Development of a solid-phase extraction method for simultaneous extraction of adipic acid, succinic acid and 1,4-butanediol formed during hydrolysis of poly(butylene adipate) and poly(butylene succinate).

A solid-phase extraction (SPE) method was developed for the simultaneous extraction of dicarboxylic acids and diols formed during hydrolysis of poly(butylene succinate), PBS, and poly(butylene adipate), PBA. Four commercial non-polar SPE columns, three silica based: C8, C18, C18 (EC), and one resin based: ENV+, were tested for the extraction of succinic acid, adipic acid and 1,4-butanediol, the expected final hydrolysis products of PBS and PBA. ENV+ resin was chosen as a solid-phase, because it displayed the best extraction efficiency for 1,4-butanediol and succinic acid. Linear range for the extracted analytes was 1-500 ng/microl for adipic acid and 2-500 ng/microl for 1,4-butanediol and succinic acid. Detection and quantification limits for the analytes were between 1-2 and 2-7 ng/microl, respectively, and relative standard deviations were between 3 and 7%. Good repeatability and low detection limits made the developed SPE method and subsequent gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis a sensitive tool for identification and quantification of hydrolysis products at early stages of degradation.

Quantitative determination of a chemically modified hammerhead ribozyme in blood plasma using 96-well solid-phase extraction coupled with high-performance liquid chromatography or capillary gel electrophoresis.

Versatile bioanalytical assays to detect chemically stabilized hammerhead ribozyme and putative ribozyme metabolites from plasma are described. The extraction protocols presented are based on serial solid-phase extractions performed on a 96-well plate format and are compatible with either IEX-HPLC or CGE back-end analysis. A validation of both assays confirmed that both the HPLC and the CGE methods possess the required linearity, accuracy, and precision to accurately measure concentrations of hammerhead ribozyme extracted from plasma. These methods should be of general use to detect and quantitate ribozymes from other biological fluids such as serum and urine.

Analysis of estrogens in river water and effluents using solid-phase extraction and gas chromatography-negative chemical ionisation mass spectrometry of the pentafluorobenzoyl derivatives.

A procedure was developed for the analysis of estrogens in environmental water and effluents. Samples were extracted by passing through polymer-impregnated solid-phase extraction discs or C18 cartridges, followed by gas chromatography-negative chemical ionisation mass spectrometry of the pentafluorobenzoyl derivatives. The derivatives were stable and gave diagnostic negative molecular ions as the base peak for each of the major estrogens studied. The absolute recovery of estrogens spiked into clean groundwater using the disc procedure was 84-116% at the 10 ng l(-1) level (calculation not based on use of internal standards). Using doubly deuterated estradiol as internal standard added prior to extraction, the % relative standard deviation of estrogen extraction and analysis in spiked groundwater at the 10 ng(-1) level was 2.6-9.8%. Detection limits were 0.2 ng l(-1) or below for the major estrogens, based on a 2.5 litre sample. The most abundant estrogen was estrone, with concentrations over the range 6.4-29 ng l(-1) in effluents, and 0.2 to 17 ng l(-1) in water from the River Thames.

LC-MS-MS determination of exemestane in human plasma with heated nebulizer interface following solid-phase extraction in the 96 well plate format.

A sensitive, specific and rapid analytical method for the quantitation of exemestane (EXE) in human plasma has been developed. EXE, 6-methylen-androsta-1,4-diene-3,17-dione, is an orally active irreversible steroidal aromatase inhibitor used for the therapy of metastatic postmenopausal breast cancer, with estrogen-dependent pathological conditions. The method involves extraction of EXE from human plasma by solid phase extraction using C2 endcapped sorbent in the 96 well plate format (50 mg/2 ml). After conditioning of the sorbent with 1 ml of acetonitrile (x2) the plates were rinsed with 1 ml of water (x2). The prepared samples (0.5 ml plasma, spiked with [13C3] EXE as internal standard (IS) and diluted with 0.5 ml water) were loaded and drawn through the plate with a minimum of vacuum. The plates were then washed with 1 ml acetonitrile:water (10:90) followed by a drying step for 30 min at full vacuum. Elution was by 0.15 ml of 0.1% trifluoracetic acid in acetonitrile (x2) under a minimum of vacuum. Aliquots of 80 microl were finally injected into the LC-MS-MS system. A Zorbax SB C8 column (4.6 x 150 mm, 5 microm) was used to perform the chromatographic separation; the mobile phase was 100% acetonitrile. MS detection used the heated nebulizer interface, with multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) (297-->121 m/z for EXE and 300-->123 m/z for IS) operated in positive ion mode. A weighed linear regression analysis (weighing factor 1/x2) was used to calculate EXE concentration in standard and unknown samples. The method was fully validated in the concentration range 0.05-25 ng ml(-1).

