Rapid screening and multi-toxin profile confirmation of tetrodotoxins and analogues in human body fluids derived from a puffer fish poisoning incident in New Caledonia.

Food and chemical toxicology : an international journal published for the British Industrial Biological Research Association
In August 2014, a puffer fish poisoning incidence resulting in one fatality was reported in New Caledonia. Although tetrodotoxin (TTX) intoxication was established from the patients' signs and symptoms, the determination of TTX in the patient's urine...

Determination of IMM-H004 and its active glucuronide metabolite in rat plasma and Ringer's solution by ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry.

Journal of chromatography. B, Analytical technologies in the biomedical and life sciences
IMM-H004 is a novel neuroprotective agent and its glucuronide metabolite IMM-H004G has similar protective effects against cerebral ischemic injury in vivo and in vitro. A specific and sensitive ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spec...

Use of phenyl/tetrazolyl-functionalized magnetic microspheres and stable isotope labeled internal standards for significant reduction of matrix effect in determination of nine fluoroquinolones by liquid chromatography-quadrupole linear ion trap mass spectrometry.

Analytical and bioanalytical chemistry
In this study, the strategy of unique adsorbent combined with isotope labeled internal standards was used to significantly reduce the matrix effect for the enrichment and analysis of nine fluoroquinolones in a complex sample by liquid chromatography ...

Analysis of ibuprofen and its main metabolites in roots, shoots, and seeds of cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L. Walp) using liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry: uptake, metabolism, and translocation.

Analytical and bioanalytical chemistry
A liquid chromatography quadruple time-of-flight mass spectrometry (LC-QqTOF-MS/MS) method was developed for simultaneous quantitative analysis of ibuprofen (IBU), 1- and 2-hydroxyibuprofen (1-OH IBU and 2-OH IBU), and carboxyibuprofen (CBX IBU) whil...

Plant-Based Beverages as Good Sources of Free and Glycosidic Plant Sterols.

Nutrients
To address the ever-growing group of health-conscious consumers, more and more nutritional and health claims are being used on food products. Nevertheless, only very few food constituents, including plant sterols, have been appointed an approved heal...

A simple LC-MS/MS method for determination of deferasirox in human plasma: Troubleshooting of interference from ferric ion in method development and its application.

Journal of pharmaceutical and biomedical analysis
As an orally active iron chelator, deferasirox forms its ion complexes in the prepared plasma samples and LC-MS mobile phase where ferric ion exists, and then comparing with the nominal concentration level, a lower detected concentration level of def...

The distribution and redistribution of fentanyl & norfentanyl in post mortem samples.

Forensic science international
This article compares 249 post mortem case reports that were positive for fentanyl/norfentanyl. All the cases were submitted to, and analyzed by, the toxicology department of the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. This s...

Quantification and pharmacokinetics of alpinetin in rat plasma by UHPLC-MS/MS using protein precipitation coupled with dilution approach to eliminate matrix effects.

Journal of pharmaceutical and biomedical analysis
Alpinetin, a bioactive flavonoid, has attracted great attention due to its diverse therapeutic effects, namely anti-oxidant, anti-tumor and anti-inflammatory effects with low systemic toxicity. Various determination methods have been developed in qua...

Ultra-sensitive LC-MS/MS method for the quantification of gemcitabine and its metabolite 2',2'-difluorodeoxyuridine in human plasma for a microdose clinical trial.

Journal of pharmaceutical and biomedical analysis
In microdose clinical trials a maximum of 100 μg of drug substance is administered to participants, in order to determine the pharmacokinetic properties of the agents. Measuring low plasma concentrations after administration of a microdose is challen...

Chemical characterization, antioxidant, genotoxic and in vitro cytotoxic activity assessment of Juniperus communis var. saxatilis.

Food and chemical toxicology : an international journal published for the British Industrial Biological Research Association
Chemical composition and antioxidative, genotoxic and cytotoxic potential of essential oil (EO) and post-distillation waste (PDW) of Serbian Juniperus communis L. var. saxatilis Pall. was studied in human lung carcinoma (A549) and normal lung fibrobl...
