Zusammenfassung:In this study, we developed and validated a HPLC-MS/MS method capable of simultaneously determining levodopa, carbidopa, entacapone, tolcapone, 3-O-methyldopa and dopamine in human plasma. RESULTS & METHODOLOGY: Chromatographic separation was achieved using a C8 column with a mobile phase consisting of a gradient of water and acetonitrile:methanol (90:10 v/v), both containing 0.1% formic acid. The developed method was selective, sensitive (LD0.99), precise (RSD
