Popis: A capillary gas chromatographic/mass spectrometric method for the determination of tebufelone, a new anti-inflammatory drug, in plasma and rat paw tissue is described. Trideuteriated tubufelone was employed as an internal standard and the drug quantified by selected ion monitoring using a mass-selective detector following positive electron ionization (70 eV). Tebufelone was recovered from plasma (greater than 93%) and pulverized paw tissue (greater than 88%) by ethereal extraction. Standard curves were linear between 5 ng ml-1 and 5 micrograms ml-1 with a detection limit (S/N = 2) of 2 ng ml-1. The coefficient of variation for successive injections of standards (200 ng ml-1) or samples (10-1500 ng ml-1) was 7.3% and 8.5%, respectively.
