The precision and accuracy data have to fulfill the requirements for quantification of the analytes in biological matrices to generate data for bioequivalence and bioavailability investigations. A peerless basic C18, 5 μ column having 4.6 mm×100 mm internal diameter in binary gradient mode with flow rate was 0.8 mL/minutes of mobile phase containing methanol and 2 mm ammonium formate were used. The chromatographic separation was achieved by using elution solution consisting of methanol and 2 mm ammonium formate (70:30%, v/v)], diluent solution of methanol and water (50:50%, v/v)] were monitored on a triple quadrupole mass spectrometer, operating in the multiple reaction monitoring mode. The method was validated over the concentration range 0.5-205.170 ng/mL. Limit of detection and limit of quantification were found 0.18 ng and 0.536 ng, respectively. The retention time for AC and ISTD were 2 minutes and 2.4 minutes respectively and overall chromatography run time was 3.2 minutes. The mean recovery of AC (100.0%) and ISTD (102.5%) from spiked plasma samples was consistent and reproducible. The method was validated for linearity, accuracy, precision, specificity, limit of detection, limit of quantification and robustness. The intra- and inter-day precision and accuracy values were found to be within the assay variability limits as per the food and drug administration guidelines.</p><p class="Pa8"><strong>Keywords: </strong>Acrivastine, Pirfenidone, Liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometer, Linearity, Validation. </p> ER -
