The CAMPRAL®

The CAMPRAL® AC220 enteric coated tablets containing 333 mg Acamprosate per tablet, were obtained from Forest pharmaceuticals, INC, USA. The 1200 Series HPLC system (Agilent Technologies, Waldbronn, Germany), Mass spectrometry API 4200 triple quadrupole instrument (ABI-SCIEX, Toronto, Canada) and data processing was performed on Analyst 1.5.1 software package (SCIEX). The mass spectrometer was operated in the multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode. Sample introduction and ionization were electrospray

ionization in the negative ion mode. Sources dependent parameters optimized were as follows: nebulizer gas flow: 20 psi; Heatergas flow 40 psi; curtain gas flow: 8 psi; ion spray voltage (ISV): 5500 V; temperature (TEM): 650 °C. The compound dependent parameters such as the declustering potential (DP), focusing potential (FP), entrance potential (EP), collision energy (CE), cell exit potential Ibrutinib cell line (CXP) were optimized during tuning as 55, 30, 10, 18, 12 eV for Acamprosate and Acamprosate D12, respectively. The collision activated dissociation (CAD) gas was set at 5 psi using nitrogen gas. Quadrupole 1 and quadrupole 3 were both maintained at a unit resolution and dwell time was set at 600 ms for Acamprosate and Acamprosate D12. The mass transitions were selected as m/z 180.0 → 79.9 for Acamprosate and m/z 186.1→ 79.9 for

Acamprosate D12. The parent and product ion spectra for Acamprosate and Acamprosate D12 are represented in Figs. 2a and b, 3a and b respectively. The data acquisition was ascertained by Analyst 1.5.4software. Waters Atlantis, HILIC, 50 × 2.1 mm, 3 μm, was selected as the analytical column connected with Guard column Waters Atlantis, HILIC, 10 × 2.1 mm, 3 μm. Column temperature was set at 40 °C. Mobile phase composition was 10 mM Ammonium formate pH 3.5: Acetonitrile (10:90 v/v). Source flow rate 250 μL/min without split. Injection volume of 10 μL. Acamprosate and Acamprosate D12 were eluted at 2.1 ± 0.2 min, with a total run time of 3.0 min for each sample. Acamprosate and Acamprosate D12 standard stock solutions 100 μg/mL each were prepared by dissolving the appropriate standard in methanol. From the Acamprosate

stock solution calibration and quality control standards were prepared by using screened human blank plasma as diluent. Calibration standards were prepared at concentration levels of 1.00, others 2.00, 5.00, 25.00, 50.00, 100.00, 150.00, 200.00 and 250.00 ng/mL. Quality control standards were prepared at concentration levels of 1.00, 3.00, 125.00 and 175.00 ng/mL for Acamprosate. Internal standard spiking solution at 50 ng/mL concentration was prepared by using 50% methanol solution from Acamprosate D12 standard stock solution. Calibration and quality control standards were prepared from two separate stock solutions of Acamprosate and stored at −30 °C. Internal standard spiking solution was stored in refrigerator conditions at 2–8 °C until analysis.
