Matrix effects in ultra-high performance supercritical fluid chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis of vitamin E in plasma: The effect of sample preparation and data processing. Talanta 2024; 280:126658. [PMID: 39137659 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2024.126658] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/06/2024] [Revised: 07/29/2024] [Accepted: 07/31/2024] [Indexed: 08/15/2024]
Abstract
The approaches to matrix effects determination and reduction in ultra-high performance supercritical fluid chromatography with mass spectrometry detection have been evaluated in this study using different sample preparation methods and investigation of different calibration models. Five sample preparation methods, including protein precipitation, liquid-liquid extraction, supported liquid extraction, and solid phase extraction based on both "bind and elute" and "interferent removal" modes, were optimized with an emphasis on the matrix effects and recovery of 8 forms of vitamin E, including α-, β-, γ-, and δ-tocopherols and tocotrienols, from plasma. The matrix effect evaluation included the use and comparison of external and internal calibration using three models, i.e., least square with no transformation and no weighting (1/x0), with 1/x2 weighting, and with logarithmic transformation. The calibration model with logarithmic transformation provided the lowest %-errors and the best fits. Moreover, the type of the calibration model significantly affected not only the fit of the data but also the matrix effects when evaluating them based on the comparison of calibration curve slopes. Indeed, based on the used calibration model, the matrix effects calculated from calibration slopes ranged from +92% to - 72% for α-tocopherol and from -77% to +19% in the case of δ-tocotrienol. Thus, it was crucial to calculate the matrix effect by Matuszewski's post-extraction approach at six concentration levels. Indeed, a strong concentration dependence was observed for all optimized sample preparation methods, even if the stable isotopically labelled internal standards (SIL-IS) were used for compensation. The significant differences between individual concentration levels and compounds were observed, even when the tested calibration range covered only one order of magnitude. In methods with wider calibration ranges, the inappropriate use of calibration slope comparison instead of the post-extraction addition approach could result in false negative results of matrix effects. In the selected example of vitamin E, solid-phase extraction was the least affected by matrix effects when used in interferent removal mode, but supported liquid extraction resulted in the highest recoveries. We showed that the calibration model, the use of a SIL-IS, and the analyte concentration level played a crucial role in the matrix effects. Moreover, the matrix effects can significantly differ for compounds with similar physicochemical properties and close retention times. Thus, in all bioanalytical applications, where different analytes are typically determined in one analytical run, it is necessary to carefully select the data processing in addition to the method for the sample preparation, SIL-IS, and chromatography.

Chiral LC-MS/MS method for the simultaneous determination of (R,S)-ketamine, (R,S)-norketamine, and (2R,6R;2S,6S)-hydroxynorketamine in mouse plasma and brain. J Pharm Biomed Anal 2023; 224:115168.

Abstract
A convenient LC-MS/MS assay method to simultaneously and sensitively determine (R,S)-ketamine (Ket), (R,S)-norketamine (NK), and (2R,6R;2S,6S)-hydroxynorketamine (HNK) enantiomers in plasma and brain from mice was developed. This method enables the chiral separations of these six enantiomers in one analysis by constructing a column-switching system composed of one achiral column and two chiral columns with a relatively short analysis time (17 min). The chromatography involves the separation of (2R,6R;2S,6S)-HNK from (R,S)-Ket and (R,S)-NK on an octadecyl-silica column, followed by chiral separations on a CHIRALPAK AY-RH column for (2R,6R;2S,6S)-HNK or on a CHIRALPAK AS-RH column for the other analytes. The calibration curves for plasma and brain showed a good linearity in the range of 3-1000 ng/mL and 1.5-500 ng/g, respectively. The accuracy ranged from 90.0% to 104.0% in within-run and between-run. This validated method was applicable to determine the stereoselective pharmacokinetic profiles of (R,S)-Ket, (R,S)-NK, and (2R,6R;2S,6S)-HNK in plasma and brain collected from individual mice after a single intraperitoneal dosing of racemic Ket at an antidepressant dose. It is hoped that this assay will greatly help for understanding the relationship between the antidepressant actions of (R,S)-Ket enantiomers or their metabolites and their pharmacokinetics.

