Abstract
OBJECTIVES Phenobarbital serves as an antiepileptic drug (AED) and finds application in the treatment of epilepsy either as monotherapy or adjunctive therapy. This drug exhibits various pharmacodynamic properties that account for its beneficial effects as well as potential side effects. Accurate measurement of its concentration is critical for optimizing AED therapy through appropriate dose adjustments. Therefore, our objective was to develop and validate a new reference measurement procedure (RMP) for the accurate quantification of phenobarbital levels in human serum and plasma. METHODS A sample preparation protocol based on protein precipitation followed by a high dilution step was established in combination with a liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method using a C8 column to separate target analytes from known and unknown interferences. Assay validation and determination of measurement uncertainty were performed based on current guidelines. Selectivity and Specificity were assessed using spiked serum and plasma samples; to investigate possible matrix effects (MEs) a post-column infusion experiment and a comparison of standard line slopes was performed. Precision and accuracy were determined within a multiday precision experiment. RESULTS The RMP was shown to be highly selective and specific, with no evidence of matrix interferences. It can be used to quantify phenobarbital in the range of 1.92 to 72.0 μg/mL. Intermediate precision was less than 3.2 %, and repeatability coefficient of variation (CV) ranged from 1.3 to 2.0 % across all concentration levels. The relative mean bias ranged from -3.0 to -0.7 % for native serum levels, and from -2.8 to 0.8 % for Li-heparin plasma levels. The measurement uncertainties (k=1) for single measurements and target value assignment were 1.9 to 3.3 % and 0.9 to 1.6 %, respectively. CONCLUSIONS A novel LC-MS/MS-based candidate RMP for the quantification of phenobarbital in human serum and plasma is presented which can be used for the standardization of routine assays and the evaluation of clinically relevant samples.

Xiong J, Tian L, Shen X, Huang C. Comparison of the applicability of electromembrane extraction and liquid-phase microextraction for extraction of non-polar basic drugs from different biological samples: Using clozapine as the model analyte. J Sep Sci 2024; 47:e2300745. [PMID: 38356226 DOI: 10.1002/jssc.202300745] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/08/2023] [Revised: 01/10/2024] [Accepted: 01/24/2024] [Indexed: 02/16/2024]
Abstract
Understanding and comparing the applicability of electromembrane extraction (EME) and liquid-phase microextraction (LPME) is crucial for selecting an appropriate microextraction approach. In this work, EME and LPME based on supported liquid membranes were compared using biological samples, including whole blood, urine, saliva, and liver tissue. After optimization, efficient EME and LPME of clozapine from four biological samples were achieved. EME provided higher recovery and faster mass transfer for blood and liver tissue than LPME. These advantages were attributed to the electric field disrupting clozapine binding to interfering substances. For urine and saliva, EME demonstrated similar recoveries while achieving faster mass transfer rates. Finally, efficient EME and LPME were validated and evaluated combined with liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). The coefficient of determination of all methods was greater than 0.999, and all methods showed acceptable reproducibility (≤14%), accuracy (90%-110%), and matrix effect (85%-112%). For liver and blood with high viscosity and complex matrices, EME-LC-MS/MS provided better sensitivity than LPME-LC-MS/MS. The above results indicated that both EME and LPME could be used to isolate non-polar basic drugs from different biological samples, although EME demonstrated higher recovery rates for liver tissue and blood.

Abstract
We hereby present a fast, high-throughput, and clinical LC-MS/MS assay for the simultaneous analysis of barbiturates in human urine. It is deployed as a quantitative assay for phenobarbital, butalbital, pentobarbital/amobarbital, and secobarbital, as well as for confirmations following positive immunoassay drug screens in patient urine. Briefly, urine specimens are processed via dilute and shoot, i.e., by mixing the sample with 20 times volume of internal standard reagent and injecting 50 μL of that mixture into the analytical instrument. Chromatographic separation is performed using a reversed-phase C18 column in a mobile-phase system doped with <1 mM ammonium fluoride. Mass spectrometric detection occurs via negative-mode electrospray ionization multiple reaction monitoring in the TSQ Quantiva triple-quadrupole instrument. All the analytes in the mixture are detected and quantified simultaneously with respect to internal calibration in the range 20-2500 ng/mL. However, the assay cannot distinguish pentobarbital from amobarbital, which are isobaric analytes. Nonetheless, the assay is sensitive, robust, and amenable to harmonization with other assays that employ barbiturate cutoffs in the range of 20-150 ng/mL.

