    Abstract:
    The lack of individual pure standard has hampered the application of therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) for multi-component antibiotics in clinical laboratories. Here, we aimed to develop an integrated identification-quantification (ID-Quant) workflow based on ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with quadrupole/time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UHPLC-QTOF-MS) to enable the comprehensive determination of all teicoplanin components without needing pure standards. The workflow comprises three steps. First, non-targeted MSE full scanning was used to detect and identify all potential ingredients. Then, characteristic product ions were selected to generate a quantitative time-of-flight multiple reaction monitoring (Tof-MRM) method. Finally, the constituent composition of teicoplanin injection was determined and utilized as an alternative reference standard to monitor the teicoplanin ingredients in human serum samples. As a result, nine teicoplanin analogs were identified from teicoplanin injection (Sanofi-Aventis, France). The overall performance of the Tof-MRM method was satisfactory in terms of linearity, precision, accuracy, and limits of detection. Utilizing the drug as standard, the individual concentrations for each component in patient serum were determined to be 0.120 µg/mL (A3-1), 0.020 µg/mL (N-1), 0.550 µg/mL (N-2), 0.730 µg/mL (A2-1), 4.26 µg/mL (A2-2,3), 4.79 µg/mL (A2-4,5), and 0.290 µg/mL (N-3), respectively. The distribution pattern of teicoplanin components was also discovered to differ from that in the drug injection. Overall, this integrated ID-Quant workflow based on UHPLC-QTOF-MS enables the robust quantitation of all teicoplanin analogs without the need for individual pure standard. This approach could help address the standard unavailability problem in the TDM of multi-component antibiotics.
