A sensitive and selective liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS) method for determination of meropenem in rabbit plasma was developed. After addition of triazolam as internal standard (IS), protein precipitation by acetonitrile was used in sample preparation. Chromatographic separation was achieved on a Restek Allure (TM) PFP Propyl (2.1 mm × 100 mm, 5 μm) column with acetoni...

This finding, initially termed the one gene-one enzyme hypothesis, helped sc...
