  Author(s): Divya Vilas K, Sandeep Reddy C, Prashanthi R and Ankit C*
  
  Acetaminophen (paracetamol, N-(4-hydroxyphenyl) acetamide) is one of the most prescribed drugs for the pain management, minor aches, and treatment of fever. Quantification of acetaminophen in pre-term and term neonates and small children requires the availability of highly sensitive assays in small volume blood samples. We developed and validated an LC-MS/MS assay for the quantification of acetaminophen in human whole blood. The drug molecule was extracted from whole blood samples followed by protein precipitation extraction technique followed by LC-MS/MS analysis. An excellent analyte separation was achieved by using a phenomenex Gemini® C18 column (50× 3.0 mm, 3 μm) using mobile phase A-Water:Formic Acid (100:0.1) and Acetonitrile:Formic acid (100:0.1) as mobile phase B. With 3.40 minutes as analytical run time, this analytical method demonstrated linearity between 50.0.. View More»
