ranges (10-1500 ng/mL for 3TC and 15-3000 ng/mL for AZT), with r(2) > 0.99 for each drug, and the run time was 4 min. The intra-assay precisions (%) were in the ranges 1.9-8.7 (3TC) and 2.2-8.9 (AZT), the inter-assay precisions were in the ranges 2.6-9.0 (3TC) and 4.2-8.1 (AZT), and the intra- and inter-assay accuracies were >97% for both drugs. The absolute recoveries were 95-99% for 3TC (45, 600 and 1200 ng/mL) and 104-112% for AZT (45, 1000 and 2400 ng/mL). The analytical method was applied to a bioequivalence study in which 24 healthy adult volunteers received single oral doses of the reference formulation and two test combined AZT/3TC tablets, in an open, three-period, balanced, randomized, crossover protocol. Based on the 90% confidence interval of the individual ratios (test formulation/reference formulation) for C(max) (peak serum concentration) and AUC(0-inf) (extrapolated area under the serum concentration vs. time curve from time zero to infinity), it was concluded that the two test formulations are bioequivalent to the reference formulation with respect to the rate and extent of absorption of both 3TC and AZT.

Solid-phase extraction of prostanoids using an automatic sample preparation system.

A commercial automated solid-phase extraction system for cyclooxygenase arachidonic acid metabolites in urine samples has been evaluated. Comparison of manual and automatic batch (36 samples) extraction procedures for tritium labelled prostanoids added as tracers to urine samples has shown equivalent results with recoveries greater than 90% for prostaglandins E2, F2alpha and 6-keto prostaglandin F1alpha as well as thromboxane B2. Analyte stability is not affected by the automated procedure, which uses less solvents and has a faster overall processing time than the manual method. The automated system has been applied to the extraction of prostanoids in urine samples from workers exposed to dichloroethane.

Removal and recovery of mercury(II) from hazardous wastes using 1-(2-thiazolylazo)-2-naphthol functionalized activated carbon as solid phase extractant.

As a part of removal of toxic heavy metals from hazardous wastes, solid phase extraction (SPE) of mercury(II) at trace and ultra trace levels was studied using 1-(2-thiazolylazo)-2-naphthol (TAN) functionalized activated carbon (AC). The SPE material removes traces of mercury(II) quantitatively in the pH range 6.0 +/- 0.2. Other parameters that influence quantitative recovery of mercury(II), viz. percent concentration of TAN in AC, amount of TAN-AC, preconcentration time and volume of aqueous phase were varied and optimized. The possible means of removal of Hg(II) from other metal ions that are likely to be present in the wastes of the chloroalkali industry is discussed. The potential of TAN-functionalized AC SPE material for decontaminating mercury from the brine sludge and cell house effluent of a chloralkali plant has been evaluated.
