ABSTRACT
Recently we published in this journal an enantioselective high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method for the quantitative determination of 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) and its major phase-1 metabolites, 4-hydroxy-3-methoxyamphetamine (HMA), 4-hydroxy-3-methoxymethamphetamine (HMMA) and 3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine (MDA) in human plasma, sweat, oral fluid and urine. Since we did not achieve simultaneous enantioseparation of all 4 compounds with a single chiral column, two amylose-based chiral columns were used alternatively. Further optimization of the mobile phase in the present study enabled baseline separation of all four pairs of enantiomers on a single Lux AMP column. In addition, by optimization of the column dimension and applied flow-rate it became possible to complete the separation within 6 minutes. These new methods were applied to the analysis of human plasma, oral fluid and urine. While results on the concentration of MDMA and its metabolites in various biological fluids were reported in our recent publication, in the present study an attempt was made to hydrolyze glucuronides in urine samples by using alternatively, hydrochloric acid or glucuronidase and to evaluate the effect of hydrolysis on the concentration and enantiomeric distribution of hydroxy metabolites of MDMA such as HMA and HMMA.
