Therapeutic Drug Research

Highlighted Applications

Fast turnaround is key, and simple, robust methodology is essential for analysis of therapeutic drugs.

Whether it's for analysis by LC-MS/MS or LC-UV, sample preparation will clean up biological fluid samples and help you detect drugs in the correct therapeutic range.

A variety of sample preparation techniques and applications are highlighted here, but if you would like to discuss your sample preparation needs, contact one of our technical experts.

biomark002.297 - LC MS Multiple Analysis

Extraction of Therapeutic Drugs from Plasma

These simple clean-up methodologies are ideal for therapeutic drug monitoring applications for a variety of commonly used drugs:

Mycophenolic Acid

Voriconazole

Axitinib

GS-441524 (Remdesivir metabolite)

Immunosuppressants in Whole Blood

Immunosuppressants inhibit or prevent the activity of the immune system used to prevent rejection of transplanted organs and treat autoimmune diseases. Due to the risks of immunodeficiency, those under treatment must undergo constant therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) requiring reliable and robust analytical techniques for quantification of these drugs.

Sirolimus, Tacrolimus, Everolimus and Cyclosporin A

Therapeutic Peptides

Solid Phase extraction (SPE) will clean up samples and allow for robust analysis. These application notes describe SPE methods for a number of therapeutic peptides:

Desmopressin in Serum

Teicoplanin in Plasma

Oxytocin and Vasopressin in Serum
