Abstract:
Objective To establish a high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) method for simultaneous determination of sodium valproate and vancomycin in human serum. Methods Valproic acid-d6 and kanamycin B were used as the internal standard of sodium valproate and vancomycin, the serum samples were treated by acetonitrile precipitation protein method. The mobile phase was 0.1% formic acid aqueous solution-acetonitrile for gradient elution. The flow rate was 0.5 ml/min, with column temperature at 25 ℃. The sample volume was 4 μl and total analysis time was 12 min. The positive and negative ion mode was monitored by electrospray ion source and the multiple reaction monitoring mode was used for quantitative analysis. The specificity, standard curve, lower limit of quantification, precision, recovery, matrix effect, and stability of the method were examined. Results Sodium valproate and vancomycin had good linear relationships in the range of 1 - 200 μg/ml and 0.5 - 100 μg/ml, respectively. The quantitative lower limits were 1 μg/ml and 0.5 μg/ml, respectively. The extraction recoveries were above 70%. The inter- and intra-batch precision RSD values were less than 10%. The stability was good and there was no obvious matrix effect. Conclusion This method is simple, quick, sensitive, specific and accurate, which could be used to simultaneously determine the concentration of sodium valproate and vancomycin in human serum.
