MassChrom® Immunosuppressants in Whole Blood by LC-MS/MS

Kit for 400 tests (Order no. 93000)
Kit for 1200 tests, including Analytical Column, Trap Column and 6PLUS1® Multilevel Calibrator Set (Order no. 93000/1200)

 

Clinical Relevance

This assay allows the quantitative determination of cyclosporin A, everolimus, sirolimus (rapamycin) and tacrolimus (FK-506) in human EDTA whole blood samples via liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS).

It is intended as a therapeutic drug monitoring test for patients treated with one or several immunosuppressants named above.

 

Product advantages

• Isotopically labelled internal standard for each analyte
• 6PLUS1® Multilevel Calibrator Set and MassCheck® controls
• Additional trap column for removing interfering substances

 

Assay characteristics

The manual preparation of the sample is limited to a simple and effective protein precipitation process. The analytes are enriched, and interfering substances removed via a trap column. Chromatographic separation is then performed by an analytical column connected to a 2-position 6-port, or 2-position 10-port valve. The use of isotopically-labelled internal standards ensures the precision and robustness of the method and compensates for matrix effects (such as ion suppression).

Detailed performance evaluation data for this assay can be found in the appendix of the instruction manual.

For accelerated analysis and higher sample throughput, we also offer the ONEMINUTE Method for LC-MS/MS (order no. 93900).