Polypyrrole modified stainless steel frits for on-line micro solid phase extraction of ochratoxin A.

Polypyrrole (PPy) was electrochemically synthesized on stainless steel frits as a sorbent for the micro solid phase extraction (muSPE) of ochratoxin A (OTA). Using 20 microl of standard solution under a fast flow rate of 0.5 ml/min, 80% recovery of OTA was achieved in the concentration range from 0.1-10 pg/mul. This good recovery was achieved within a short residence time of 1.2 s. A binding capacity of 1 ng OTA was estimated for each PPy-modified frit, or 2 ng OTA for two frits in series. The bound OTA could be pulsed eluted (PE) with 20 microl of 1% triethylamine in acetonitrile. On-line coupling of this PPy-on-a-frit and PE technique to high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was straightforward. On-line muSPE-PE-HPLC results clearly demonstrated the capability of PPy-on-a-frit to bind OTA in the presence of red wine, beer, and orange juice components.

Potential of solid phase extraction disks to aid determination of dislodgeable foliar residues of chlorpyriphos, malathion, diazinon, and acephate.

The utility of solid phase extraction (SPE) for concentrating four organophosphate insecticides from solutions of water and sodium dioctyl sulfosuccinate, a surfactant, was evaluated. Reverse phase (C18, octadecyl bonded silica) sorbent in the form of a disk was the SPE medium evaluated. Chlorpyriphos, malathion, and diazinon, but not acephate, were retained on and eluted from the SPE disks. For pesticides that were retained on SPE disks, recoveries from the disks were equal to or higher than recoveries achieved by solvent partitioning. Dislodgeable foliar residues of acephate were successfully concentrated for analysis by lyophilization of water-surfactant solutions. Recoveries of pesticides from SPE disks stored at -15 degrees C for one week were equal to or higher than those of pesticides stored in water-surfactant for one week at -15 degrees C. Malathion- and diazinon-fortified samples in watersurfactant and on SPE disks were prepared in one state and shipped for analysis in another state. Pesticides in the water-surfactant samples were concentrated by solvent partitioning and were underestimated by 41% (diazinon) and 16% (malathion). Conversely, diazinon samples on the SPE disks were on average underestimated by 3% and malathion was overestimated by an average of 55%. The overestimation of malathion was attributed to a matrix effect during analysis associated with the presence of surfactant, which was retained on and subsequently eluted from the SPE disks. The retention of surfactant by the SPE disks and its subsequent elution may considerably limit their usefulness in determination of dislodgeable foliar residues.

Isolation of cholesterol oxidation products from animal fat using aminopropyl solid-phase extraction.

Cholesterol oxidation products were separated from triglycerides and cholesterol in a single step on an aminopropyl solid-phase extraction column. The products were purified by subsequent transesterification and saponification, derivatized to trimethylsilyl ethers and analyzed by gas chromatography. Heated cholesterol-containing fat samples were autoxidized by bubbling air through them. When the flow-rate of air was set at 100 ml/min, the concentration of cholesterol oxidation products in the fat increased to a maximum after 1-2 h and then decreased to almost a zero level after 8 h. The concentration of cholesterol oxidation products in the fat increased over a similar time period, without reaching a maximum, when the flow-rate of air was decreased to 5 ml/min.

An on-line semi-automated solid-phase extraction procedure for high-performance liquid chromatographic determination of lonidamine in serum.

A semi-automated solid-phase extraction procedure on-line with gradient elution reversed-phase chromatography permits the determination of lonidamine and its metabolite in human serum. The average recovery from serum at the 2.5 micrograms ml-1 level was (92.8 +/- 3.4)%. The limit of quantitation for a 100 microliter sample size was 50 ng ml-1. The within-day (n = 5) and between-day (n = 5) relative standard deviations for lonidamine determination in serum samples spiked at the 2.5 micrograms ml-1 level were 2.7% and 4.5%, respectively.

Development of a solid phase extraction for 13 'new' generation antidepressants and their active metabolites for gas chromatographic-mass spectrometric analysis.

A solid phase extraction procedure (SPE) for 13 'new' antidepressants (venlafaxine, fluoxetine, viloxazine, fluvoxamine, mianserin, mirtazapine, melitracen, reboxetine, citalopram, maprotiline, sertraline, paroxetine and trazodone) together with eight of their metabolites (O-desmethylvenlafaxine, norfluoxetine, desmethylmianserine, desmethylmirtazapine, desmethylcitalopram, didesmethylcitalopram, desmethylsertraline and m-chlorophenylpiperazine) from plasma is optimized using HPLC-DAD as monitoring system. Special attention has been paid to the choice of washing and eluting solvent, resulting in a highly concentrated, clean and moisture free extract, also suitable for GC-MS. A total number of 10 sorbents (apolar, polymeric, ion-exchange and mixed mode) was evaluated. Based on recovery, reproducibility and absence of interfering substances the strong cation exchanger gave the best results. Recoveries were determined at low and high therapeutic and toxic levels and ranged between 70 and 109% for all compounds, except for trazodone (39%).