Abstract
This study developed a facile, highly sensitive technique for extracting and quantifying barbiturates in serum samples. This method combined ultrasound and surfactant-assisted dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction with poly(ethylene oxide)-mediated stacking in capillary electrophoresis. Factors influencing the extraction and stacking performance, such as the type and volume of extraction solvents, the type and concentration of surfactant, extraction time, salt additives, sample matrix, solution pH, and composition of the background electrolyte, were carefully studied and optimized to achieve the optimal detection sensitivity. Under the optimized extraction (injecting 140 μL C2 H4 Cl2 into 1 mL of sample with pH 4 (5 mM sodium phosphate containing 0.05 mM Tween 20 and sonication for 1 min) and separation conditions (150 mM tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane-borate with pH 8.5 containing 0.5% (m/v) poly(ethylene oxide)), the limits of detection (signal-to-noise ratio = 3) of five barbiturates ranged from 0.20 to 0.33 ng/mL, and the calculated sensitivity improvement ranged from 868- to 1700-fold. The experimental results revealed excellent linearity (R2 > 0.99), with relative standard deviations of 2.1%-3.4% for the migration time and 4.3%-5.7% for the peak area. The recoveries of the spiked serum samples were 97.1% -110.3%. Our proposed approach offers a rapid and practical method for quantifying barbiturates in biological fluids.

New approach for barbiturates, phenytoin, methyprylon and glutethimide determination and fragmentation (UHPLC-MS/MS). J Pharm Biomed Anal 2023; 228:115318.

Abstract
Barbiturates which are old pharmaceutical drugs are still widely used in medical treatment of epilepsy and for general anesthesia. To date, more than 2500 different barbituric acid analogs have been synthesized, and 50 of them were introduced into medical use over the last century. Due to their highly addictive properties, pharmaceuticals containing barbiturates are under strict control in many countries. However, by considering the worldwide problem with new psychoactive substances (NPS) the introduction of new designer barbiturate analogs into the dark market might serve a serious public health problem in the near future. For this reason there is an increasing need for application methods for barbiturates monitoring in biological samples. The UHPLC-QqQ-MS/MS method for determination of 15 barbiturates, phenytoin, methyprylon and glutethimide was developed and fully validated. The biological sample volume was reduced to only 50 µL. A simple LLE (pH 3 with ethyl acetate) was successfully applied. The lower LOQ was 10 ng/mL. The method enables differentiation of structural isomers: hexobarbital and cyclobarbital; as well as amobarbital and pentobarbital. Chromatographic separation was achieved with the use of the alkaline mobile phase (pH 9) and Acquity UPLC BEH C18 column. Furthermore, the novel fragmentation mechanism of barbiturates was proposed, which may have a great impact in identification of novel barbiturates analogs introduced to illegal marketplaces. The presented technique has a great potential to be applied in forensic, clinical and veterinary toxicological laboratories, as was evidenced by the positive results of international proficiency tests.

