Rationale: For the purpose of doping control, this is the first report of accurate quantification of four critical structural isomers of nicotine metabolites (trans‐3′‐hydroxycotinine, cis‐3′‐hydroxycotinine, 5′‐hydroxycotinine, and N′‐hydroxymethylnorcotinine) in equine plasma and urine for the establishment of their elimination profiles. Besides, the pharmacokinetic studies of trans‐3′‐hydroxycotinine and N′‐hydroxymethylnorcotinine in equine plasma and urine are also presented for the first time. Methods: The accurate quantification methods of the aforementioned four structural isomers in horse plasma and urine were successfully developed and validated using the solid‐phase extractions followed by liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry analysis. Baseline chromatographic separation was achieved to completely differentiate these isomers, which shared the same selected reaction monitoring transition. Such methods were applied to post‐administration samples obtained from the nicotine and tobacco leaf administration studies for the establishment of pharmacokinetic profiles. Results: N′‐Hydroxymethylnorcotinine could be quantified for the longest period, ranging from 48 to 72 h in plasma and 96 h in urine after a single administration of 250 mg of nicotine and an equivalent amount of nicotine in tobacco leaves. In terms of detection, both N′‐hydroxymethylnorcotinine and trans‐3′‐hydroxycotinine could be detected up to the last sample collection time point (96 h), indicating that they are the most appropriate biomarkers for nicotine exposure. Conclusions: N′‐Hydroxymethylnorcotinine and trans‐3′‐hydroxycotinine were detected longest in plasma and urine samples after both nicotine and tobacco leaf administrations, and N′‐hydroxymethylnorcotinine was deemed most appropriate as a monitoring target due to its relatively higher abundance and slower elimination rate. These two biomarkers could also be used to differentiate sample contamination by tobacco products and genuine nicotine exposure to horse regardless of intentionality. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
