    Abstract:
    Molecular-secondary-ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) is a suitable method for the analysis of nonvolatile substances such as conjugated metabolites of drugs. We have developed a simple method for the direct SIMS measurement of conjugates following thin-layer chromatography without any extraction procedure. After separation with a butanol-acetic acid-ethanol-water (3:1:1:1, v/v) system, the spot was cut out and attached to a SIMS probe. The conjugates of p-nitrophenol and 4-hydroxyantipyrine were measured. The quantitative application of the method is also discussed, using deuterium-labelled internal standards for p-nitrophenol conjugates.
