Abstract
An accurate, reliable, and sensitive method was successfully developed to simultaneously determine p-Nitroaniline (p-NA) and its metabolites in blood based on the hyphenated technology of quadrupole-orbitrap high resolution mass spectrometry (Q-Orbitrap HRMS) and ultra-performance liquid chromatography (UPLC). After the blood sample was extracted with ethyl acetate, the organic layer was taken for injection and analysis. Within the concentration range of 1-100 μg/L, the calibration curves of p-NA and its metabolites had a good linearity, with correlation coefficient(r) values greater than 0.999. This method has excellent precision and accuracy. The intra- and inter-day coefficients of variation (CVs) were less than 9.9% and 8.7% respectively, and the analytical accuracy ranged from 83.1% to 101.3%. The lower limits of detection (LLODs) for all target analytes were between 0.6 μg/L and 2.2 μg/L, and the lower limits of quantification (LLOQs) were between 2.0 μg/L and 7.4 μg/L. In addition, the application potential of this method was verified by analyzing the blood samples of workers exposed to p-NA. The results indicated that this method was accurate, reliable and sensitive, and was applicable to the detection of p-NA and its metabolites in the blood.
期刊介绍：
Frontiers in Chemistry is a high visiblity and quality journal, publishing rigorously peer-reviewed research across the chemical sciences. Field Chief Editor Steve Suib at the University of Connecticut is supported by an outstanding Editorial Board of international researchers. This multidisciplinary open-access journal is at the forefront of disseminating and communicating scientific knowledge and impactful discoveries to academics, industry leaders and the public worldwide.
Chemistry is a branch of science that is linked to all other main fields of research. The omnipresence of Chemistry is apparent in our everyday lives from the electronic devices that we all use to communicate, to foods we eat, to our health and well-being, to the different forms of energy that we use. While there are many subtopics and specialties of Chemistry, the fundamental link in all these areas is how atoms, ions, and molecules come together and come apart in what some have come to call the “dance of life”.
All specialty sections of Frontiers in Chemistry are open-access with the goal of publishing outstanding research publications, review articles, commentaries, and ideas about various aspects of Chemistry. The past forms of publication often have specific subdisciplines, most commonly of analytical, inorganic, organic and physical chemistries, but these days those lines and boxes are quite blurry and the silos of those disciplines appear to be eroding. Chemistry is important to both fundamental and applied areas of research and manufacturing, and indeed the outlines of academic versus industrial research are also often artificial. Collaborative research across all specialty areas of Chemistry is highly encouraged and supported as we move forward. These are exciting times and the field of Chemistry is an important and significant contributor to our collective knowledge.
