The routine analysis of low molecular weight analytes by mass spectrometry is often complicated by the lability of the analyte’s functional groups and/or the lack of moieties that can be easily charged. If a molecule is too labile this precludes analysis by techniques such as electron ionisation or chemical ionisation as the analyte will undergo thermal decomposition prior to ionisation as well as spontaneous fragmentation during the ionisation process. If the analyte has a low propensity to form ions in electrospray ionisation (i.e., lacks acidic or basic sites) then often no analyte related ions are observed. In this paper, the robustness and versatility of the established method of atmospheric pressure chemical ionisation is demonstrated for the analysis of low molecular weight analytes. The utility of the technique is demonstrated through the analysis of 30 reference standards of varying functionality, and further by the analysis of 75 synthetic samples which were problematic when analysed by electron or electrospray ionisation. The resulting spectra are dominated by intact molecular species ([M+H]+ and M+ in positive ion mode and [M − H]− and [M + Cl]− in negative ion mode) along with logical neutral losses reminiscent of what you might expect from the analyte’s structure (losses of H2O from alcohols or CO from aldehydes etc). This paper presents atmospheric pressure chemical ionisation as an essential tool for broadening the chemical space of successful analyses for any routine mass spectrometry service laboratory of facility.

A very strong responsive and straight forward the LC-MS / MS assay was developed to and witnessed for that gradation in Nadolol and Bendroflumethiazide in rat plasma. The chromatographic conditions involve isocratic mode using Waters symmetry C18 (150x4.6 mm, 3.5 microns) column. A 0.1 per cent Smartphone process OPA (orthophosphoric Acid) Acetonitrile and in 60:40 is employed, and therefore the detection was administered during +ve mode of electrospray ionisation by using MS. The valid method had validated in the linear range of 8-160 ng/ml Nadolol and 1-20 ng/ml bendroflumethiazide, the precise values considered to be intraday and interday within the acceptable limit. Here these drugs are extracted from the rat plasma by using the liquid-liquid extraction. And these drugs are found stable. Through freeze Thaw, sampler app, vehicle sampler and top of the bench for the future studies. Form of liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry and checked in compliance with guidelines for quantification of food and drug administration Nadolol and Bendroflumethiazide plasma in rats using D6-Nadolol and D6-Bendroflumethiazide as internal standards utilising LC-MS incorporated with quadrupole spectrometer by using electrospray ionisation technique. The target of this analysis is to be done work out the appropriateness of this approach to Nadolol and Bendroflumethiazide Applying Nadolol and bendroflumethiazide and their internal requirements at various quantification stages and retaining different parameters such as instrument durability, precision and accuracy, sample preparation techniques, instrument synchronisation, recovery and matrix effect.
