Abstract
Cyclosporin A (CsA) is a potent immunosuppressant widely used in human medicine to prevent rejection of transplanted organs. Total concentration of CsA and its metabolites in human blood was determined by pyrolysis mass spectrometry (pyr-ms). Mass to charge (m/z) values of 100 of CsA and 3-nitroaniline as an internal standard were used for quantitative measurements by selected ion monitoring (SIM). Results of pyr-ms at 420°C are highly reproducible. Limit of detection (LOD) and linearity were determined to 0.7 ng ml-1 and 0.7 ng ml-1 - 100 mg ml-1 , respectively. LOD is improved to 0.02 ng ml-1 by using a solid phase extraction (SPE) disk. Results of pyr-ms are compared with those obtained by the high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) measurements.
