A validated bioanalytical method for the determination of piperaquine (PQ) in plasma by solid-phase extraction (SPE) and liquid chromatography (LC) using peak compression is presented. Protein is precipitated from plasma with acetonitrile-1% aqueous acetic acid (85:15, v/v). An internal standard (IS) is added to the samples before they are loaded onto a strong cation exchanger (Isolute PRS) SPE column. PQ and the IS are analyzed by LC on a Zorbax SB-CN column (250 × 4.0 mm) with the mobile phase acetonitrile.phosphate buffer [I = 0.1, pH 2.5 (12:88, v/v)] and UV detection at 345 nm. Trichloroacetic acid (TCA) is added to the samples prior to injection into the chromatography system. PQ elutes in a gradient of TCA, which enables peak compression of PQ and significantly higher peak efficiency as a result. The intraassay precision for plasma is determined to be 5.4% at 3.00µM and 5.8% at 0.050µM. The interassay precision for plasma is 1.3% at 3.00µM and 10.0% at 0.050µM. The lower limit of quantitation and the limit of detection are 0.025 and 0.005µM, respectively.
