General Pharmaceutics / Pharmacology Experimentation

Quantitation of a compound can begin once an analytical method has been developed. Using validated method procedures, samples containing unknown concentrations of a compound will be processed by PhASR staff and analyzed on the PhASR LC/MS equipment. Samples may arise from biological matrices, such as plasma, urine or feces, or they may come from in vitro systems. The validity of results is ensured by 1) the method validation process, 2) processing quality control samples, and 3) standard samples, all processed and analyzed in parallel to the unknown samples. Once a run is complete, the PhASR will review the data to ensure all QCs fell within the allowed range of accuracy and the measured standard sample concentrations produce a linear range for quantitation. If the pre-established quality controls are not met, PhASR staff will repeat the run, making any adjustments necessary to further ensure accuracy and precision.
