LC–MS Determination of p-(1-Dimethylamino ethylimino)aniline: a Metabolite of Tribendimidine in Human Plasma
2008
A sensitive and selective liquid chromatography–mass spectrometric method was developed and validated for the determination of p-(1-dimethylamino ethylimino)aniline (dADT), a metabolite of tribendimidine, in human plasma. The analyte was separated on a Hypersil C18 column (250 × 4.6 mm ID, 5 μm) by isocratic elution with 10 mM ammonium acetate (containing 0.1% triethylamine)-acetonitrile (20:80, v/v) at a flow rate of 1.0 mL min−1 and measured by electrospray ionization source in positive selective ion monitoring mode at m/z 178. The weighted (1/x 2) calibration curve was linear within a concentration range of 0.5–1,000 ng mL−1 and displayed a correlation coefficient (r) of 0.9996. The lower limit of quantification was determined to be at 0.5 ng mL−1. The inter and intra-day precisions (%RSD) were less than 8% and the extraction recoveries ranged from 84.21 to 85.20%. The developed method was successfully applied to the determination of dADT in human plasma as part of a clinical pharmacokinetic study.