Abstract
Liquid phase microextraction (LPME) and electromembrane microextraction (EME) can be considered as two of the most popular techniques in sample treatment today. Both techniques can be configurated as membrane-assisted techniques to carry out the extraction. These supports provide the required geometry and stability on the contact surface between two phases (donor and acceptor) and improve the reproducibility of sample treatment techniques. These solid support pore space, once is filled with organic solvents, act as a selective barrier acting as a supported liquid membrane (SLM). The SLM nature is a fundamental parameter, and its selection is critical to carry out successful extractions. There are numerous SLMs that have been successfully employed in a wide variety of application fields. The latter is due to the specificity of the selected organic solvents, which allows the extraction of compounds of a very different nature. In the last decade, solid supports and SLM have evolved towards "green" and environmentally friendly materials and solvents. In this review, solid supports implemented in LPME and EME will be discussed and summarized, as well as their applications. Moreover, the advances and modifications of the solid supports and the SLMs to improve the extraction efficiencies, recoveries and enrichment factors are discussed. Hollow fiber and flat membranes, including microfluidic systems, will be considered depending on the technique, configuration, or device used.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aims to develop and validate a rapid, simple, and efficient bioanalytical method for the simultaneous quantification of phenobarbital and barbital in human whole blood using liquid-liquid extraction combined with direct analysis in real time (DART) and high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS). METHOD Phenobarbital-d5 and aprobarbital were selected as internal standards (ISs) of phenobarbital and barbital, respectively. A mixed solvent of o-xylene and ethyl acetate at a ratio of 1:6 was used to extract analytes of interest and ISs from 100 μL of human whole blood samples. Phenobarbital and barbital were detected by DART-HRMS. The proposed method has been validated in accordance with United States Food and Drug Administration Guidelines for Bioanalytical Method Validation in terms of selectivity, linearity, accuracy, precision, matrix effect, recovery, stability, and dilution integrity. RESULTS The lower limits of quantification (LLOQs) of phenobarbital and barbital were both 10 ng/mL. The linearities were in the range of 10-1000 ng/mL (R2 ≥ 0.99). The mean recovery values of phenobarbital and barbital were 99.7% and 88.1%, respectively. The interday and intraday precision values were less than 10.4%, and the interday and intraday accuracy values ranged from 87.6 to 106.7%. Furthermore, the validated method was applied to four cases of phenobarbital poisoning at the Shanghai Institute of Forensic Science. CONCLUSION The developed and fully validated method enabled the simultaneous quantification of phenobarbital and barbital in human whole blood and was successfully applied to authentic cases.

Successive liquid-phase microextraction of acidic and basic analytes. Anal Chim Acta 2022; 1192:339335.

Abstract
Practical biological and environmental samples always contain both acidic and basic substances, and the samples are always precious. Thus, separation of analytes with different nature from the same sample was of great significance. Successive liquid phase microextraction (sLPME) of acidic and basic analytes under optimal extraction conditions was therefore proposed for the first time. The concept of sLPME was proved by using three acidic analytes (naproxen, flurbiprofen and diclofenac) and three basic analytes (haloperidol, fluoxetine and sertraline) as model analytes, and using polypropylene glycol with an average molecular weight of 4000 (PPG4000) as SLM. The recoveries of all target analytes by sLPME were similar to that by individual LPME due to good affinity of PPG4000 to both acidic and basic analytes. Under optimal extraction conditions, the recoveries for all analytes by sLPME from urine samples were in the range of 62%-95%. Moreover, combined with LC-MS/MS, such sLPME approach was also evaluated with urine samples. The matrix effect of sLPME-LC-MS/MS at different levels for all analytes ranged from -14.1%-13.2%. The linear ranges with R2 > 0.996 were 5-1000 ng mL-1 for basic analytes, and 20-1000 ng mL-1 for acidic analytes except diclofenac (1-1000 ng mL-1). The repeatability and accuracy at four levels were in the range of 3%-10% and 86%-120%, respectively. The limit of detection (LOD, S/N = 3) and limit of quantification (LOQ, S/N = 10) were found to be 0.07-0.49 ng mL-1 and 0.25-1.63 ng mL-1, respectively. Finally, the strategy for constructing a sLPME system was further confirmed with urine, plasma and saliva using another two versatile SLM solvents possessing high affinity to both acidic and basic analytes. Successive LPME enabled separation of acidic and basic analytes from the same sample under optimum extraction conditions for all target analytes. Thus, we believe that the sLPME system will become a potent platform for forensic toxicology analysis, food science, environmental analysis and epidemiology study.

