Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of drug concentration detection, and particularly relates to a method for detecting concentration of psychotropic drugs by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry and solid phase extraction. BACKGROUND
[0002] Psychotropic drugs are widely used in clinical applications, and the concentration monitoring of the psychotropic drugs in the human body is of great significance for the evaluation of treatment effect and the guarantee of drug safety. The existing methods for detecting the concentration of psychotropic drugs have certain limitations. For example, although the traditional high performance liquid chromatography can detect some psychotropic drugs, it is easy to be interfered by matrix effect when dealing with complex biological samples, resulting in the decrease of detection sensitivity and accuracy. Some methods based on immune analysis have poor specificity, which may cause cross-reaction and affect the reliability of the detection results. The liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry technology combines the separation ability of liquid chromatography and the high sensitivity detection advantage of mass spectrometry, and becomes a powerful means for drug concentration detection. However, in the actual application, there are still many problems in the sample pretreatment process. For example, the commonly used liquid-liquid extraction method is complicated to operate, large amount of organic solvent is used, and emulsification phenomenon is easy to occur, which affects the subsequent detection efficiency and accuracy. Although the solid phase extraction as a sample pretreatment technology has certain advantages, the existing solid phase extraction method still needs to be improved in the extraction efficiency of psychotropic drugs, and the applicability is not wide enough for different structures and properties of psychotropic drugs, which is difficult to meet the demand of detecting the concentration of multiple psychotropic drugs at the same time.
[0003] The patent document with publication number CN112730686A discloses a method for detecting concentration of psychotropic drugs by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry and solid phase extraction, which comprises the following steps: A, pretreating the sample to be detected; the pretreatment is specifically performed by the method of solid phase extraction; B, preparing standard samples of different concentrations of psychotropic drugs, then performing liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry detection, and drawing a standard curve; C, performing liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry detection on the sample to be detected obtained after step A, and obtaining the concentration of the psychotropic drugs. The liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry method used in the present application detects the concentration of drugs by the different mass ratios of various drugs, and has high specificity and sensitivity.
[0004] However, the above-mentioned patent document has the problems of matrix interference, low extraction efficiency and narrow application range in the process of detecting the concentration of psychotropic drugs. Therefore, the present application proposes a method for detecting concentration of psychotropic drugs by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry and solid phase extraction to solve the above-mentioned problems. SUMMARY
[0005] The present application aims to solve the problems of matrix interference, low extraction efficiency and narrow application range in the process of detecting the concentration of psychotropic drugs in the prior art, and proposes a method for detecting concentration of psychotropic drugs by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry and solid phase extraction.
[0006] The method for detecting the concentration of psychotropic drugs by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry solid phase extraction provided by the application adopts the following technical scheme:
[0007] The method for detecting the concentration of psychotropic drugs by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry solid phase extraction comprises the following steps:
[0008] S1: selecting reagents and materials, and configuring an eluent;
[0009] S2: collecting a biological sample and pretreating the biological sample to obtain a clear sample extract;
[0010] S3: adding the pretreated sample extract to a solid phase extraction column for adsorption;
[0011] S4: monitoring the adsorption process in real time;
[0012] S5: eluting the solid phase extraction column after adsorption and collecting the eluent;
[0013] S6: analyzing and monitoring the collected eluent and evaluating the effect;
[0014] S7: injecting the concentrated sample solution into a liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry instrument for detection;
[0015] S8: calculating the accurate concentration of psychotropic drugs in the biological sample and performing data processing and analysis.
[0016] Further, in S1, a filler with high purity and a specific particle size (such as 3-10 μm) is selected, and a mixed mode functional group (such as an ion exchange group and a reversed phase chromatography group) is chemically bonded to the surface of the filler, for example, the filler surface contains carboxylic acid groups (for ion exchange) and C18 hydrophobic chains (for reversed phase adsorption), which can capture the ionized and hydrophobic parts of psychotropic drugs under specific pH conditions, an internal standard (such as a deuterated psychotropic drug) similar in structure to the target drug but different in mass spectrometry characteristic ion is selected, and a 100 μg / mL stock solution is prepared, and the storage temperature is-20℃.
[0017] Further, in S1, a special eluent is configured, which contains the following components: methanol or acetonitrile: 70-90% v / v, used to destroy the hydrophobic interaction between the drug and the filler; ammonium formate: 10 mM, used to adjust the ionic strength; formic acid: 0.1%, used to maintain pH 3.0-4.0 and ensure partial ionization of the drug; surfactant: 0.05%, used to assist in desorption of strongly adsorbed drugs, the eluent is filtered and sterilized (0.22 μm filter membrane) and ultrasonically degassed.
