Popis: | A rapid, sensitive, selective and specific HPLC/ESI-MS/MS assay method was developed and validated for the simultaneous quantitation of alpha-/beta-diastereomers of arteether (AE), sulphadoxine (SDX) and pyrimethamine (PYR) in rat blood plasma using propyl ether analogue of beta-arteether as internal standard. The method involved a single-step, liquid-liquid extraction with ethyl acetate and the analytes were chromatographed on a C18 chromatographic column by isocratic elution with methanol:ammonium acetate buffer (10 mM, pH 4) (90:10%, v/v) and analyzed by tandem mass spectrometry. The run time was 4.5 min and the weighted (1/x2) calibration curves were linear over a range of 0.78-400 ng ml-1. The method was validated fully and the lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) in plasma was 0.78 ng ml-1 for all the analytes. The intra- and inter-day precision and accuracy were found to be well within the acceptable limits ( |
