Abstract
Amoxicillin is a frequently used beta-lactam antibiotic and at the same time a fragile analyte. Aim of this work was to investigate the sensitive properties of amoxicillin in biological samples and validate a quantification method for amoxicillin in soft tissue samples. Simple protein precipitation and 2D-High performance liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry was used for sample preparation and analysis. The formation of a covalent amoxicillin methanol-adduct could be observed in varying extents depending on matrix and sample preparation method. In-Source Products (ISPs) were investigated in plasma, soft tissue, and water and no differences could be observed. We successfully validated a method for amoxicillin determination in tissue samples using the sum of 2 ISPs of amoxicillin for quantification. 37 study samples of different deep-seated infections could be analyzed. Measured amoxicillin concentrations ranged from below 0.5 mg/kg up to 87 mg/kg. Concentrations in abscesses were lower than in other infections.
期刊介绍:
Helvetica Chimica Acta, founded by the Swiss Chemical Society in 1917, is a monthly multidisciplinary journal dedicated to the dissemination of knowledge in all disciplines of chemistry (organic, inorganic, physical, technical, theoretical and analytical chemistry) as well as research at the interface with other sciences, where molecular aspects are key to the findings. Helvetica Chimica Acta is committed to the publication of original, high quality papers at the frontier of scientific research. All contributions will be peer reviewed with the highest possible standards and published within 3 months of receipt, with no restriction on the length of the papers and in full color.