Abstract
The chiral drug ketamine has long-lasting antidepressant effects with a fast onset and is also suitable to treat patients with therapy-resistant depression. The metabolite hydroxynorketamine (HNK) plays an important role in the antidepressant mechanism of action. Hydroxylation at the cyclohexanone ring occurs at positions 4, 5, and 6 and produces a total of 12 stereoisomers. Among those, the four 6HNK stereoisomers have the strongest antidepressant effects. Capillary electrophoresis with highly sulfated γ-cyclodextrin (CD) as a chiral selector in combination with mass spectrometry (MS) was used to develop a method for the enantioselective analysis of HNK stereoisomers with a special focus on the 6HNK stereoisomers. The partial filling approach was applied in order to avoid contamination of the MS with the chiral selector. Concentration of the chiral selector and the length of the separation zone were optimized. With 5% highly sulfated γ-CD in 20 mM ammonium formate with 10% formic acid and a 75% filling the four 6HNK stereoisomers could be separated with a resolution between 0.79 and 3.17. The method was applied to analyze fractionated equine urine collected after a ketamine infusion and to screen the fractions as well as unfractionated urine for the parent drug ketamine and other metabolites, including norketamine and dehydronorketamine.

Abstract
Ketamine (Ket) and midazolam (Mdz) are among well-known anesthetic agents which frequently coadministered in surgical procedures and emergency department. Only a few reports have been published for the simultaneous analysis of these compounds. In the present study, we reported a simple, sensitive, and rapid method for simultaneous determination of Ket and Mdz based on headspace solid-phase microextraction coupled with ion mobility spectrometry (HS-SPME-IMS). Ion mobility spectrometer operated under positive mode of a corona discharge ionization source using ammonia as a dopant. The effective parameters on the extraction process consisting of pH of the sample, extraction temperature, extraction time, salt concentration were optimized. The calibration plots exhibited good linearity over the concentration ranges of 10-800 and 100-1500 µg L-1 and detection limit of 8.9 and 52 µg L-1 for Ket and Mdz respectively with correlation coefficients greater than 0.99. The relative standard deviation (RSD) for five replicate measurements was determined to be less than 8%. Finally, the applicability of the proposed method was tested in human plasma and serum samples. These tests showed that the matrix in serum samples interfere with midazolam determination but quantitative recoveries from 85 to 95 % were obtained for both drugs in the human plasma samples. The method herein provides simple and suitable approach while minimizing sample preparation and the overall complexity of the analysis in comparison to existing methodologies.

