Determination of temozolomide in human plasma and urine by high-performance liquid chromatography after solid-phase extraction.

As a part of a pilot clinical study, a high-performance reversed-phase liquid chromatography analysis was developed to quantify temozolomide in plasma and urine of patients undergoing a chemotherapy cycle with temozolomide. All samples were immediately stabilized with 1 M HCl (1 + 10 of biological sample), frozen and stored at -20 degrees C prior to analysis. The clean-up procedure involved a solid-phase extraction (SPE) of clinical sample (100 microliters) on a 100-mg C18-endcapped cartridge. Matrix components were eliminated with 750 microliters of 0.5% acetic acid (AcOH). Temozolomide was subsequently eluted with 1250 microliters of methanol (MeOH). The resulting eluate was evaporated under nitrogen at RT and reconstituted in 200 microliters of 0.5% AcOH and subjected to HPLC analysis on an ODS-column (MeOH-0.5% AcOH, 10:90) with UV detection at 330 nm. The calibration curves were linear over the concentration range 0.4-20 micrograms/ml and 2-150 micrograms/ml for plasma and urine, respectively. The extraction recovery of temozolomide was 86-90% from plasma and 103-105% from urine over the range of concentrations considered. The stability of temozolomide was studied in vitro in buffered solutions at RT, and in plasma and urine at 37 degrees C. An acidic pH (< 5-6) should be maintained throughout the collection, the processing and the analysis of the sample to preserve the integrity of the drug. The method reported here was validated for use in a clinical study of temozolomide for the treatment of metastatic melanoma and high grade glioma.

Determination of debrisoquine and 4-hydroxydebrisoquine in urine by high-performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection after solid-phase extraction.

A simple, selective and sensitive method has been developed to determine debrisoquine and 4-hydroxydebrisoquine in human urine. Separation of the analytes was obtained using a mobile phase of 0.1 M sodium dihydrogen phosphate-acetonitrile (87:13, v/v) and a muBondapak C18 column. The column effluent was monitored with fluorescence detection at 210 nm (ex) and 290 nm (em). Rapid sample preparation was achieved by solid-phase extraction columns (Bond Elut CBA, 3 ml capacity) which provided excellent recovery values for both compounds. The cost per sample using this approach could be minimized by column regeneration and re-use. The within-day and the day-to-day reproducibilities were less than 7% for both components. The method was shown to be suitable for the study of the debrisoquine-sparteine type genetic polymorphism in man.

Simultaneous analysis of dehydroacetic acid, benzoic acid, sorbic acid and salicylic acid in cosmetic products by solid-phase extraction and high-performance liquid chromatography.

A high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method for simultaneous determination of dehydroacetic acid (DHA), benzoic acid (BA), sorbic acid (SOA) and salicylic acid (SA) was developed for application to cosmetic products. Isocratic reversed-phase HPLC was employed for quantitative analysis using tetra-n-butylammonium (TBA) hydroxide as an ion-pair reagent. Cosmetic samples were purified by solid-phase extraction using Bond-Elut SI cartridges. Four acidic preservatives were eluted with methanol from cartridges. The HPLC assay was carried out using TSK gel ODS-80TM column (5 microm, 150 x 4.6 mm I.D.). The mobile phase consisted of a mixture of water and methanol (65:35, v/v) containing 2.5 mM TBA hydroxide adjusted with phosphoric acid to pH 7.0. The calibration curves of these preservatives showed good linearity with UV detection (235 nm). The correlation coefficients were better than 0.999 in all cases. The lower limits of detection (defined as a signal-to-noise ratio of about 3) were approximately 2.5 ng for DHA, 4.0 ng for BA, 2.0 ng for SOA and 5.5 ng for SA. The procedure described here is simple, selective and is suitable for quality control of finished cosmetic products.

Application of single-drop microextraction and comparison with solid-phase microextraction and solid-phase extraction for the determination of alpha- and beta-endosulfan in water samples by gas chromatography-electron-capture detection.

