High-sensitivity and simultaneous analysis of Psychoactive drugs
using LC-MS/MS with full-automated pretreatment system
Figure 2 CLAM-2000 and LCMS-8060 system
Methods and Materials
The analysis of 60 psychoactive drugs (eight Barbiturate
drug, thirty-nine Benzodiazepines and their metabolites,
twelve Tri-/Tetra- cyclic antidepressant and
bromovalerylurea) were performed using a fully automatic
LCMS preparation unit (CLAM-2000, Shimadzu) online
with HPLC-LCMS (NexeraX2-LCMS-8060, Shimadzu).
Samples were trapped on Imtakt Unison UK-C18
(10x2mm, 3.0μm), then separated by Imtakt Unison
UK-C18 (75x2mm, 3.0μm) with a binary gradient system.
Water with ammonium formate and methanol were used
for mobile phases.

LC/MS/MS conditions (Nexera system and LCMS-8060)
Usually LC-MS/MS analysis of biological samples require
some manual preparation steps such as protein
precipitation, solid phase extraction or liquid/liquid
extraction before the injection. With the aim to reduce
the operator involvement, to increase the throughput
and the data quality, we completely eliminated the
manual sample preparation procedure by the use of a
novel automatic preparation unit including precipitation,
ltration, incubation, shaking and pipetting. Serum and
whole blood spiked with sixty psychoactive drugs were
pretreated with organic solvent and ltration by the
unit. On the other hands, urine spiked with their drugs
were only ltration. The treated samples were trapped
for cleaning and concentration, then separated by
Unison UK-C18 in HPLC Unit.
The recovery of whole blood spiked with sixty
psychoactive drugs were more than 70% and the
recovery of serum and urine spiked with them were
more than 80%. We completed analysis of their
psychoactive drugs in several biological matrices using
the automated sample preparation system coupled to
LC-MS/MS