Abstract
Modeling of metabolite kinetics after oral administration of ketamine is of special interest because of the higher concentrations of active metabolites because of the hepatic first-pass effect. This holds especially in view of the potential analgesic and antidepressant effects of 2R,6R- and 2S,6S-hydroxynorketamine at low doses of ketamine. Therefore, a 9-compartment model was developed to analyze the pharmacokinetics of ketamine enantiomers and their metabolites after racemic ketamine administered intravenously (5 mg) and as 4 doses (10, 20, 40, and 80 mg) of a prolonged-release formulation (PR-ketamine). Using a population approach, the serum concentration-time data of the enantiomers of ketamine, norketamine, dehydronorketamine, and 2,6-hydroxynorketamine obtained in 15 healthy volunteers could be adequately fitted. The estimated model parameters were used to simulate serum concentration-time profiles; after multiple dosing of PR-ketamine (2 daily doses of 20 mg), the steady-state concentrations of R- and S-ketamine were 1.4 and 1.3 ng/mL, respectively. The steady-state concentration of 2R,6R-hydroxynorketamine exceeded those of R-norketamine (4-fold), R-dehydonorketamine (8-fold), and R-ketamine (46-fold), whereas that of 2S,6S-hydroxynorketamine exceeded that of S-ketamine by 14-fold. The model may be useful for identifying dosing regimens aiming at optimal plasma concentrations of 2,6-hydroxynorketamines.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The anesthetic ketamine after intravenous dosing is nearly completely metabolized to R- and S-stereoisomers of the active norketamine (analgesic, psychoactive) and 2,6-hydroxynorketamine (potential analgesic, antidepressant) as well as the inactive dehydronorketamine. Oral administration favors the formation of 2,6-hydroxynorketamines via extensive presystemic metabolism. The authors hypothesized that plasma exposure to 2,6-hydroxynorketamines relative to the psychoactive ketamine is greater after prolonged-release ketamine tablets than it is after intravenous ketamine. METHODS Pharmacokinetics of ketamine after intravenous infusion (5.0 mg) and single-dose administrations of 10, 20, 40, and 80 mg prolonged-released tablets were evaluated in 15 healthy white human subjects by means of a controlled, ascending-dose study. The stereoisomers of ketamine and metabolites were quantified in serum and urine by validated tandem mass-spectrometric assays and evaluated by noncompartmental pharmacokinetic analysis. RESULTS After 40 mg prolonged-release tablets, the mean ± SD area under the concentrations-time curve ratios for 2,6-hydroxynorketamine/ketamine were 18 ± 11 (S-stereoisomers) and 30 ± 16 (R-stereoisomers) compared to 1.7 ± 0.8 and 3.1 ± 1.4 and after intravenous infusion (both P < 0.001). After 10 and 20 mg tablets, the R-ratios were even greater. The distribution volumes at steady state of S- and R-ketamine were 6.6 ± 2.2 and 5.6 ± 2.1 l/kg, terminal half-lives 5.2 ± 3.4 and 6.1 ± 3.1 h, and metabolic clearances 1,620 ± 380 and 1,530 ± 380 ml/min, respectively. Bioavailability of the 40 mg tablets was 15 ± 8 (S-isomer) and 19 ± 10% (R-isomer) and terminal half-life 11 ± 4 and 10 ± 4 h. About 7% of the dose was renally excreted as S-stereoisomers and 17% as R-stereoisomers. CONCLUSIONS Prolonged-release ketamine tablets generate a high systemic exposure to 2,6-hydroxynorketamines and might therefore be an efficient and safer pharmaceutical dosage form for treatment of patients with chronic neuropathic pain compared to intravenous infusion.

Abstract
Hydroxynorketamines (HNKs) are formed in vivo after (R,S)-ketamine (ketamine) administration. The 12 HNK stereoisomers are distinguished by the position of cyclohexyl ring hydroxylation (at the 4, 5, or 6 position) and their unique stereochemistry at two stereocenters. Although HNKs were initially classified as inactive metabolites because of their lack of anesthetic effects, more recent studies have begun to reveal their biologic activities. In particular, (2R,6R)- and (2S 6)-HNK exert antidepressant-relevant behavioral and physiologic effects in preclinical models, which led to a rapid increase in studies seeking to clarify the mechanisms by which HNKs exert their pharmacological effects. To date, the majority of HNK research has focused on the actions of (2R,6R)-HNK because of its robust behavioral actions in tests of antidepressant effectiveness and its limited adverse effects. This review describes HNK pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, as well as the putative cellular, molecular, and synaptic mechanisms thought to underlie their behavioral effects, both following their metabolism from ketamine and after direct administration in preclinical studies. Converging preclinical evidence indicates that HNKs modulate glutamatergic neurotransmission and downstream signaling pathways in several brain regions, including the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex. Effects on other neurotransmitter systems, as well as possible effects on neurotrophic and inflammatory processes, and energy metabolism, are also discussed. Additionally, the behavioral effects of HNKs and possible therapeutic applications are described, including the treatment of unipolar and bipolar depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, chronic pain, neuroinflammation, and other anti-inflammatory and analgesic uses. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: Preclinical studies indicate that hydroxynorketamines (HNKs) exert antidepressant-relevant behavioral actions and may also have analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and other physiological effects that are relevant for the treatment of a variety of human diseases. This review details the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of the HNKs, as well as their behavioral actions, putative mechanisms of action, and potential therapeutic applications.

