Abstract:
Two on-line configurations using multiple 6- and 10-port valves were investigated for high-flow on-line extraction of a basic drug in rat plasma and human urine using a reversed-phase and a cation-exchange SPE sorbent. The first configuration studied was a single reversed-phase extraction cartridge (2.1 x 20 mm, 25 microm) using an optimized washing protocol. The results showed that up to 1.5 mL of sample (urine or plasma diluted 1:1) can be injected with limits of quantification (LOQs) as low as 100 pg/mL. The second configuration studied was the combination of a cation exchanger and a reversed-phase cartridge using at-column dilution. The results showed better LOQs than those obtained with the single cartridge at 10 pg/mL with the same injection volume. The mass spectrometer was operated in the multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode. All calibration curves gave an average of 5% relative standard deviation (RSD).
