Objective To develop a high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) method for the determination of the content of 4-fluoromethamphetamine (4-FMA) in rat plasma, and to provide a methodological basis for the study of the toxicokinetics of 4-FMA in rats. Methods Rat plasma samples were added into internal standard methamphetamine (MA). Its proteins were precipitated with methanol and then separated with Poroshell 120 EC-C18 chromatographic column. A 0.1% formic acid aqueous solution and a 0.1% formic acid acetonitrile solution were used as the mobile phase at the flow rate of 0.4 mL/min. Electrospray ionization source was used for detection in the multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode. Results The linear relationship was good when the mass concentration of 4-FMA in plasma samples was in the range of 5-1 000 ng/mL (r>0.999). The limit of detection (LOD) was 3 ng/mL and the limit of quantification (LOQ) was 5 ng/mL. The accuracy was expressed as relative error (RE), and in the range of ±5%, the intra-day precision and inter-day precision (relative standard deviation, RSD) less than 9%, and the extraction recovery rate was more than 90%. The analysis and detection of plasma samples were completed within 2.5 min. Conclusion This study developed a HPLC-MS/MS method for the determination of 4-FMA in rat plasma samples. This method is accurate, rapid, simple and sensitive and can be applied to the study of toxicokinetics of 4-FMA.