Simultaneous analysis of citalopram and desmethylcitalopram by liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection after solid-phase extraction.

OBJECTIVES: To develop a HPLC method for the determination of citalopram (CIT) and desmethylcitalopram (DCIT). METHODS: Solid-phase extraction followed by fluorescence detection was used to measure CIT and DCIT in deproteinized plasma. RESULTS: The extraction recovery for both analytes was 104 +/- 3%. The calibration was linear over the concentration range of 12-1600 ng/mL for CIT and 6-800 ng/mL for DCIT. The within-run CVs were 2.5% for CIT (400 ng/mL) and 2.9% for DCIT (200 ng/mL) and the between-run CVs were 5.2% for CIT and 2.9% for DCIT, respectively. With low concentrations of CIT (50 ng/mL) and DCIT (25 ng/mL), the within-run CVs were 3.1% and 1.1% and the between-run CVs were 7.4% and 8.8%, respectively. The lower limit of quantification was 12 ng/mL for CIT and 6 ng/mL for DCIT. CONCLUSIONS: This method allows for the simultaneous determination of CIT and DCIT in plasma at therapeutic and toxic drug concentrations.

Solid-phase extraction sorbent consisting of alkyltrimethylammonium surfactants immobilized onto strong cation-exchange polystyrene resin.

Presented is a solid-phase extraction sorbent material composed of cationic alkyltrimethylammonium surfactants attached to a strong cation-exchange resin via ion-exchange. The original hydrophilic cation-exchange resin is made hydrophobic by covering the surface with alkyl chains from the hydrophobic portion of the surfactant. The sorbent material now has a better ability to extract hydrophobic molecules from aqueous samples. The entire stationary phase (alkyltrimethylammonium surfactant) is removed along with the analyte during the elution step. The elution step requires a mild elution solvent consisting of 0.25 M Mg2+ in a 50% 2-propanol solution. The main advantage of using a removable stationary phase is that traditionally utilized toxic elution solvents such as methylene chloride, which are necessary to efficiently release strongly hydrophobic species from SPE stationary phases, may now be avoided. Also, the final extract is directly compatible with reversed-phase liquid chromatography. The performance of this procedure is presented using pyrene as a test molecule.

Dual-function microanalytical device by in situ photolithographic grafting of porous polymer monolith: integrating solid-phase extraction and enzymatic digestion for peptide mass mapping.

Microfluidic devices with a dual function containing both a solid-phase extractor and an enzymatic microreactor have been prepared, and their operation has been demonstrated. The devices were fabricated from a 25-mm-long porous poly(butyl methacrylate-co-ethylene dimethacrylate) monolith prepared within a 50-microm-i.d. capillary. This capillary with a pulled 9-12-microm needle tip was used as a nanoelectrospray emitter coupling the device to a mass spectrometer. Photografting with irradiation through a mask was then used to selectively functionalize a 20-mm-long portion of the monolith, introducing reactive poly(2-vinyl-4,4-dimethylazlactone) chains to enable the subsequent attachment of trypsin, thereby creating an enzymatic microreactor with high proteolytic activity. The other 5 mm of unmodified hydrophobic monolith served as micro solid-phase extractor (microSPE). The dual-function devices were used in two different flow directions; concentration of myoglobin that was absorbed from its dilute solution, followed by elution and digestion or digestion, followed by concentration. Operations in both directions afforded equal sequence coverage. Different volumes of myoglobin solution ranging from 2 to 20 microL were loaded on the device. Very high sequence coverages of almost 80% were achieved for the highest loading. Despite the very short length of the extractor unit, the device operated in the digest-solid-phase extraction direction also enabled the separation of peaks that mostly contained undigested protein and peptides.

Multiresidue screening of pesticides in fruits using an automatic solid-phase extraction system.

About 20 pesticides were determined in lyophilized fruits using a semiautomatic multiresidue method, based on solid-phase extraction (SPE) with a silica column. The lyophilization of the sample, besides the SPE procedure selected, provided clean extracts despite the complexity of the matrixes studied. In addition, the lyophilization process allows sample preservation for at least three months without changes in the concentrations of the pesticides. Determination and quantitation of organochlorine and pyrethroid residues was carried out using a gas chromatograph equipped with an electron capture detector (GC-ECD), and a mass spectrometric detector (GC-MS) was used for confirmation purposes. Organochlorine pesticides provided average recoveries (spiked at three concentration levels in eight different fruits) near 93 +/- 4%, being lower (89 +/- 8%) for pyrethroids as a consequence of their higher degradation and interaction with the sample matrix. On the other hand, the detection limits achieved for all pesticides (0.5-8 ng per g of lyophilized fruit) allow their determination at the MRLs established by the European Union, with good precision ( approximately 5%). Finally, from the 100 different fruits screened, only 10 positive responses were obtained, which were further confirmed by GC-MS.

