Methylphenidate (MPH) is a stimulant medication widely used for treating attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children and adolescents. Therapeutic monitoring for this drug is essentially lacking and alternative biological matrices, such as oral fluid and sweat, should be investigated for
Jianhua Zhang et al.
Pharmaceutical research, 20(11), 1881-1884 (2003-12-10)
This study was to develop and validate a new chiral HPLC-UV method for the quantitative analysis of enantiomeric ritalinic acid (RA) in human plasma. An alpha1-acid glycoprotein column was used with the mobile phase containing 0.4% acetic acid and 0.1%
Mitsuhiro Wada et al.
Analytical and bioanalytical chemistry, 400(2), 387-393 (2011-02-15)
An HPLC-peroxyoxalate chemiluminescence (PO-CL) method for simultaneous determination of methylphenidate (MPH) and ritalinic acid (RA) was developed. The method was used to monitor MPH and RA after administration of MPH to rats. Deproteinized plasma spiked with 1-(3-trifluoromethylphenyl)piperazine (IS) was dried

Journal of chromatography. B, Analytical technologies in the biomedical and life sciences, 783(1), 73-83 (2002-11-27)
This work presents a high-throughput selected reaction monitoring (SRM) LC-MS method for the determination of methylphenidate (MPH), a central nervous stimulant, and its de-esterified metabolite, ritalinic acid (RA) in rat plasma samples. A separation of these two compounds was achieved
D R Doerge et al.
Rapid communications in mass spectrometry : RCM, 14(8), 619-623 (2000-04-29)
Methylphenidate (MP, Ritalin) is a psychotropic drug widely prescribed to children for treating the symptoms of attention deficit disorder with and without hyperactivity. Because little information exists about the effects of chronic MP administration on cognitive function in children, measures
