title: Simultaneous determination of lansoprazole enantiomers and their metabolites in plasma by liquid chromatography with solid-phase extraction.
abstract: A simple and highly sensitive high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method for the simultaneous quantitative determination of lansoprazole enantiomers and their metabolites, 5-hydroxylansoprazole enantiomers and lansoprazole sulfone, in human plasma have been developed. Chromatographic separation was achieved with a Chiral CD-Ph column using a mobile phase of 0.5M NaClO(4)-acetonitrile-methanol (6:3:1 (v/v/v)). The analysis required only 100 microl of plasma and involved a solid-phase extraction with Oasis HLB cartridge, with a high extraction recovery (>94.1%) and good selectivity. The lower limit of quantification (LOQ) of this assay was 10 ng/ml for each enantiomer of both lansoprazole and 5-hydroxylansoprazole, and 5 ng/ml for lansoprazole sulfone. The coefficient of variation of inter- and intra-day assay was <8.0% and accuracy was within 8.4% for all analytes (concentration range 10-1000 ng/ml). The linearity of this assay was set between 10 and 1000 ng/ml (r2>0.999 of the regression line) for each of the five analytes. This method is applicable for accurate and simultaneous monitoring of the plasma levels of lansoprazole enantiomers and their metabolites in the renal transplant recipients.
