A validated liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry assay for the analysis of pretomanid in plasma samples from pulmonary tuberculosis patients.

ABSTRACT: A method for the extraction and quantification of pretomanid in 40 μL of human plasma, by high performance liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) detection was developed and validated. Samples were prepared using liquid-liquid extraction and chromatographic separation was achieved on an Agilent Poroshell C18 column using an isocratic elution at a flow rate of 400 μL/min. Electrospray ionization with mass detection at unit resolution in the multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode on an AB Sciex API 3200 mass spectrometer was used. Over the validation period, accuracy, precision, selectivity, sensitivity, recovery and stability were assessed. The calibration range was 10 - 10 000 ng/mL. Inter- and intra-day precision, expressed as the coefficient of variation (%CV), w
