RESUMO
Analysis of drugs and other related molecules in biofluids is essential in the pharmaceutical field. Nowadays, the development of innovative solutions in analytical chemistry has been pushed by the needs for speed and more complex analysis. Lately, multidimensional liquid chromatography using column switching for direct injection of biofluids has gained attention. At the same time, liquid chromatography hyphenated with mass spectrometry provided remarkable scientific development in biomedical and biochemical area. This thesis presents the scale reduction steps in RAM column switching, for drug analysis in biofluids. In the conventional scale, using 4.6 mm i.d. columns, a system was developed, providing fluoxetine analysis in plasma. The developed method resulted in a 20 min long run, including the sample preparation step, which consumed 100 µL of sample. The method was adequately validated, being applicable to therapeutic drug monitoring. The microbore scale (2.1 mm) was evaluated, presenting great potentiality for coupling with electrospray-mass spectrometry. In the first capillary scale step, using 520 µm columns, a system was developed for fluoxetine analysis. Fluoxetine analysis was achieved in 25 min, within the application range for therapeutic drug monitoring, and consuming few microliters of sample. Finally, a RAM capillary column switching system employing columns on the order of 200 µm was developed, in an innovative way. This system was coupled with a tandem mass spectrometer, rendering sensitive and simultaneous analysis with reduced sample volume. The analysis of one group containing five antidepressants, as well as the analysis of albendazol and its metabolites was validated. These analyses took only 8 minutes and consumed less than one microliter of sample. In contrast with conventional systems, this system consumes about hundreds or thousands times less sample, with the same detectability.
