Abstract
A liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometric (LC/MS/MS) method for the determination of a new ox-azolidinone antibiotic DA-7867, (S)-[N-3-(4-(2-(1-methyl-5-tetrazolyl)-pyridine-5-yl)-3- fl uorophenyl)-2-oxo-5-oxazolidinyl]methyl acetamide, in human plasma was developed. DA-7867 and internal standard, linezolid, were extracted from human plasma with ethyl acetate at acidic pH. A reverse-phase LC separation was performed on Luna C(8) column with the mixture of acetonitrile-ammonium formate (10 mm, pH 4.5; 35:65, v/v) as mobile phase. The analytes were determined using an electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry in the multiple-reaction-monitoring mode. The lower limits of quanti fi cation for DA-7867 was 2.5 ng/mL. The single liquid-liquid extraction quantitatively recovered DA-7867 and internal standard from plasma samples at the ranges of 82.2-86.7%. DA-7867 was stable in blank human plasma at room temperature for 24 h and following three freeze-thaw cycles.
