Clinical relevance

Epileptic seizures are the result of synchronous discharges of neuron groups in the brain that can lead to sudden and involuntary stereotypical behavioural or sensory disorders. Numerous types of seizures have been described, each of which requires specialised therapy. The probability of them occurring depends on a number of factors. In addition to genetic predisposition, it is primarily exogenous factors that are relevant, such as accident, thrombosis, tumours or meningitis. Therapy with anticonvulsive medication (antiepileptics) leads to a reduction in seizures and sometimes even a complete elimination of seizures in most treated patients. The precondition for the antiepileptics to have a therapeutic effect is usually patient compliance, which means regular use of the medication. Thus, monitoring of the blood levels is essential, especially during initial dose setting.

 

MassTox® TDM Series A

The MassTox® TDM Series A is a modular system that enables the determination of 200 analytes without changing column or mobile phases, thereby minimising the workload in the laboratory.
It consists of 3 parts:
• MassTox® TDM Basic Kit A
• Specific MassTox® TDM Parameter Set (13 different parameter sets available)
• Analytical column MassTox® TDM MasterColumn® A

Please note The information listed here, including the sample preparation, is not sufficient for using the product. Please read the information provided in the instruction manual, which includes detailed information on limitations associated with the use of the product in line with its intended purpose. Detailed performance evaluation data can be found in the appendices of the instruction manual.
Lower Limit of Quantitation 0.004 – 9 mg/l
Upper Limit of Quantification up to 0.50 – 275 mg/l
Sample Preparation

The information on the sample preparation presented here is not sufficient for use in the laboratory. For a detailed step by step description, please refer to the instruction manual.

Automated Sample Preparation
• Load samples, calibrators, controls, reagents and required lab equipment on the MassSTAR.
• Start the automated sample preparation. *
• After completion, remove well plate from the liquid handling device, seal with a pierceable seal and transfer to autosampler.
• Inject ≤ 30 μl eluate into the LC-MS/MS system.

* Ready to use automation routine provided with the installation by Chromsystems.

Run Time 4.9 min
Injection Volume 0.2 – 30 µl
Gradient binary
Ionisation ESI positive and negative
MS/MS Mode MRM
Additional Info

This method further includes 26 internal standards, which are not shown in the chromatogram for clarity.

To avoid ESI switching, the analysis of ethosuximide, phenobarbital and valproic acid can be performed separately in ESI negative mode.
