Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of drug content detection technology, and specifically to the application of a fluorescent carbon dot for mycophenolic acid detection. Background Technology

[0002] Mycophenolate amino acid (MPA) is a highly potent and selective inhibitor of hypoxanthine mononucleotide dehydrogenase, widely used in solid organ transplantation and the treatment of immune-inflammatory diseases. Mycophenolate has a narrow therapeutic window, with a trough concentration range of 1-4 μg / mL and a peak concentration range of 10-55 μg / mL. The area under the concentration-time curve estimated by limiting sampling is 30-60 mg·h·L. -1 The pharmacokinetics of MPA (metastatic arteriovenous agonists) varies considerably among individuals. Its concentration is related to efficacy and adverse reactions, and is significantly affected by concomitant medication. Therefore, monitoring MPA concentration is of great importance, and MPA detection has been recognized as a valuable adjunct in clinical treatment. Currently, the main methods for determining MPA blood concentration include chromatographic analysis (HPLC and LC-MS / MS) and enzyme-amplified immunoassay (EMIT). A key issue in monitoring plasma concentrations of immunosuppressive drugs is the analytical specificity of the method. Chromatographic analysis can be used for specific analysis of MPA due to its high instrument precision and lack of cross-reactivity with metabolites. However, the expensive equipment and time-consuming sample pretreatment make it difficult to meet the time-sensitive reporting requirements of large-scale clinical blood drug concentration monitoring. Therefore, it is inconvenient for routine drug monitoring. LC-MS / MS may suffer from ion inhibition, leading to a decrease in MPA blood concentration. Compared with chromatographic analysis, EMIT has advantages such as high detection efficiency and simple operation, and is used as a routine monitoring method. However, the high cost of the reagent kit increases the economic burden on patients. Therefore, there is an urgent clinical need to establish a rapid, accurate, and low-cost MPA detection method to guide patients in rational drug use. Summary of the Invention

In plasma, the recoveries ranged from 97.81% to 100.64%, with RSDs ranging from 0.13% to 6.76%. This indicates that the MPA detection method has good accuracy and reproducibility.
