Quantitation of paracetamol by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry in human plasma in support of clinical trial. Future Sci OA 2018; 4:FSO331. [PMID: 30271617 PMCID: PMC6153454 DOI: 10.4155/fsoa-2018-0039] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/21/2018] [Accepted: 06/25/2018] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Aim: Paracetamol is a well-tolerated antipyretic widely used in severe malaria management. The study aimed to develop and validate a rapid LC–MS/MS assay to quantify paracetamol in plasma from patients with severe malaria. Materials & methods: Plasma sample was precipitated by organic solvent containing isotope-labeled paracetamol internal standard. Supernatant was isolated, diluted with water, followed by LC–MS/MS analysis. Results: Plasma samples were extracted and assayed in less than 5.5 min. The assay response was linear (0.125–50 mg/l) with total intra- and interassay imprecision of <1.4%, which were considerably lower than most published reports. Conclusion: We developed, validated and applied a rapid and small volume LC–MS/MS assay with high precision and accuracy for plasma paracetamol quantitation in 989 samples from 62 patients with severe malaria. The simple and high-throughput quality could facilitate assay automation for future clinical studies. Paracetamol is a commonly prescribed antipyretic in severe malaria management. Here, a rapid quantitative assay was developed to measure the plasma level of paracetamol. The developed method required levels as low as 20 μl plasma, and was highly precise, with a short analysis time of 5.5 min. The developed method is particularly suitable for clinical trial application and potentially for clinical use.

Abstract
We report the evaluation of several mass spectrometry-based methods for the determination of carisoprodol and meprobamate in samples obtained from the rat brain by in vivo intracranial microdialyis. Among the techniques that aspire to perform analyses without chromatographic separation and thereby increase throughput, chip-based nanoelectrospray ionization and the use of an atmospheric pressure solids analysis probe fell short of requirements because of insufficient detection sensitivity and hard ionization, respectively. Although direct analysis in real time provided the required soft ionization, shortcomings of a tandem mass spectrometry-based assay also included inadequate detection sensitivity and, in addition, poor quantitative reproducibility. Therefore, liquid chromatography coupled with atmospheric pressure chemical ionization tandem mass spectrometry was developed to determine carisoprodol and meprobamate from artificial cerebrospinal fluid as the medium. No desalting and/or extraction of the samples was necessary. The assay, combined with in vivo sampling via intracranial microdialyis, afforded time-resolved concentration profiles for the drug and its major metabolite from the nucleus accumbens region of the brain in rats after systemic administration of carisoprodol.

Abstract
A new method of analysis has been developed for UV inactive drug carisoprodol using FTIR spectroscopy. These methods were validated for various parameters according to ICH guidelines. The proposed method has also been successfully applied for the determination of the drug concentration in a tablet formulation. The method proved to be accurate (mean percentage recovery between 95 and 105%), precise and reproducible (relative standard deviation<2%), while being simple, economical and less time consuming than other methods and can be used for routine estimation of carisoprodol in the pharmaceutical industry. The developed method also implicates its utility for other UV inactive substances. The stability of the drug under various stress conditions was studied and the drug was found to be particularly susceptible to alkaline hydrolysis. Degradation products of the alkaline hydrolysis were detected by RP-HPLC and tentatively identified by ESI-MS.

Abstract
The identification and quantitation of carisoprodol (Soma) and its chief metabolite meprobamate, which is also a clinically prescribed drug, remains a challenge for forensic toxicology laboratories. Carisoprodol and meprobamate are notable for their widespread use as muscle relaxants and their frequent identification in the blood of impaired drivers. Routine screening is possible in both an acidic/neutral pH screen and a traditional basic screen. An improvement in directed testing quantitations was desirable over the current options of an underivatized acidic/neutral extraction or a basic screen, neither of which used ideal internal standards. A new method was developed that utilized a simple protein precipitation, deuterated internal standards and a short 2-min isocratic liquid chromatography separation, followed by multiple reaction monitoring with tandem mass spectrometry. The linear quantitative range for carisoprodol was determined to be 1-35mg/L and for meprobamate was 0.5-50mg/L. The method was validated for specificity and selectivity, matrix effects, and accuracy and precision.

Abstract
A simple, sensitive and rapid LC-MS/MS-ESI method has been developed and validated for simultaneous quantification of the carisoprodol and aspirin in human plasma. Carisoprodol was detected in positive ion mode, whereas aspirin was detected in negative ion mode. Carbamazepine and furosemide were used as internal standards (IS) for quantification of carisoprodol and aspirin, respectively. The extraction procedure involves a liquid-liquid extraction method with ter-butyl methyl ether. Chromatographic separation was achieved on a Zorbax XDB-Phenyl (4.6 × 75 mm, 3.5 µm) column using an isocratic mobile phase (5 mm ammonium acetate:methanol, 20:80, v/v) at a flow rate of 0.8 mL/min with a total run time of 2.2 min. A detailed method validation was performed as per the FDA guidelines. The standard curves found to be linear in the range of 25.5-4900 and 15.3-3000 ng/mL for carisoprodol and aspirin, respectively. The results met the acceptance criteria. Carisoprodol and aspirin were found to be stable in various stability studies. The validated method was successfully applied to a pharmacokinetic study following co-administration of carisoprodol (250 mg) and aspirin (75 mg) tablets by oral route to human volunteers.

