The development of a method is described for the analysis of hydroxypipecolic acids in crudely purified plant extracts. All eight known naturally-occurring mono-and di-hydroxypipecolic acids could be resolved in a single analysis by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) of their trimethylsily

β¦ Synopsis
A gas-chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) method for the determination of plasma ibuprofen was developed. Plasma samples from cystic fibrosis (CF) patients receiving high-dose ibuprofen therapy were analyzed by GC-MS and the result compared to analysis by high-performance liquid chromatography (reference method). Analysis of ibuprofen was sensitive to at least 5 mg/L, and the method was linear to 200 mg/L. Within-run variations of plasma samples were 4.6% (131.7 Β± 6.0 mg/L) and 5.4% (44.4 Β± 2.4 mg/L), respectively. The between-run variation was 9.3% (45.4 Β± 4.2 mg/L) and 7.4% (88.0 Β± 6.5 mg/L). This method is suited for routine clinical use for the monitoring of plasma ibuprofen levels in treatment of CF. It may be particularly applicable in pediatric laboratories, which are likely to possess GC-MS capability.