Water contamination due to the wide variety of pesticides used in agriculture practices is a global environmental pollution problem. The 98/83 European Directive requires the measurement of pesticides residues at a target concentration of 1.0 microg/l in surface water and 0.1 microg/l in drinking water. In order to reach the level of detection required, efficient extraction techniques are necessary. The application of a new extraction technique: single-drop microextraction (SDME), followed by gas chromatography with electron-capture detection, was assessed for determining alpha-endosulfan and beta-endosulfan in water samples. Experimental parameters which control the performance of SDME, such as selection of microextraction solvent and internal standard, optimization of organic drop volume, effects of sample stirring, temperature and salt addition, and sorption time profiles were studied. Once SDME was optimized, analytical parameters such as linearity, precision, detection and quantitation limits, plus matrix effects were evaluated. The SDME method was compared with solid-phase microextraction and solid-phase extraction with the aim of selecting the most appropriate method for a certain application.

Rapid separation and analysis of six organic acids in Bayer liquors by RP-HPLC after solid-phase extraction.

A rapid revised phase high-performance liquid chromatographic (RP-HPLC) method for the determination of six organic acids in Bayer liquors is reported. Oxalic, tartaric, acetic, succinic, glutaric and butene dicarboxylic acid were separated and quantified in 10 min. First time repeatability, reproducibility and recoveries were determined out for these acids in Bayer liquors. The organic acids were removed from Bayer liquor by using a solid-phase extraction procedure with anion-exchange cartridges. The chromatographic separation was achieved with only one Kromasil RP-C18 column thermo stated at 25 degrees C. Organic acids were detected with a UV-vis detector (215 nm). The precision results showed that the relative standard deviations of the repeatability and reproducibility were < 2.80% and < 3.74%, respectively. The accuracy of the method was confirmed with an average recovery ranging between 85.2 and 107.3%. Under optimum conditions the detection limits ranged from 50 to 1000 mg/L.

Enantioselective determination of R- and S-(alpha-bromoisovaleryl)urea in plasma using high-performance liquid chromatography after solid-phase extraction.

A stereoselective method has been developed for the determination of R- and S-(alpha-bromoisovaleryl)urea in plasma and saliva after oral administration. The chiral separation was carried out on Chiralcel OJ or OD columns with hexane--2-propanol as the mobile phase. The poor detection properties of the analyte required the development of an effective sample pretreatment procedure to enable ultraviolet detection at 210 nm. Solid-phase extraction using hydrophobic Amberlite XAD-2 in combination with washing steps at alkaline and acidic pH completely removed interfering components of the biological matrix and allowed the detection of the optical isomers at concentrations down to 10 ng/ml (0.05 microM). The method was validated by determining the recovery, linearity, accuracy and within-day and between-day repeatability at 50, 200 and 2000 ng/ml. Application to the analysis of plasma and saliva samples is demonstrated.

Bio-analysis of docetaxel and hydroxylated metabolites in human plasma by high-performance liquid chromatography and automated solid-phase extraction.

A semi-automated reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method has been developed and validated for the quantification of the novel anticancer drug docetaxel in human plasma. The chromatographic system also separated putative hydroxylated metabolites. A limited validation was performed for the assay of the metabolites while these reference compounds were not available in large quantities. The sample pretreatment of the plasma samples involves a solid-phase extraction (SPE) on Cyano end-capped columns. 2'-Methylpaclitaxel was used as internal standard. An APEX-octyl column (150 x 4.6 mm I.D.; particle size 5 microns) was used with acetonitrile-0.02 M ammonium acetate buffer pH 5 mixture as the mobile phase. UV detection was performed at 227 nm. In patient samples hydroxylated docetaxel metabolites were detected and quantified by using the docetaxel calibration curve. The accuracies and precisions of the assay fall within +/- 15% for all quality control samples and within +/- 20% for the lower limit of quantitation, which was 10 ng/ml using 1.00 ml of sample for both the parent drug and its metabolites. The overall recovery of the sample pretreatment procedure for docetaxel was 78.0% +/- 5.8% anc 84.8% +/- 3.1% for the internal standard 2'-methylpaclitaxel. Docetaxel was found to be stable in human plasma at -30 degrees C for at least 6 months. At ambient temperature docetaxel was stable for at most 15 h in human plasma.

A rapid HPLC method for monitoring plasma levels of caffeine and theophylline using solid phase extraction columns.