Solid-phase extraction and HPLC analysis of methylparaben and propylparaben in a concentrated antibiotic suspension.

An accurate and precise solid-phase extraction coupled with high performance liquid chromatography (SPE/HPLC) method developed for the quantification of antimicrobial preservatives (methylparaben and propylparaben) in oxytetracycline injectable suspension is described in this article. The SPE technique was necessary to quantify the preservatives since the high concentration of the drug and excipients was masking low levels of preservatives, making quantification difficult. This developed HPLC method was stability-indicating and found to be linear between 1.3 to 2.4 mg/mL for methylparaben and 0.15 to 0.27 mg/mL for propylparaben in this concentrated antibiotic suspension formulation. The extraction recoveries were 98.8-101.6%. System precision and sample extraction precision (RSD) were less than 1%.

The feasibility of the detection and quantitation of beta-adrenergic blockers by solid-phase extraction and subsequent derivatization with methaneboronic acid.

Urine specimens containing 11 common beta blockers were processed using solid-phase extraction technology to extract the drugs from the urine matrix, then converted to their cyclic methaneboronates by treatment with methaneboronic acid in ethyl acetate. The compounds tested included acebutolol, atenolol, alprenolol, bisoprolol, betaxolol, carteolol, penbutolol, propranolol, pindolol, timolol, nadolol, sotalol, labetolol, metoprolol, and oxprenolol. The extraction efficiencies were greater than 90% for all drugs tested. The cyclic methaneboronates formed by this procedure generally possessed good chromatographic properties. The mass spectral behavior of the methaneboronates was excellent, with all compounds containing several high mass fragments and every tested compound possessing a unique mass spectrum.

Determination of ribavirin in serum using highly selective solid-phase extraction and high-performance liquid chromatography.

A rapid assay for determination of ribavirin in serum using solid-phase extraction (SPE), high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and UV-detection was developed. The SPE uses phenylboronic acid columns with an approximately 100% recovery for ribavirin. The concentration-peak area relation was linear (r > 0.995), from 1 to 64 microM in 100 microL serum. The limit of detection was 0.1 microM. The intraassay CV was 3.2% at treatment levels (9.7 microM) and 11.5% at 0.4 microM. The method is used to monitor patients undergoing ribavirin treatment for hepatitis C (HCV). Samples from HCV-infected patients with and without renal dysfunction have been analyzed without interference of endogenous compounds. It is concluded that the method is useful for routine therapeutic drug monitoring.

[Simultaneous determination of propanil, carbaryl and 3,4-dichloroaniline in human serum by HPLC with UV detector following solid phase extraction].

In case of poisoning by herbicide compounded with Propanil (DCPA) and Carbaryl (NAC), we attempted simultaneous solid-phase extractions of DCPA, NAC, and 3,4-dichloroaniline (DCA), a metabolite of DCPA, from the patient's serum, and quantitative analytical method using HPLC-UV detection. With this HPLC method, the quantitative detection limits in the serum are 0.005 microgram/ml for DCPA and DCA and 0.001 microgram/ml for NAC, and the UV spectra of all three compounds could easily be obtained using a diode-array detection limit of 0.05 microgram/ml. When the three compounds were added to serum at concentrations ranging from 0.1-10.0 micrograms/ml, the recovery rates were satisfactory at between 91.1% and 101.9%. On analysis of the serum of patient who had ingested Kusanon A Emulsion, the ingested substance apparently caused an increase in the DCA concentration, which led to the appearance of methemoglobinemia. The possibility that the DCA concentration might be used for prognostic purposes was suggested.

Solid-phase extraction protocol for isolating retinol-d4 and retinol from plasma for parallel processing for epidemiological studies.

Solid-phase extraction permits the parallel processing of samples in large numbers. We have applied this technique to the isolation of retinol isotopomers from plasma of humans participating in a study of vitamin A stable isotope dilution. The isotopomers were analyzed by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. The extraction involves the separation of retinol from its aqueous matrix with a C18 silica-based sorbent followed by removal of lipid contaminants with an aminopropyl silica-based sorbent. Overall recovery of retinol from plasma was 47.2% +/- 1.8%. Purity of the retinol isolated from plasma is comparable with that obtained with a single HPLC method. This method permits the preparation of 32 samples per day by one analyst. Elimination of the need for HPLC permits sample preparation in the field with a minimum of equipment and technical skill.