Abstract
Enantiomers are ubiquitous in nature, and they are especially important in the field of pharmaceutical chemistry. Although the enantiomers of chiral drugs have identical chemical structures, they differ notably in their pharmacological, toxicological, pharmacokinetic, metabolic, and other biological activities. The same is true for amphetamines, ketamine, and cathinones, as the chiral separation of these three drugs is representative of drugs. Gas chromatography (GC), high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and capillary electrophoresis (CE) are widely used for the chiral separation of these three kinds of drugs. There are some similarities among the three methods for the chiral separation of amphetamines, ketamine, and cathinones: n-trifluoroacetyl-L-prolinyl chloride and (+)R-α-methoxy-α-trifluoromethylphenylacetic acid are the two typical chiral derivatization reagents used in GC. In HPLC, three kinds of chiral stationary phases are used: proteins, polysaccharides, and macrocyclic antibiotics. Cyclodextrin and its derivatives are most commonly used in CE. However, these three methods have inherent shortcomings. In the case of GC, impurities produced during chiral derivatization may interfere with the analysis, and high reaction temperatures affect the efficiency of chiral separation. HPLC has limited application scope and is expensive. In CE, there has no established process to determine the appropriate chiral selector. In recent years, research into application of the chiral separation of the above-mentioned three kinds of drugs has its own characteristics in forensic toxicology. The chiral separation of amphetamine drugs is mostly used to infer the prototype and synthesis route of drugs on the market. The chiral separation of ketamine involves a variety of biological samples. For cathinones, chiral separation methods emphasize their wide applicability. In this review, 66 reports published in professional local and overseas magazines during the past decade are collated. The characteristics of the enantiomers of amphetamines, ketamine, and cathinones as well as the mechanism of chiral recognition are briefly introduced. The commonness of the research and the application of chiral separation in forensic toxicology are reviewed. This paper proposes that the chiral separation of drugs can be further investigated from the following three aspects: 1) the use of computer technology to establish a molecular model for exploring the mechanism of chiral recognition; 2) developing new technologies for chiral separation and carrying out commercial research on the supercritical fluid method; 3) applying chiral separation to judicial practice, pharmaceutical research and development, and other practical fields.

ENVIRONMENT INTERNATIONAL 2020; 138:105645.

Abstract
The rate of drug excretion (excretion factor) is a critical parameter for monitoring drug consumption in the population by wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE). Previous studies have refined excretion factors for common illicit drugs, such as cocaine, amphetamine, methamphetamine, heroin, to improve the accuracy and reduce uncertainty in back-calculating consumption. Nevertheless, for ketamine, one of the most prevalent psychoactive substances, a careful review of its excretion factors has not been performed due to limited pharmacokinetic data. Here we review WBE studies and seizure data to refine and validate the excretion factors for ketamine and norketamine. The average ketamine/norketamine ratio in wastewater (5.36) was much higher than that found in urine (0.64), which means that the excretion factors derived only from pharmacokinetics data are not appropriate. Based on the comparison of the ratio between estimated consumptions of ketamine and methamphetamine by WBE with their corresponding ratio in official seizure data, a revised WBE excretion factor of 20% was proposed for ketamine following this review and applied to estimate the ketamine consumption in China. The revised estimates of ketamine consumption corresponded well with drug statistics. This suggests that the revised ketamine excretion factor is appropriate for estimating ketamine consumption by WBE. Systematic review of WBE studies is a suitable approach to refine the excretion factors for substances with inadequate pharmacokinetic data.

Subcritical Fluid Chromatography at Sub-Ambient Temperatures for the Chiral Resolution of Ketamine Metabolites with Rapid-Onset Antidepressant Effects. Molecules 2019; 24:E1927.

