Quantification of Serum Sulfamethoxazole and Trimethoprim by Ultra-fast Solid-Phase Extraction-Tandem Mass Spectrometry.

Abstract：

BACKGROUND:The combination of trimethoprim (TMP) and sulfamethoxazole (SMX) is used to treat a number of bacterial infections. TMP/SMX concentrations in serum are conventionally monitored using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) or liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry. These methods require laborious manual extraction techniques and relatively long sample analysis times, necessitating the development of a simple, high-throughput method. A simple, high-throughput method to measure TMP/SMX using ultra-fast solid-phase extraction (SPE)-tandem mass spectrometry has been developed. METHODS:Calibration standards, quality control materials, and patient samples were precipitated with acetonitrile containing isotopically labeled internal standards. Samples were vortexed, centrifuged for 5 minutes at 2053g, and the resulting supernatant was diluted in aqueous mobile phase and injected onto the C18 SPE cartridge. MS/MS analysis was performed by electrospray ionization in positive ion mode at a rate of <20 seconds per sample. A 5-point linear 1/x calibration curve was used to calculate sample concentrations. RESULTS:The intra-assay precision coefficients of variation were <6% and <7% for SMX and TMP, respectively, and <10% for both interassay precision coefficients of variation. Comparison studies using 50 patient and spiked serum samples showed r values of 0.9890 and 0.9853 and y-intercept values of -1.918 and -1.357, respectively compared with the HPLC reference method. All data points were <±15% of the mean. Linearity [r = 0.9952 (SMX) and 0.9954 (TMP)] was established from 12 to 400 mcg/mL with a detection limit of 0.47 mcg/mL, and 1.2-40 mcg/mL with a detection limit of 0.06 mcg/mL, for SMX and TMP, respectively. For either drug, no significant carryover was observed after samples at the upper limit of quantification. No interference was observed from any of the 77 drugs and respective metabolites tested. CONCLUSIONS:A high-throughput SPE-tandem mass spectrometry method for TMP/SMX quantification was developed. The <20 seconds analysis time is a significant improvement compared with traditional HPLC and liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry methods, without sacrificing analytical performance.
