In this study, a sensitive and reliable HPLC-MS/MS method was established to quantify tamarixetin in rat plasma. This method was then applied to research on the pharmacokinetic and bioavailability of tamarixetin after intravenous and oral administration in vivo. The study was performed on CORTECS C18 column (4.6 mm × 150 mm, 2.7 μm) using mobile phase composed of methanol-water-formic acid (85 : 15 : 0.1, v/v) at a flow rate of 0.3 mL/min by a tandem mass system with an electrospray ionization (ESI) source in the negative multiple-reaction monitoring (MRM) mode. The calibration curves showed good linearity in the range of 5–4000 ng/mL. The intra- and interday precision of tamarixetin was less than 8.7% and 4.8%, respectively, and accuracy was within ±9.5%. Extraction recovery (91.4–100.0%) and matrix effect (99.4–107.4%) met the guidelines published by regulatory authorities. The oral bioavailability of tamarixetin was 20.3 ± 12.4%.

A sensitive and simple liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method was developed and validated to simultaneously determine the toxic and other active components including isovanillin, scopoletin, periplocin, periplogenin, and periplocymarin after oral administration of cortex periplocae extract to rats. Plasma samples were prepared by protein precipitation with methanol. All compounds were separated on a C18 column with gradient elution using acetonitrile and formic acid aqueous solution (0.1%, v/v) as the mobile phase at a flow rate of 0.3 mL/min. The detection of all compounds was accomplished by multiple-reaction monitoring (MRM) in the positive electrospray ionization mode. The LC-MS/MS method exhibited good linearity for five analytes. The lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) was 0.48 ng/mL for scopoletin, periplogenin, and periplocymarin; 2.4 ng/mL for isovanillin and periplocin. The extraction recoveries of all compounds were more than 90% and the RSDs were below 10%. It was found that the absorption of scopoletin and periplocin was rapid in vivo after oral administration of cortex periplocae extract. Furthermore, periplocymarin possessed abundant plasma exposure. The results demonstrated that the validated method was efficiently applied for the pharmacokinetic studies of isovanillin, scopoletin, periplocin, periplogenin, and periplocymarin after oral administration of cortex periplocae extract.

AbstractA rapid, sensitive and convenient method based on ultra-high performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS) was developed and validated for the simultaneous quantification of calycosin-7-O-β-d-glucoside (CCSG), ononin, calycosin, (6aR,11aR)-9,10-dimethoxypterocarpan-3-O-β-d-glucopyanoside (DPPG), and 7,2′-dihydroxy-3′,4′-dimethoxyisoflavan-7-O-β-d-glucopyanoside (DIFG) in rat plasma after oral administration of the methanol extraction from Radix Astragali. Theophylline played the role of internal standard (IS). Preparation of plasma samples by liquid-liquid extraction method with ethyl acetate after precipitation of protein with methanol. The analytes were detected with a triple quadrupole tandem mass spectrometery (MS) in multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode and a positive ion electrospray ionization (ESI). The method was validated with the concentration ranges of 1.96–62.69 ng/mL for CCSG, 1.70–54.5 ng/mL for ononin, 1.85–59.06 ng/mL for calycosin, 2.14–137.24 ng/mL for DPPG and1.96–125.25 ng/mL for DIFG, respectively. The method had the lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) with 0.49, 0.21, 0.92, 1.07, and 0.98 ng/mL for CCSG, ononin, calycosin, DPPG and DIFG respectively, and the precision less than 10%. The RSD of the accuracy was in the range of −4.35–8.91%. The results may be helpful to provide more accurate references to clinical application of this herb.

Background: Danyikangtai powder, a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) formula, shows promise to become a novel drug candidate for the simultaneous treatment of chronic cholecystitis and chronic pancreatitis. However, the pharmacokinetic behavior of Danyikangtai powder remains unclear. Objective: We investigated the comparative pharmacokinetics of four flavonoids in rats after oral administration of Danyikangtai powder and three compatibilites. Materials and methods: The comparative pharmacokinetics was studied by ultra performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC–MS/MS). Chromatographic separation was performed on an Universil XB-C18 column with a gradient mobile phase containing 0.1% (v/v) aqueous formic acid and acetonitrile. All analytes and internal standard were quantitated in the multiple reaction monitoring mode with a positive electrospray ionization interface. Results and discussion: Danyikangtai powder and Scutellariae radix have similar pharmacokinetic behaviors in rats after oral administration. However, the elimination of four flavonoids in rats after oral administration of Danyikangtai powder was accelerated, which was possibly related to the reduction of the potential hepatotoxicity of Scutellariae radix. The varying degrees of change in pharmacokinetic parameters after oral administration of different herb combinations suggested that herb–herb interactions occurred in vivo. Conclusions: This study will be helpful to reveal the safety, rational and mechanism of Danyikangtai powder formula compatibility, thereby providing pre-clinical research data for its new drug development and guidance for its rational clinical application.

Characterization and determination of metabolites to monitor metabolic pathways play a paramount role in evaluating the efficacy and safety of medicines. However, the separation and quantification of metabolites are rather difficult due to their limited contents in vivo, especially in the case of Chinese medicine, due to its complexity. In this study, an effective and convenient method was developed to simultaneously quantify bufalin and its nine metabolites (semi-quantitation) in rat plasma after an oral administration of 10 mg/kg to rats. The prototype and metabolites that were identified were subsequently quantified using positive electrospray ionization in multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode with transitions of m/z 387.4→369.6 and 387.4→351.3 for bufalin, m/z 513.7→145.3 for IS, and 387.4→369.6, 419.2→365.2, and 403.2→349.2 for the main metabolites (3-epi-bufalin, dihydroxylated bufalin, and hydroxylated bufalin, respectively). The method was validated over the calibration curve range of 1.00–100 ng/mL with a limit of quantitation (LOQ) of 1 ng/mL for bufalin. No obvious matrix effect was observed, and the intra- and inter-day precisions, as well as accuracy, were all within the acceptable criteria in this method. Then, this method was successfully applied in metabolic profiling and a pharmacokinetic study of bufalin after an oral administration of 10 mg/kg to rats. The method of simultaneous determination of bufalin and its nine metabolites in rat plasma could be useful for pharmacokinetic–pharmacodynamic relationship research of bufalin, providing experimental evidence for explaining the occurrence of some adverse effects of Venenum Bufonis and its related preparations.

A simple and sensitive ultra-performance liquid chromatography with Tandem Mass Spectrometric detection (UPLC-MS/MS) method was developed and validated for the simultaneous quantitation of two food colouring matters, Curcumin (CUR) and Riboflavin (RIB). Chromatographic separation was done on Hypersil gold 50×2.1 mm (1.9 μm) column, with gradient programing of mobile phase starting with aqueous 0.1% formic acid and increasing the percentage of 0.1% formic acid in acetonitrile. The utilization of multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) improved the selectivity of detection and decreased the matrix effect.  The method was linear in the range of 5-500 ng/mL for CUR and RIB. Intra- and inter-day reproducibility were within the accepted criteria. The method was successfully applied for the determination the laboratory prepared mixtures of the two selected colouring matters. The use of mass spectrometry enhanced the selectivity and sensitivity of detection which allows the robust use of the method in routine quality control tests of the two colouring matters (CUR and RIB).