Abstract
Chiral metabolites of ketamine exerting rapid-onset yet sustained antidepressant effects may be marketed directly in the future, but require chemo- and enantio-selective chromatographic methods for quality assurance and control. The chromatographic behavior of S-/R-ketamine, S-/R-norketamine, S-/R-dehydronorketamine, and (2R,6R)-/(2S,6S)-hydroxynorketamine in supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) was investigated computationally and experimentally with the aim of identifying problematic pairs of enantiomers and parameters for chiral resolution. Retention on three different polysaccharide-based chiral stationary phases (Lux Amylose-2, i-Amylose-3, and i-Cellulose-5) provided new information on the significance of halogen atoms as halogen bond donors and hydrogen bond acceptors for enantioselectivity, which could be corroborated in silico by molecular docking studies. Modifiers inversely affected enantioselectivity and retention. Methanol yielded lower run times but superior chiral resolution compared to 2-propanol. Lower temperatures than those conventionally screened did not impair phase homogeneity but improved enantioresolution, at no cost to reproducibility. Thus, sub-ambient temperature subcritical fluid chromatography (SubFC), essentially low-temperature HPLC with subcritical CO2, was applied. The optimization of the SubFC method facilitated the chiral separation of ketamine and its metabolites, which was applied in combination with direct injection and online supercritical fluid extraction to determine the purity of pharmaceutical ketamine formulations for proof of concept.

Rapid electrophoretic monitoring of the anaesthetic ketamine and its metabolite norketamine in rat blood using a contactless conductivity detector to study the pharmacokinetics.

Abstract
A method of capillary electrophoresis with contactless conductivity detection has been developed for non-enantioselective monitoring the anaesthetic ketamine and its main metabolite norketamine. The separation is performed in a 15 μm capillary with an overall length of 31.5 cm and length to detector of 18 cm; inner surface of the capillary is covered with a commercial coating solution to reduce the electroosmotic flow. In an optimised background electrolyte with composition 2 M acetic acid + 1% v/v coating solution under application of a high voltage of 30 kV, the migration time is 97.1 s for ketamine and 95.8 s for norketamine, with an electrophoretic resolution of 1.2. The attained detection limit was 83 ng/mL (0.3 μmol/L) for ketamine and 75 ng/mL (0.3 μmol/L) for norketamine; the number of theoretic plates for separation of an equimolar model mixture with a concentration of 2 μg/mL was 683 500 plates/m for ketamine and 695 400 plates/m for norketamine. Laboratory preparation of rat blood plasma is based on mixing 10 μL of plasma with 30 μL of acidified acetonitrile, followed by centrifugation. A pharmacokinetic study demonstrated an exponential decrease in the plasma concentration of ketamine after intravenous application and much slower kinetics for intraperitoneal application.

Abstract
In a previous review (Sánchez-Camargo et al., J. Sep. Sci. 40 (2017) 213-227), we discussed the application of on-line supercritical fluid extraction coupled to chromatographic techniques. This review includes an update of the most recent publications (from January 2016 till June 2018) on this topic, which employs advanced analytical techniques for extracting and identifying valuable analytes. Supercritical fluid extraction has been widely recognized as a green sample preparation technique, because it is efficient, environmentally friendly, powerful, and faster, offering the possibility of direct coupling to analytical instrumental techniques. Among those techniques, supercritical fluid chromatography has experienced an innovative progression in the last 10 years, and the most recent applications of supercritical fluid extraction are coupled to this advanced analytical tool. The general principles, both methodological and instrumental of on-line supercritical fluid extraction coupled to supercritical fluid chromatography are described here. Besides, applications of the mentioned coupling for analysing biological fluids, food, soil, and botanical samples are also presented and discussed. Finally, a brief description about the very recent on-line coupling of supercritical fluid extraction to ion mobility spectrometry is presented, as well as concluding remarks about the importance of using these coupled techniques in the near future.

Abstract
Hyphenating SFC with MS is now routinely performed in analytical laboratories. Major instrument providers supply commercial solutions for coupling SFC and MS, which has facilitated wider adoption of the technology. The current status, however, could be achieved based on the work done by many researchers over decades. Interfacing SFC with MS posed some unique challenges, compared to interfacing MS with LC or GC, demanding special solutions. Several interface designs were tried and tested over the years before suitable solutions could be detected. Additional measures, such as (a) mixing SFC mobile-phase with an additional liquid solvent at the column outlet, and (b) heating the interfacing device, had to be adopted to address some specific challenges. Although such modifications and measures look diverse, there is one factor that drove most of them - compressibility of SFC mobile-phase. There are two objectives of this review - (1) to compile various insights which were reported on describing and optimizing SFC-MS interfacing processes, and (2) to link these insights with the fundamental issue of solvent compressibility.
