    Abstract:
    A rapid, sensitive and selective liquid chromatography-tandem spectrometry method was developed and validated for determination of paeoniflorin in rat plasma using geniposide as the internal standard. The samples were pretreated with solid-phase extraction using Extract-Clean cartridges. Separation of paeoniflorin and IS was achieved on a reversed-phase C18 column (50x4.6 mm i.d.) with a mobile phase made up of acetonitrile and 0.05% formic acid (25:75, v/v) at a flow rate of 0.5 mL/min. Detection was carried out on a triple quadrupole tandem mass spectrometer by multiple-reaction monitoring and an electrospray ionization source was employed as the ionization source. The lower limit of quantification obtained was 4 ng/mL (n=6) using 200 microL plasma with an accuracy of -3.67% (relative error) and a precision of 4.13% (relative standard deviation). A good linearity was found in the range of 4-1000 ng/mL. The intra- and inter-day relative standard deviations in the measurement of quality control samples 10, 150 and 800 ng/mL ranged from 3.73 to 4.94% and from 4.31 to 6.56%, respectively. The accuracy was from -3.93 to -1.11% in terms of relative error. The analyte and IS were stable in the battery of stability studies. This method was successfully applied to a pharmacokinetic study of paeoniflorin after a single oral administration of 53.36 mg/kg paeoniflorin to rats.
