title: Sensitive and specific LC-ESI-MS/MS method for the determination of a styrylquinoline, BA011FZ041, a potent HIV anti-integrase agent, in rat plasma.
abstract: A LC-MS/MS method was validated for the determination of BA011FZ041, a styrylquinoline derivative. After addition of BA011FZ055 as internal standard (IS), the method involved solid phase extraction (SPE), LC separation with an ether-phenyl column and quantification by MS/MS after positive ESI. The calibration curve, ranging from 1 to 500 ng/mL was fitted to a 1/x-weighted quadratic regression model. Lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) was 1 ng/mL using 100 microL of plasma. Intra- and inter-assay precision and accuracy values were within the regulatory limits. The method was successfully applied to the determination of BA011FZ041 in rat plasma and PBMCs after i.v. dosing.
