Sample pre-treatment involved solid phase extraction on Waters Oasis HLB cartridges using 100 μL of plasma, followed by liquid chromatography on Hypersil Gold C_(18)(50 mm×3.0 mm, 5 μm) column. The analytes were eluted within 2.0 min using acetonitrile-5.0 m M ammonium formate, p H 4.5(85:15, v/v) as the mobile phase. The analytes and ISs were analyzed in the negative ionization mode and quantified using multiple reaction monitoring. The method showed excellent linearity over the concentration range of 0.50–250.0 ng/m L for both the analytes. The intra-batch and inter-batch precision(% CV) was ≤5.26% and their extraction recoveries were in the range of 96.6%–103.1%. Matrix effect evaluated in terms of IS-normalized matrix factors ranged from 0.97 to 1.03 for both the analytes. The validated method was successfully applied to determine the plasma concentration of the drugs using 10 mg lisinopril and 12.5 mg hydrochlorothiazide fixed dose formulation in 18 healthy Indian volunteers.展开更多
A sensitive and selective method has been proposed for the simultaneous determination of amlodipine(AML),valsartan(VAL) and hydrochlorothiazide(HCTZ) in human plasma by liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry...A sensitive and selective method has been proposed for the simultaneous determination of amlodipine(AML),valsartan(VAL) and hydrochlorothiazide(HCTZ) in human plasma by liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry(LC–MS/MS). The analytes and their deuterated analogs were quantitatively extracted from100 μL human plasma by solid phase extraction on Oasis HLB cartridges. The chromatographic separation of the analytes was achieved on a Chromolith RP18 e(100 mm × 4.6 mm) analytical column within 2.5 min. The resolution factor between AML and VAL, AML and HCTZ, and VAL and HCTZ was 2.9, 1.5 and 1.4, respectively,under isocratic conditions. The method was validated over a dynamic concentration range of 0.02–20.0 ng/m L for AML, 5.00–10,000 ng/m L for VAL and 0.20–200 ng/m L for HCTZ. Ion-suppression/enhancement effects were investigated by post-column infusion technique. The mean IS-normalized matrix factors for AML, VAL and HCTZ were 0.992, 0.994 and 0.998, respectively. The intra-batch and inter-batch precision(% CV) across quality control levels was ≤ 5.56% and the recovery was in the range of 93.4%–99.6% for all the analytes. The method was successfully applied to a bioequivalence study of 5 mg AML + 160 mg VAL + 12.5 mg HCTZ tablet formulation(test and reference) in 18 healthy Indian males under fasting. The mean log-transformed ratios of C max, AUC0–120 h and AUC0-inf and their 90% CIs were within 90.2%–102.1%. The assay reproducibility was demonstrated by reanalysis of 90 incurred samples.展开更多

Plasma samples with lercanidipine-d3 as an internal standard (IS) were prepared by solid phase extraction on Phenomenex Strata-X cartridges using 100 μL of human plasma. Chromatographic analysis was performed on UPLC BEH C18 (50 mm × 2.1 mm, 1.7 μm) column under isocratic conditions. Linear calibration curves were obtained over a wide dynamic concentration range of 0.010-20.0 ng/mL. Matrix effect was assessed by post-column infusion, post-extraction spiking and standard-line slope methods. The mean extraction recovery was 〉 94% for the analyte and IS. Inter-batch and intra-hatch precision (% CV) across five quality controls was 〈 5.8%. Bioequivalence study was performed with 36 healthy sub- jects after oral administration of 10 mg of lercanidipine and the assay reproducibility was evaluated by reanalysis of 133 incurred samples.展开更多

Sample clean-up with 250 μL of plasma was done on Phenomenex Strata^(?)-X extraction cartridges using their labeled internal standards(AMI-15 N3 and HCTZ-13 C,d2). Chromatography was performed on Hypersil Gold C18(50 mm×3.0 mm, 5 μm) column using acetonitrile with 4.0 m M ammonium formate(p H 4.0, adjusted with 0.1% formic acid)(80:20, v/v) as the mobile phase. Detection was carried out on a triple quadrupole API 5500 mass spectrometer utilizing an electrospray ionization interface and operating in the positive ionization mode for AMI and negative ionization mode for HCTZ. Multiple reaction monitoring was used following the transitions at m/z 230.6/116.0, m/z233.6/116.0, m/z 296.0/204.9 and m/z 299.0/205.9 for AMI, AMI-15 N3, HCTZ and HCTZ-13 C,d2,respectively. Calibration curves were linear(r2≥0.9997) over the concentration range of 0.050–50.0 and0.50–500 ng/m L for AMI and HCTZ, respectively, with acceptable accuracy and precision. The signal-to-noise ratio at the limit of quantitation was ≥14 for both the analytes. The mean recovery of AMI and HCTZ from plasma was 89.0% and 98.7%, respectively. The IS-normalized matrix factors determined for matrix effect ranged from 0.971 to 1.024 for both the analytes. The validated LC–MS/MS method was successfully applied to a bioequivalence study using 5 mg AMI and 50 mg HCTZ fixed dose tablet formulation in 18 healthy Indian volunteers with good reproducibility.展开更多