A simple HPLC method for the determination of caffeine and theophylline in plasma is described. Separation of theobromine, paraxanthine, theophylline, beta-hydroxyethyltheophylline and caffeine is obtained using a mobile phase of 1% acetic acid/methanol (83:17, v/v) and a Waters Associates NOVA-PAK C18 column protected by a Guard-PAK precolumn module containing a Guard-PAK CN cartridge. Rapid sample preparation is achieved by solid-phase extraction columns (Bond-Elut C18, 1 mL capacity) which provide excellent recovery values for both drugs. The cost per sample using this approach can be minimised by column regeneration and re-use. Results obtained for theophylline are in good agreement with values determined by other techniques.

Method for internal standard introduction for quantitative analysis using on-line solid-phase extraction LC-MS/MS.

A novel approach for on-line introduction of internal standard (IS) for quantitative analysis using LC-MS/MS has been developed. In this approach, analyte and IS are introduced into the sample injection loop in different steps. Analyte is introduced into the injection loop using a conventional autosampler (injector) needle pickup from a sample vial. IS is introduced into the sample injection loop on-line from a microreservoir containing the IS solution using the autosampler. As a result, both analyte and IS are contained in the sample loop prior to the injection into the column. Methodology allowed to reliably introduce IS and demonstrated injection accuracy and precision comparable to those obtained using off-line IS introduction (i.e., IS and analyte are premixed before injection) while maintaining chromatographic parameters (i.e., analyte and IS elution time and peak width). This new technique was applied for direct analysis of model compounds in rat plasma using on-line solid-phase extraction (SPE) LC-MS/MS quantification. In combination with on-line SPE, IS serves as a surrogate IS and compensates for signal variations attributed to sample preparation and instrumentation factors including signal suppression. The assays yielded accuracy (85-119%), precision (2-16%), and analyte recovery comparable to those obtained using off-line IS introduction. Furthermore, on-line IS introduction allows for nonvolumetric sample (plasma) collection and direct analysis without the need of measuring and aliquoting a fixed sample volume prior to the on-line SPE LC-MS/MS analysis. Therefore, this methodology enables direct sample (plasma) analysis without any sample manipulation and preparation.

High performance liquid chromatography determination of dextromethorphan and its metabolites in urine using solid-phase extraction.

A high performance liquid chromatography assay coupled with fluorescence detection was developed for the determination of dextromethorphan and its metabolites in urine. The products and the internal standard, pholcodine, were separated on an Alltima C18, 5 microns column (250 x 4.6 mm), using a mobile phase containing sodium dodecyl sulphate (1 mM) in a mixture of acetonitrile-sodium dihydrogen phosphate (0.01 M) 40.5:59.5, v/v) (pH* = 2.5). A novel solid-phase extraction procedure with strong cation exchange, non end-capped, Isolute SCX cartridges allows good recovery of the products (mean 85% or more). For all analytes, the assay is sensitive (LOQ 25 ng ml-1, using 200 microliters urine), reproducible (RSD < 15%) and accurate (< 15% deviation of the nominal value) over the range evaluated. This method can be used to measure dextromethorphan and its metabolites to phenotype individuals as poor or extensive metabolizers of drugs metabolized by CYP2D6.

On-site solid-phase extraction and laboratory analysis of ultra-trace synthetic musks in municipal sewage effluent using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry in the full-scan mode.

Fragrance materials such as synthetic musks in aqueous samples, are normally determined by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry in the selected ion monitoring (SIM) mode to provide maximum sensitivity after liquid-liquid extraction of 1-1 samples. Full-scan mass spectra are required to verify that a target analyte has been found by comparison with the mass spectra of fragrance compounds in the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) mass spectral library. A 1-1 sample usually provides insufficient analyte for full scan data acquisition. This paper describes an on-site extraction method developed at the US Environmental Protection Agency (Las Vegas, NV, USA) for synthetic musks from 60 l of wastewater effluent. Such a large sample volume permits high-quality, full-scan mass spectra to be obtained for a wide array of synthetic musks. Quantification of these compounds was achieved from the full-scan data directly, without the need to acquire SIM data. The detection limits obtained with this method are an order of magnitude lower than those obtained from liquid-liquid and other solid-phase extraction methods. This method is highly reproducible, and recoveries ranged from 80 to 97% in spiked sewage treatment plant effluent. The high rate of sorbent-sample mass transfer eliminated the need for a methanolic activation step, which reduced extraction time, labor, and solvent use. More samples could be extracted in the field at lower cost. After sample extraction, the light-mass cartridges are easily transported and stored.

