PG - 52-6 AB - A rapid, sensitive and selective high-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometric method (HPLC/MS-MS) has been developed and validated for the determination of bromadiolone in whole blood using warfarin as an internal standard (IS). Bromadiolone was extracted from the whole blood samples by liquid-liquid extraction with ethyl acetate. Multiple-reaction monitoring (MRM) was used to detect bromadiolone and IS, using precursor --> product ion combinations at m/z 527 --> 465 and 307 --> 161, respectively. The calibration curve was linear (r2=0.998) in the concentration range of 0.5-100.0 ng/mL with a lower limit of quantification of 0.5 ng/mL in whole blood. Intra- and inter-day relative standard deviations (R.S.D.s) were less than 7.5 and 11.9%, respectively. Recoveries of bromadiolone ranged from 82.1 to 85.2%. This method is found to be determined trace bromadiolone in whole blood and can be used in the diagnosis of the poisoned human beings.