[0018] Further, in S2, the biological sample is collected by a collection mechanism, placed in a centrifuge tube containing an anticoagulant (such as heparin sodium), and stored at a temperature of 4°C to prevent degradation. To 1 mL of the biological sample, 3 mL of acetonitrile (containing 0.1% formic acid) is added, and the mixture is mixed by a vortex oscillator. The supernatant is collected, the vortex oscillator is set to 10,000 rpm, and the centrifugation time is 10 min. The supernatant is filtered through a 0.45 μm filter to obtain a clear sample extract, which is placed in an ice bath for standby. Phosphate buffer (pH 7.0-8.0) is added to the sample extract to adjust the pH of the mixture to 6.5-7.5, ensuring that the drug is in an ionized state suitable for adsorption.
[0019] Further, in S3, 5 mL of methanol and 5 mL of equilibration liquid (such as 0.1% formic acid aqueous solution) are sequentially passed through the extraction column to activate the filler. The pretreated sample extract is slowly added to the solid-phase extraction column at a flow rate of 1-2 mL / min to ensure that the drug molecules are in full contact with the filler for adsorption. The adsorption temperature is 4°C-25°C to avoid high temperature-induced drug degradation or non-specific adsorption.
[0020] Further, in S4, a UV detector is connected to the outlet end of the solid-phase extraction column, and the wavelength is 210-280 nm to monitor the absorbance change of the effluent. When the absorbance drops to the baseline level (indicating that no drug is flowing out), the adsorption process is complete.
[0021] Further, in S5, the column is quickly rinsed with 0.5 mL of pretreatment liquid (such as 5% methanol aqueous solution) to remove weakly adsorbed impurities. 1.5 mL of prepared eluent is slowly injected at a flow rate of 0.5-1 mL / min. In the initial stage, a low flow rate is maintained to fully desorb the drug. According to the UV signal of the effluent, the temperature (25°C-40°C) and flow rate of the eluent are dynamically adjusted to avoid drug peak broadening. Subsection collection (each 0.5 mL as a subsection) is adopted, and the eluent is collected in a labeled centrifuge tube.
[0022] Further, in S6, the drug concentration and purity of each subsection of the eluent are rapidly analyzed by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry, the pH value (should be 3.0-4.0) and conductivity (<10 mS / cm) of the eluent are measured, the elution efficiency is evaluated, the drug recovery rate (target value >85%) and purity (impurity content <5%) are calculated, and if the recovery rate is low, the eluent composition or flow rate is checked; if the purity is insufficient, the pretreatment step is optimized.
[0023] Further, in S7, the eluent is concentrated to 100 mu L at 40 DEG C with a nitrogen blowing instrument to avoid high temperature damage to the drug, and the liquid chromatography conditions are as follows: a chromatographic column is a C18 column (150 mm*2.1 mm, 3 mu m); a mobile phase is that A phase is 0.1% formic acid aqueous solution, and B phase is acetonitrile; gradient elution is that 0-2 min (20% B), 2-8 min (20%-80% B), a flow rate is 0.3 mL / min; mass spectrometry conditions are that an electrospray ion source (ESI+ mode) is used, a spraying voltage is 3.5 kV; a quantitative ion is selected [M+H]+ ion (such as m / z 300) of a drug molecule; and an internal standard ion is selected characteristic ion (such as m / z 305) of an internal standard molecule.
[0024] Further, in S8, according to the mass spectrometry signal ratio (such as peak area ratio) of the drug to be detected and the internal standard substance, a standard curve equation y=kx+b, R 2 >0.99 is used to calculate the drug concentration in the sample, original data are integrated, corrected and statistically analyzed by using Waters QuanLynx, a detection limit (LOD, signal-to-noise ratio 3:1) and a quantitative limit (LOQ, signal-to-noise ratio 10:1) are evaluated, and it is ensured that the sensitivity of the method meets the clinical requirements.
[0025] In summary, the present application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
[0026] 1. The present application can effectively improve the extraction efficiency and purity of psychotropic drugs by optimizing the chemical composition and structure of the solid phase extraction column filler and carefully preparing the special eluent, the component design of the eluent can fully destroy the interaction between the drug and the filler, ensure the efficient elution of the drug molecule, and improve the sensitivity and accuracy of the detection;
[0027] 2. The present application can effectively cope with the polarity and binding characteristics of different drugs by adjusting the pH value, ionic strength and organic solvent ratio of the eluent, and realize the simultaneous detection of multiple psychotropic drugs;
