Abstract:
Objective To establish a sensitive,rapid and robust high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) method for the analysis of sufentanil in human plasma.Methods Sufentanil in human plasma was extracted by tert-butyl methyl ether and analyzed by HPLC-MS/MS with fentanyl as the internal standard (IS).Multiple reactions monitoring was used,transitions and collision energies were as follows:sufentanil m/z 387.2→m/z 238.2(27 V),fentanyl m/z 337.2→m/z 158.2 (37 V) in positive electrospray ionization mode.The chromatographic separation was performed on Waters Atlantis Hilic Silica column (2.1 mm ×-50 mm,5 μm),with a flow rate at 0.3 mL · min-1.A gradient elution was applied,mobile phase was 10 mmol · L-1 ammonium formate grid acetonitrile,both containing 0.1% formic acid.Results The calibration curve was y =9.28 × 10-4x + 1.86 × 10-3 (r =0.997 4),over the concentration range of 2-500 pg · mL-1 was linear,and the lower limit of qualification (LLOQ) was 2 pg · mL-1.The intra-day and inter-day precisions were all less than 10%.Conclusion The assay was successfully applied to the analysis of sufentanil in patients which can provide reliable results.