Abstract
This study reports the construction of a novel SPME fiber based on chitosan and glutaraldehyde as coating material composites combined with high-performance liquid chromatography with an ultraviolet detector (HPLC-UV) for extraction and detection of phenobarbital. In this technique, the chitosan biopolymer, as a new coating of SPME fiber, was produced on the stainless-steel wire, using glutaraldehyde and phenobarbital as cross-linker and template, respectively. For comparison, a nonimprinted polymer was created using the same procedure to evaluate fiber selectivity (but without the addition of phenobarbital). The SPME-MIP fiber coating was characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, and thermal gravimetric analysis. The efficiency of fiber was then improved by adjusting the impact of numerous factors such as pH, extraction time, desorption time, desorption solvent, and stirring rate. The results showed that the proposed fiber has a linear range of 0.01-4 μg·mL-1, and detection limit of 7.5 ng·mL-1. The average recoveries in the four concentration levels for the spiked river and well water samples were 95.7 and 95.3%, with relative standard deviations of 3.8 and 5.9% for single fiber and between fibers, respectively.

Abstract
Fluorescent aptamer beacons (FABs) are a major category of biosensors widely used in environmental analysis. However, due to their low compatibility, it is difficult to use the common FABs for biological samples. To overcome this challenge, construction of FABs with complex structures to adapt the nature of biological samples is currently in progress in this field. Unlike previous works, we moved our range of vision from the FAB itself to the biological sample. Inspired by this idea, in this work, flat membrane-based liquid-phase microextraction (FM-LPME) with sufficient sample cleanup and preconcentration capacities was integrated with FABs. With the merits of both FM-LPME and FABs, the integrated LPME-FAB system displayed a clear synergistic enhancement for target analysis. Specifically, LPME in the LPME-FAB system provided purified and enriched Hg2+ for the FAB recognition, while the FAB recognition event promoted the extraction efficiency of LPME. Due to superior performances, the LPME-FAB system achieved highly sensitive analysis of Hg2+ in urine samples with a detection limit of 27 nM and accuracies in the range of 98-113%. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that an integrated LPME-FAB system was constructed for target analysis in biological samples. We believe that this study will provide a new insight into the next generation of biosensors, where the integration of sample preparation with detection probes is as important as the design of complex probes in the field of bioanalysis.

Abstract
Interactions between phospholipid membranes and selected drugs affecting the central nervous system (CNS) were investigated. Small, unilamellar liposomes were used as biomimetic cell membrane models. Microelectrophoretic experiments on two-component liposomes were performed using the electrophoretic light scattering technique (ELS). The effect of both positively (perphenazine, PF) and negatively (barbituric acid, BA) charged drugs on zwitterionic L-α-phosphatidylcholine (PC) membranes were analyzed. Experimental membrane surface charge density (δ) data were determined as a function of pH. Quantitative descriptions of the adsorption equilibria formed due to the binding of solution ions to analyzed two-component membranes are presented. Binding constants of the solution ions with perphenazine and barbituric acid-modified membranes were determined. The results of our research show that both charged drugs change surface charge density values of phosphatidylcholine membranes. It can be concluded that perphenazine and barbituric acid are located near the membrane surface, interacting electrostatically with phosphatidylcholine polar heads.

Hollow-fiber liquid-phase microextraction (HF-LPME) and electromembrane extraction (EME) are miniaturized extraction techniques, and have been coupled with various analytical instruments for trace analysis of heavy metals, drugs and other organic compounds, in recent years. HF-LPME and EME provide high selectivity, efficient sample cleanup and enrichment, and reduce the consumption of organic solvents to a few micro-liters per sample. HF-LPME and EME are compatible with different analytical instruments for chromatography, electrophoresis, atomic spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and electrochemical detection. HF-LPME and EME have gained significant popularity during the recent years. This review focuses on hollow fiber based techniques (especially HF-LPME and EME) of heavy metals and pharmaceuticals (published 2017 to May 2019), and their combinations with atomic spectroscopy, UV-VIS spectrophotometry, high performance liquid chromatography, gas chromatography, capillary electrophoresis, and voltammetry.
