We report for the first time an ultra performance liquid chromatographic method with tandem mass spectrometric detection (UPLC/MS/MS) for the determination of norethindrone alone in human plasma over the concentration range of 50.0-25000 pg mL(-1) using a sample volume of 0.250 mL. Norethindrone and its internal standard (ISTD), norethindrone-(13)C(2), were extracted from human plasma by supported liquid extraction (SLE). After evaporation of the organic solvent, samples were reconstituted and analyzed on an UPLC/MS/MS system. The UPLC system used a Waters BEH C18 (100 mm × 2.1mm, 1.7 μm) column with mobile phase A of 0.05% formic acid in water:acetonitrile (65:35, v/v) and mobile phase B of 0.05% formic acid in methanol:acetonitrile (50:50, v/v). The flow rate was 0.500 mL min(-1). The method was fully validated. The inter-run accuracy and precision at the lower limit of quantitation (LLOQ), low, mid and high quality control (QC) concentration levels were 99.2-108.4% with a <8.1% CV (coefficient of variation), respectively. The validated method has been successfully applied to analysis of thousands of pharmacokinetic samples.
我们首次报道了一种超高效液相色谱-串联质谱法(UPLC/MS/MS),用于测定人血浆中单独的去氧孕烯浓度范围为 50.0-25000 pg/mL(使用 0.250 mL 样品体积)。去氧孕烯及其内标(ISTD),去氧孕烯-(13)C(2),通过支持液体萃取(SLE)从人血浆中提取。在蒸发有机溶剂后,用 UPLC/MS/MS 系统重新制备和分析样品。UPLC 系统使用 Waters BEH C18(100mm×2.1mm,1.7μm)柱,流动相 A 为 0.05%甲酸水溶液:乙腈(65:35,v/v),流动相 B 为 0.05%甲酸甲醇:乙腈(50:50,v/v)。流速为 0.500mL/min。该方法经过全面验证。在定量下限(LLOQ)、低、中、高质控(QC)浓度水平的批间准确度和精密度分别为 99.2-108.4%,<8.1%CV(变异系数)。验证后的方法已成功应用于数千个药代动力学样品的分析。
