Rapid Determination of Sildenafil and Its Analogues in Dietary Supplements Using Gas Chromatography-Triple Quadrupole Mass Spectrometry

Application of gas chromatography–triple quadrupole mass spectrometry for identification, confirmation and quantification of 6 phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE-5) inhibitors (sildenafil, dimethylsildenafil, homosildenafil, thiosildenafil, thiodimethylsildenafil and thiohomosildenafil) in dietary supplements...
