Increased Analyte Sensitivity through the Utility of Enhanced Mass-Resolution on the FinniganTSQ Quantum Discovery

imally-treated complex biological matrix, was compared at unit and enhanced mass-resolution. In this manner, an assessment of the improvement in LOQ for this compound at enhanced mass-resolution can be made.

Experimental

Chemicals and Reagents
Rat plasma was purchased from Bioreclamation Inc. (Hicksville,NY, USA). Optima-grade (99.9%) acetonitrile and methanol were obtained from Fisher Scientific Co. (Pittsburgh, PA,USA), ammonium acetate from Sigma Chemical Co.(St.Louis, MO,USA), and glacial acidic acid (99.99+%) from Aldrich Chemical Company (Milwaukee, WI,USA). Water was purified using a compact ultra-pure water system (EASYpure UV, Dubuque, IA,USA).

Sample Preparation
150 μL of internal standard (IS) in acetonitrile solution (conc. 10 ng/mL) was added to 50 μL of drug discovery compound A in rat plasma (concs. 250 ng/mL). After plasma precipitation, the mixture was vortexed for 30 s, and then centrifuged for 10 min. The supernatant was transferred to a clean 96-well plate for LC/MS/MS analysis.
