The use of liquid chromatography coupled to sector field inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (SF-ICP-MS) for the specific detection of sulfur-containing compounds is described. In the sulfur-containing drug substance cimetidine, structurally related impurities well below the 0.1 % mass fraction. level relative to the main drug substance could easily be detected. The structure of most of the impurities was confirmed by electrospray mass spectrometry (ESI-MS), and thus, the complementarity of the two techniques for drug analysis is shown. The limit of detection by SF-ICP-MS for cimetidine in solution was similar to4-20 ng.g(-1), but it was blank-limited.