Abstract
An HPLC-MS/MS method has been developed for the selective quantitative analysis of paracetamol and its two major metabolites. The use of tandem MS enabled the detection and quantitation of metabolites in small sample sizes with high sensitivity and selectivity. Isocratic elution using acetonitrile and water containing formic acid combined with electrospray-tandem MS enabled the separation and accurate quantitation of each analyte and the internal standard 3-acetamidophenol. The on-column limits of detection for paracetamol, paracetamol sulfate, and paracetamol glucuronide were 2.4, 1.2, and 1.2 pmol, respectively. The method was applied to quantitate paracetamol and its metabolites in mouse urine. It is highly specific, sensitive, and easily adaptable to measure these analytes in biological fluids of other animals.

Abstract
We investigated a method for the simultaneous screening, identification, and quantitative determination of salicylic acid, acetaminophen, theophylline, barbiturates, and bromvalerylurea, drugs that frequently cause acute poisoning in Japan and therefore require rapid analysis for effective treatment in the clinical setting. The method employs liquid chromatography/electrospray mass spectrometry (LC/MS) of solid-phase extracted serum samples. For LC/MS ionization, the electrospray-ionization method was used, with acetaminophen in the positive-ion mode, and salicylic acid, theophylline, phenobarbital, bromvalerylurea, pentobarbital, amobarbital, and o-acetamidophenol (internal standard) in the negative-ion mode, the base ions were used in each case for quantitative analysis. Quantitation was possible for the following sample concentration ranges: salicylic acid and acetaminophen, 100 to 5 microg/ml; theophylline, 100 to 0.5 microg/ml; and phenobarbital, bromvalerylurea, pentobarbital, and amobarbital, 100 to 1 microg/ml. Using full-scan mass spectrometry, the lower detection limits of 1 microg/ml for salicylic acid and acetaminophen, 0.1 microg/ml for theophylline, and 0.5 microg/ml for phenobarbital, bromvalerylurea, pentobarbital, and amobarbital were adequate for identifying acute poisoning. When each compound was added to serum to a final concentration of 5 microg/ml and solid-phase extraction was performed using Oasis HLB 1-cc (30-mg), the mean recovery rate of each compound was 89.2 to 96.1% (n=5), and the coefficients of variation of the intraday and interday assays were 3.55 to 6.05% (n=5) and 3.68 to 6.38% (n=5), respectively, which are acceptable. When this method of analysis was applied in testing the sera of a female patient who had consumed a large amount of an unknown commercial drug, salicylic acid and bromvalerylurea were identified, and the treatment strategy could be determined in accordance with the serum concentration of those drugs.

Abstract
Carisoprodol (CSP) is a musculoskeletal relaxant whose active metabolite is meprobamate (MPB). This drug has recently been noticed to be abused as an inexpensive alternative to illicit drugs in Korea. A method using solid-phase extraction (SPE) and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) was developed for the determination of CSP and MPB in human hair. Hair samples (30 mg) were washed with distilled water and acetone, cut into small fragments (<1 mm), incubated in 1.0 M HCl overnight at 50 degrees C, and then adjusted to pH 6.5. The drugs were extracted from the resulting hydrolyzed solutions using a SPE column. The eluents were evaporated to dryness, then derivatized using N,O-bis(trimethylsilyl)trifluoroacetamide (BSTFA) with 1% trimethylchlorosilane (TMCS) at 120 degrees C for 30 min. The derivatized extract (1 microL) was injected into the GC/MS system. Recoveries were in the range of 91.5-93.1% for CSP and 85.5-93.0% for MPB. The linear ranges were 0.5-10.0 ng/mg for both CSP and MPB with good correlation coefficients (r(2) = 0.995). The intra-day precision and accuracy ranged from 1.5 to 9.3% and -17.5 to 3.6%, respectively, and the inter-day precision and accuracy ranged from 3.9 to 6.2% and -15.0 to -3.9%, respectively. The limits of detection for CSP and MPB were 0.13 and 0.12 ng/mg, respectively. The applicability of the method was proven by analyzing a hair sample from an authentic abuser.

Abstract
A liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry method for simultaneous determination of paracetamol and dextropropoxyphene in human plasma is described. Paracetamol and dextropropoxyphene, together with their internal standards (tolbutamide and pyrroliphene), were extracted from 0.5 mL of plasma using solid-phase extraction. The chromatography was performed using a Thermo Hypersil APS-2 Amino column (250 mm x 4.6 mm, 5 microm) with a mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile and 0.4% glacial acetic acid in water (20:80). The total run time was 6 min for each sample. The triple-quadrupole mass spectrometer was operated in both positive (for detection of dextropropoxyphene and its IS pyrroliphene) and negative (for detection of paracetamol and its IS tolbutamide) modes using a polarity-switching technique. Multiple reaction monitoring was used for quantification. The method was linear over the concentration range of 0.1-20 microg/mL for paracetamol and 0.5-80 ng/mL for dextropropoxyphene. The intra- and inter-day precision were less than 10%, and the accuracy ranged from 92.2-110.9%. The lower limits of quantification were 0.1 microg/mL for paracetamol and 0.5 ng/mL for dextropropoxyphene. The present method provides a robust, fast and sensitive analytical tool for both paracetamol and dextropropoxyphene, and has been successfully applied to a clinical bioequivalence study in 14 subjects.
