In this paper, a simple and efficient ultrasound-assisted ionic liquid dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (UA IL-DLLME) coupled with high-performance liquid chromatography for the analysis of ulipristal acetate (UPA) was developed. UPA could be easily migrated into 1-octyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate [C8mimPF6] IL phase without dispersive solvent. The research of extraction mechanism showed that hydrophobic interaction force played a key role in the IL-DLLME. Several important parameters affecting the extraction recovery were optimized. Under the optimized conditions, 25-fold enrichment factor was obtained and the limit of detection (LOD) was 6.8 ng mL(-1) (tablet) or 9.3 ng mL(-1) (serum) at a signal-to-noise ratio of 3. The calibration curve was linear over the range of 0.03-6.0 µg mL(-1). The proposed method was successfully applied to the UPA tablets and the real mice serum samples.

D013607	Tablets	Solid dosage forms, of varying weight, size, and shape, which may be molded or compressed, and which contain a medicinal substance in pure or diluted form. (Dorland, 28th ed)	Tablet
D014465	Ultrasonics	A subfield of acoustics dealing in the radio frequency range higher than acoustic SOUND waves (approximately above 20 kilohertz). Ultrasonic radiation is used therapeutically (DIATHERMY and ULTRASONIC THERAPY) to generate HEAT and to selectively destroy tissues. It is also used in diagnostics, for example, ULTRASONOGRAPHY; ECHOENCEPHALOGRAPHY; and ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY, to visually display echoes received from irradiated tissues.	Ultrasonic
