Yunaconitine and indaconitine are active ingredients from the rhizomes of Aconitum plants. In this study, an ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) method was developed to measure the concentrations of the yunaconitine and indaconitine in mouse blood, and the method was applied in measuring the pharmacokinetics of the two alkaloids after oral and intravenous administration. A UPLC HSS T3 column (2.1 mm × 100 mm, 1.8 μm particle size) was used for chromatographic separation by gradient elution using acetonitrile–water (0.1% formic acid) as the mobile phase at a flow rate of 0.4 mL/min. Multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode and electrospray ionization (ESI) (positive-ion mode) were used to monitor the transitions of each analyte by tandem mass spectrometry for quantitative analysis. Yunaconitine and indaconitine were administered to the mice orally at 2 mg/kg and intravenously at 0.05 mg/kg. Blood was collected at various time intervals, and the blood samples were processed after collection and analyzed by UPLC-MS/MS. The standard curve generated for each analyte was linear over the concentration range of 0.5–500 ng/mL. The intra-day and inter-day accuracy of yunaconitine and indaconitine were 90%–103% and 86%–106%, respectively, and the precision (RSD, %) was less than 15% for both intra-day and inter-day measurements. The matrix effect ranged from 96% to 109%, and the recovery was higher than 72%. The UPLC-MS/MS method developed herein was successfully applied to measuring the pharmacokinetic parameters of yunaconitine and indaconitine in mice after intravenous and oral administration. The bioavailability of yunaconitine and indaconitine were 27.4% and 25.8%, respectively.
