Gas chromatographic-mass spectrometric determination of isosorbide 5-mononitrate in human plasma.
A highly specific and precise method using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry was developed for the measurement of isosorbide 5-mononitrate in plasma using isomannide mononitrate as internal standard. With regard to the numerous analytical problems encountered when organic mononitrates were determined in plasma, such as thermal instability and adsorption, compounds were silylated before gas chromatography. In order to increase the specificity of the assay, two specific ions of the isosorbide 5-monitrate were simultaneously recorded. The accuracy of the assay was tested day to day with quality specimens spiked blind to the analyst.