Analysis of N,N-diethyl-m-toluamide in porcine skin perfusates using solid-phase extraction disks and reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography.

N,N-Diethyl-m-toluamide (DEET) is frequently used as an insect repellent by military and civilian populations. Because dermal exposure has resulted in several cases of DEET toxicosis, there is a need to rapidly and reliably determine DEET concentrations in biological matrices. An improved method for the analysis of DEET was developed for determining transdermal diffusion of low levels of DEET following application to an in vitro porcine skin flow-through diffusion cell system. The technical improvement involved the use of disk solid-phase extraction (SPE) instead of packed-bed SPE. The disk SPE method required small volumes of preconditioning, wash, and elution solvent (0.5-1 ml) to extract DEET from perfusate samples containing bovine serum albumin (BSA). The limit of quantitation (LOQ) was estimated as 0.08 micro g/ml DEET and recoveries from BSA media samples spiked with DEET ranged from 90.1 to 117% with relative standard deviation (RSD) ranging from 2.0 to 13.1%. This method was used to analyze perfusate samples from skin (n=4) topically exposed to DEET-ethanol formulations. The data from these analyses determined that DEET permeability in porcine skin was 2.55 x 10(-5)+/-0.54 x 10(-5) cm/h.

Monitoring of phenytoin in human breast milk, maternal plasma and cord blood plasma by solid-phase extraction and liquid chromatography.

A rapid liquid chromatographic method for the quantitation of phenytoin in human breast milk, maternal plasma and cord blood plasma was developed using a Develosil C85 micron reverse phase column and a potassium dihydrogen phosphate buffer/acetonitrile mobile phase. Phenytoin and mephenytoin as an internal standard were detected by ultraviolet absorbance at 240 nm. The sample preparation method involves a rapid and simple procedure based on solid-phase extraction using a C18-bonded phase. Phenytoin could be determined in the concentration range of 0.05-3 micrograms ml-1. The recovery of phenytoin added to human breast milk and plasma were 91.6-94.7 and 91.6-96.0%, respectively, with coefficient of variation less than 4.2 and 8.7%. The method has been used for drug level monitoring in the human breast milk, maternal plasma and cord blood plasma samples that were taken from patients treated with phenytoin. The average ratio between the breast milk concentrations versus the plasma concentration was 0.28 +/- 0.1, with a rather poor correlation (r = 0.3033).

Towards ochratoxin A selective molecularly imprinted polymers for solid-phase extraction.

Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) displaying selective binding properties for the mycotoxin ochratoxin A (OTA) in polar/protic media were prepared. Crucial to the success of these efforts was the implementation of rationally designed OTA mimics as templates and a set of novel basic and neutral functional monomers, allowing the maximization of the template-functional monomer association via ion-pairing, hydrophobic and steric interactions. MIPs prepared with a 20:1:1:3 molar ratio of cross-linking agent, template mimic, basic functional monomer and hydrophobic auxiliary monomer produced polymers with superior recognition properties compared to materials generated with other stoichiometries. Chromatographic evaluation using the OTA mimics, OTA and a set of structurally closely related compounds as analytes revealed pronounced substrate selectivity of these MIPs in polar/protic media, the templates and OTA being bound with significantly higher affinities. Complementary substrate selectivities/affinities were observed in aprotic and apolar solvents. The possibility of solvent-dependent tuning of substrate selectivity/affinity and the high binding capacity recommend the developed MIPs as promising solid-phase extraction adsorbents for clean-up and pre-concentration of OTA from various biologically relevant matrices.

Simultaneous determination of lansoprazole enantiomers and their metabolites in plasma by liquid chromatography with solid-phase extraction.

