4.3 Analysis by HPLC-MS/MS<br />
4.3.1 Principle <strong>of</strong> Measurement<br />
An aliquot <strong>of</strong> the prepared sample solution is injected into the high performance liquid<br />
chromatograph and subjected to reversed phase chromatography coupled with tandem<br />
mass spectrometry with electrospray ionization. The protonated molecular ions <strong>of</strong> the<br />
analytes are accelerated by the adequate voltage regulation and filtered by the first<br />
quadrupole due to its mass-to-charge (m/z) ratio. These precursor ions are impulsed<br />
with nitrogen in the collision cell (second quadrupole) and each fragment ion (product<br />
ions) is separated according to its m/z ratio in the third quadrupole, two <strong>of</strong> these product<br />
ions per analyte are selected for multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) one product ion<br />
(MRM-transition) serving for quantitation and the second for confirmation.<br />
