| Abstract | The emerging stimulant drug of abuse (3,4)-methylenedioxypyrovalerone [(R,S)-MDPV] is self-administered as a racemic mixture by intranasal, iv, oral, and smoking routes. The individual enantiomers are known to have widely different pharmacological effects, with (S)-MDPV showing much greater potency than (R)-MDPV in pharmacological testing. The goal of these studies was to develop and validate an analytical method for quantitation of (R)-MDPV, (S)-MDPV and (R,S)-MDPV in small volumes of rat serum using a chiral separation column and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. The method was validated for selectivity, precision, accuracy, recovery, sensitivity, and reproducibility. The method was also used to determine the enantiomeric stability of the individual enantiomers during sample cleanup and analysis. The linear dynamic range of the calibration curve was 1–1000 ng ml−1 for each enantiomer. Concentration values for the lower limit of quantitation (1 ng ml−1) were within 30% of their nominal value, but all other calibration standards were <20% of their nominal value. With proper storage and handling of samples, the two MDPV enantiomers were shown to remain stable in rat serum without any apparent racemization during the time needed for analysis. Finally, the ruggedness of the method was demonstrated with diluted and undiluted serum samples collected from Sprague Dawley rats in a preliminary pharmacokinetic study at 3 mg kg−1 of (R,S)-MDPV. In summary, the assay used a simple sample preparation method, reversed-phase chiral chromatography, and tandem mass spectrometry to achieve accurate and selective determinations of MDPV enantiomer concentrations in small volumes of serum. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