A simple and highly sensitive high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method for the simultaneous quantitative determination of lansoprazole enantiomers and their metabolites, 5-hydroxylansoprazole enantiomers and lansoprazole sulfone, in human plasma have been developed. Chromatographic separation was achieved with a Chiral CD-Ph column using a mobile phase of 0.5M NaClO(4)-acetonitrile-methanol (6:3:1 (v/v/v)). The analysis required only 100 microl of plasma and involved a solid-phase extraction with Oasis HLB cartridge, with a high extraction recovery (>94.1%) and good selectivity. The lower limit of quantification (LOQ) of this assay was 10 ng/ml for each enantiomer of both lansoprazole and 5-hydroxylansoprazole, and 5 ng/ml for lansoprazole sulfone. The coefficient of variation of inter- and intra-day assay was <8.0% and accuracy was within 8.4% for all analytes (concentration range 10-1000 ng/ml). The linearity of this assay was set between 10 and 1000 ng/ml (r2>0.999 of the regression line) for each of the five analytes. This method is applicable for accurate and simultaneous monitoring of the plasma levels of lansoprazole enantiomers and their metabolites in the renal transplant recipients.

Determination of metronidazole in vaginal tissue by high-performance liquid chromatography using solid-phase extraction.

A sensitive high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method for the determination of metronidazole in vaginal tissue is reported. The method uses a Zorbax SB phenyl column with a 0.01 M aqueous monobasic potassium phosphate buffer (pH 4.0)-absolute methanol (85:15, v/v) as mobile phase at a flow-rate of 1.0 ml/min and detection at 313 nm. Tinidazole was used as the internal standard. The method employed homogenization of tissue followed by solid-phase extraction. The quantitation was achieved within 30 min with sensitivity in the ng/g range. Metronidazole was linear in the 100-2000 ng/g range. The accuracy and precision were in the 1-4% range for the drug and the limit of detection was approximately 100 ng/g based on a signal-to-noise ratio of 3 and a 1009-microliters injection.

Trace analysis of zotepine and its active metabolite in plasma by capillary electrophoresis with solid phase extraction and head-column field-amplified sample stacking.

A sensitive high-performance capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) with head-column field-amplified sample stacking (FASS) in binary system has been developed for the simultaneous determination of zotepine and its active metabolite, norzotepine, in human plasma. The separation of zotepine and norzotepine was performed using a background electrolyte consisting of 50% ethylene glycol-borate buffer (20mM, pH 8.0) solution with 20% methanol as the running buffer and on-column detection at 200 nm. Under the optimal FASS-CZE condition, good separation with high efficiency and short analysis time is achieved. Several parameters affecting the separation and sensitivity of the drug were studied, including sample matrix, pH and concentrations of the borate buffer, ethylene glycol and methanol. Using clozapine as an internal standard, the linear ranges of the method for the determination of zotepine and norzotepine in human plasma were over 3-100 ng/mL; the detection limits of zotepine and norzotepine in plasma were 2 and 1 ng/mL, respectively. A sample pretreatment by means of solid-phase extraction (SPE) with subsequent quantitation by FASS-CZE was used. The application of the proposed method for determination of zotepine and norzotepine in plasma collected after oral administration of 125 mg zotepine in one schizophrenic patient was demonstrated.

Picogram determination of iloperidone in human plasma by solid-phase extraction and by high-performance liquid chromatography-selected-ion monitoring electrospray mass spectrometry.

A very sensitive liquid chromatographic-mass spectrometric (LC-MS) method has been developed to quantitate iloperidone, 1, and its principal metabolite, 4-[3-[4-(6-fluoro-1,2- benzisoxazol-3-yl)-1-piperidinyl]propoxy]-3-methoxy-alpha- methylbenzenemethanol, 2, in human plasma. Iloperidone is currently used in clinical trials for the treatment of psychoses. The analytes were extracted from human plasma using mixed-mode Bond-Elut Certify cartridges and quantitated using selected-ion monitoring electrospray ionization mass spectrometery (SIM-ES-MS). No interference was observed from endogenous compounds following the extraction of plasma samples from six different human subjects. The limit of quantitation for 1 and 2 was 250 pg/ml of plasma. The standard curves were linear over a working range of 250 pg to 20 ng/ml. Absolute recoveries from plasma ranged from 82 to 101% and 73 to 97% for 1 and 2, respectively. Overall intra-day precision ranged from 0 to 9% and 0.9 to 12.5% for 1 and 2, respectively. The method was found to be rugged and very reliable due to the high specificity of SIM-ES-MS. The results obtained from this study confirm the application of solid-phase extraction combined with SIM-ES-MS in quantitating basic drugs in small quantities in biological extracts.
