Protodioscin (3-O-[alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1-->2)-{alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1-->4)}-beta-D-glucopyranosyl]-26-O-[beta-D-glucopyranosyl]-(25 R)-furost-5-ene-3 beta,26-diol) is a naturally occurring saponin present in many oriental vegetables and traditional medicinal plants, which has been associated with potent bioactivity. However, there is no specific and sensitive assay for quantitative determination of protodioscin in biological samples. We have established a rapid, sensitive and selective LC-ESI-MS/MS method to measure protodioscin in rat plasma and investigated the pharmacokinetics of protodioscin after intravenous administrations. Plasma samples were prepared after plasma protein precipitation, and a aliquot of the supernatant was injected directly onto an analytical column with a mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile-water-formic acid (80:20:0.1, v/v/v). Analytes were detected with a LC-ESI-MS/MS system in positive selected multiple reaction-monitoring mode. The lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) was 20.0 ng/mL and a linear range of 20-125,000 ng/mL. The intra- and inter-day relative standard deviation (R.S.D.) across three validation runs over the entire concentration range was <8.0%. Accuracy determined at three concentrations (50, 5000 and 50,000 ng/mL for protodioscin) ranged from 0.2 to 1.8% as terms of relative error (R.E.). Each plasma sample was chromatographed within 3.5 min. This LC-ESI-MS/MS method allows accurate, high-throughput analysis of protodioscin in small amounts of plasma.
