The SALLE was performed by mixing samples (plasma (0.2 mL), urine or lake water (1.0 mL)) with acetonitrile (0.4 mL for plasma, 0.5 mL for urine or lake water), sodium hydroxide powder was then added for the phase separation. The effects of type of salting-out reagent, type of extraction solvent, volumes of acetonitrile and sample, amount of sodium hydroxide, vortexing and centrifugation times on the extraction efficiency were investigated. The upper layer, containing the biguanides, was directly injected into a HPLC unit using ZIC-HILIC column (150 mm Ã? 2.1 mm Ã? 3.5 μm) and was detected at 236 nm. The method was validated and calibration curves were linear with r2 > 0.99 over the range of 20â??2000 μg Lâ??1 for plasma and 5â??2000 μg Lâ??1 for urine and lake water samples. The limits of detection were in the range (3.8â??5.6) μg Lâ??1, (0.8â??1.5) μg Lâ??1 and (0.3â??0.8) μg Lâ??1 for plasma, urine and lake water, respectively. The accuracies in the three matrices were within 87.3â??103, 87.4â??109, 82.2â??109 of the nominal concentration for metformin, buformin and phenformin, respectively. The relative standard deviation for inter- and intra â??day precision were in the range of 1.0â??17 for all analytes in the three matrices. © 2017 Elsevier B.V. AV - none PB - Elsevier B.V.
