we have searched some related articles, no significant interference was reported except one article.

Hi

Is it real plasma or artificial?

Salicylic acid can be used as a food preservative and antiseptic in toothpaste so can be present in real plasma I suppose.

we have some experience with animal tissues and SA (we use lc/mc/mc i residue analysis). We find SA every time (at the low levels, below ppb).

Thank you for the replies, it is real monkey plasma,
dr_Pyrex, thank you for your share, it is very useful for me, but Do you find the SA below the ppb(ng/ml) level?
we always found the SA at ppb(ng/ml) level, thank you for your help!

Maybe I was not precise: we have obtain results for SA in the range 0.01-0.5 ug/kg (ng/g) (in the muscles)
