Quantitative Analysis of Nicotine and Cotinine in Biological Samples

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Nicotine was purchased from MilliporeSigma (St. Louis, MO), and nicotine-d4, cotinine, and cotinine-d3 were purchased from Cerilliant (Round Rock, TX). Water (Optima grade), acetonitrile (Optima grade), and acetic acid (Optima grade) were purchased from Fisher Scientific (Hampton, NH). PBS and ALI media were prepared (ALI media protocol is given in Supplementary Information) and used in pre-exposure HTBEC smoke exposure experiments as an apical lavage and basolateral cell media, respectively, to provide true matrix blanks for method development. Calibrators for nicotine, cotinine, and isotopically labeled standards were prepared in acetonitrile. To 60 μL of pre-exposure PBS or ALI sample, 10 μL of each standard was added and vortexed (30 s) for final nicotine and cotinine concentrations ranging from 10 to 1500 ng/mL and isotopically labeled standard concentrations of 1000 ng/mL. Nicotine and cotinine in pre-exposure PBS and ALI were used directly in PS-MS/MS. Nicotine calibrators for GC-MS/MS were prepared by adjusting the pH to 13 by addition of 2.5M NaOH followed by liquid-liquid extraction of PBS and ALI samples with 1 mL of 30:30:40 methyl tert-butyl ether:dichloromethane:ethyl acetate, sample drying, and reconstitution in 80 μL of acetonitrile.20

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
