Abstract One of the major problems with the formulation of herbal medicines is the quality control of plant material to ensure its efficacy and safety. Quality control of medicinal plants requires analysis of many bioactive compounds present in the plant. C-alkylated flavonoids are an important bioactive subclass of flavonoids. A simple, rapid, sensitive and selective method is presented here for the quantification of bioactive C-alkylated flavonoids. This is the first quantitative method for analysis of C-alkylated flavonoids based on the multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) approach so far. This study focuses on method development for quantification of bioactive C-alkylated flavonoids. Quantification of a total of five C-alkylated flavonoids was done employing the MRM approach on an HPLC-QqQ-MS instrument. LODs and LOQs for quantified flavonoids were in the range of 0.41–1.32 and 1.23–3.96 ng/mL, respectively. Linear calibration curves between 25 and 1500 ng/mL were obtained with the regression coefficients of ≥0.996. Accuracy (% bias) and precision (% RSD) of the analyses were found to be less than 5%. Developed HPLC-ESI-MS/MS can be employed as a quality control method of plant raw materials.

Abstract This paper describes a method that includes an optimized extraction process and identification and quantification of two anticancer compounds (garcinol and isogarcinol) by LC/electrospray ionization (ESI)-MS/MS in the multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode. The study aimed to develop a fast, accurate, and sensitive method for the quantification of garcinol and isogarcinol in different extracts of Garcinia indica fruits. The compounds were detected using LC/ESI-MS/MS in the positive-ion mode and quantified in the MRM mode using a transition mass of m/z 603.3/411 taken as the quantifier and 603.3/343.2 as the qualifier for garcinol and isogarcinol. Five point calibration curves were linear in the range of 2 to 10 ng/mL for garcinol and 0.5 to 6 ng/mL for isogarcinol, with a correlation coefficient of ≥0.990 for both. LOQ for garcinol and isogarcinol was 0.06 and 0.05 ng/mL, respectively, while LOD was 0.021 and 0.017 ng/mL respectively. Our work demonstrated optimization of extraction procedure, fast and highly sensitive quantification (pg level LOQ), and validation of the developed method for the investigated compounds in fruit extracts of G. indica.

Background: A simple quantification technique by liquid chromatography–electrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-MS/MS) is required for regorafenib in biological matrices with bioavailability studies in healthy rabbits, when compared with reported techniques. Objective: The main aim of the research work is to develop a validated LC-ESI-MS/MS technique for the quantification of regorafenib and application to bioavailability studies in healthy rabbits. Methods: Chromatographic separation was achieved with hypersil-C18 analytical column (50mm×4.6 mm, 4µm) and a mobile phase composition of acetonitrile and 5mM ammonium acetate in the proportion of 70:30. The mobile phase was infused into the column with high pressure to get 0.7 ml/min flow rate. The total retention time of the analyte is promising when compared with the existed methods for regorafenib. Quantitation was processed by monitoring transitions of m/z -483.0/262.0 and 450.0/260.0 for regorafenib and internal standard respectively in multiple reaction monitoring. Results: The linearity equation and correlation coefficient (R2) findings were y =0.9948x+2.6624 and 0.998 respectively. The intra and inter-day precision of the developed technique was found between 1.00 – 8.50% for the QC-samples (2, 4, 240 and 480ng/ml). From bioavailability study, the drug was shown Tmax of 3.688 ± 0.754; average AUC0͢α and AUC0͢t was 6476.81 ± 259.59 and 6213.845 ± 257.892 and Cmax was found to be 676.91 ± 22.045 in healthy rabbits. Conclusion: The developed technique was validated and successfully applied in the pharmacokinetic study of drug (40 mg tablet) administered through oral route in healthy rabbits.
