      Direct quantitative bioanalysis of drugs in dried blood spot samples using a thin-layer chromatography mass spectrometer interface
      P. ABU-RABIE*, N. SPOONER (*PreClinical Development Drug Metabolism and Pharmacokinetics, GlaxoSmithKline Research and Development, Park Road, Ware, Hertfordshire, SG12 ODP, United Kingdom; Paul.2.Abu-Rabie@gsk.com)

      Anal. Chem. 81, 10275-10284 (2009). Direct quantitative bioanalysis of drugs from dried blood spot samples using a TLC-MS interface with or without HPLC separation. The method gave acceptable sensitivity, linearity, accuracy, and precision data for bioanalytical validations. The direct elution technique was shown to increase assay sensitivity for a range of analytes. Investigations were performed to optimize extraction time, minimize sample-to-sample carry-over, and compare chromatographic performance. On the basis of this preliminary assessment, it has been demonstrated that this TLC-MS interface has the potential to be an effective tool for the direct analysis of drugs in dried blood samples at physiologically relevant concentrations.

      Ultra-thin-layer chromatography mass spectrometry and thin-layer chromatography mass spectrometry of single peptides of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors
      Irena VOVK*, Gordana POPOVIC, Breda SIMONOVSKA, A. ALBREHT, Danica AGBABA (*National Inst. of Chem., Lab. for Food Chem., Hajdrihova 19, SI-1000 Ljubljana, Slovenia)

      J. of Chromatogr. A 1218 (20), 3089-3084 (2011). Comparison of the separation of the structurally related angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors lisinopril, cilazapril, ramipril and quinapril and their corresponding active diacid forms (prilates) by conventional TLC on silica gel with the separation on monolithic ultra-TLC (UTLC) phase. Technical modifications of the commercially available equipment for sample application, development and detection were necessary for the use with UTLC plates. Development in a modified horizontal developing chamber with ethyl acetate - acetone - acetic acid - water 16:4:1:2. Detection by absorbance measurement at 220 nm and after exposure to iodine vapors under daylight, as well as by image analysis. As a result the monolithic layer was more efficient for the separation of structurally similar polar compounds, such as prilates, than conventional silica layers. Confirmation of the identity of the compounds by ESI-MS after their online extraction from the UTLC and TLC plates.
