Analysis of blood urea nitrogen (BUN) on 160 sera by Urograph and autoanalysis revealed excellent correlation if the results of the Urograph method were reported in one of three ranges: under 20 mg. %, between 20 and 50 mg. %, and over 50 mg. %. Because of the simplicity of the Urograph method, it is suggested that this procedure should be useful for night, weekend and emergency analyses, or possibly for mass screening of BUN levels where automated equipment is not available. 相似文献

A reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method with fluorometric detection was developed for the routine determination of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP) and 4-pyridoxic acid (4-PA) in serum. Chlorite postcolumn derivatization was used to oxidize PLP to a more fluorescent carboxylic acid form. Sensitivity improved fourfold for PLP using chlorite postcolumn derivatization over traditional bisulfite postcolumn derivatization. The HPLC injection cycle was 15 min, facilitating a throughput of 60 patient samples (72 injections that included standards and quality control (QC) samples) in 18.5h. Method precision was evaluated using three serum QC pools with PLP and 4-PA concentrations of 11.5-34.8 nmol/L and 10.4-21.0 nmol/L, respectively. Within-run (n=7) repeatabilities were 0.6-1.2% for PLP and 0.9-1.8% for 4-PA. Run-to-run (n=23) reproducibilities were 3.6-6.7% for PLP and 3.7-5.6% for 4-PA. Relative detection (3sigma(0)) and quantitation (10sigma(0)) limits were 0.3 and 0.9 nmol/L, respectively, for both PLP and 4-PA using a 10-microl sample injection volume. Analytical recoveries ranged from 97 to 102%. Patient-matched serum and plasma specimens (n=25) were analyzed to evaluate specimen-type bias. Of the plasma types evaluated, heparinized plasma introduced the lowest relative bias for PLP (-5.3%) and minimal bias for 4-PA (-2.3%) compared with serum. Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) plasma showed the lowest bias for 4-PA (0.7%) but a relatively high bias for PLP (13.0%) due to a chromatographic interference. Human serum samples from a non-representative population subset (n=303) were commensurate with values published for other vitamin B(6) HPLC methods. These values gave geometric means of 42.4 nmol/L for PLP and 27.3 nmol/L for 4-PA. Medians for PLP and 4-PA were 40.1 and 21.8 nmol/L, respectively. The high sensitivity, precision, and throughput of this method, combined with its minimal serum specimen (150 microl) and sample injection (10 microl) volume requirements, make it well suited for routine clinical vitamin B(6) analysis. 相似文献

Antithrombin III (AT-III), being an alpha2-globulin, will have an electrophoretic mobility in the presence of heparin like prealbumin in agarose gels. This phenomenon was utilized to quantitate AT-III from serum and plasma by electroimmunodiffusion (EID) for 90 min agarose gels containing 75 USP units of heparin/ml gel. The method permits a rapid quantitation of AT-III from serum, citrated plasma and EDTA plasma, and a positive correlation was observed between these values and those obtained by single radial immunodiffusion (SRI). This is in contrast to quantitation of AT-III by EID in gels containing no heparin where the values for plasma showed poor correlation with those obtained by SRI. 相似文献

A liquid chromatographic-tandem mass spectrometric (LC-MS-MS) method has been developed for the determination of trenbolone in bovine urine and serum. The aim was a control of the misuse of trenbolone in food-producing animals. The procedure involved, in both cases, a preliminary solid-phase clean-up followed by a liquid-liquid extraction for urine samples after a preliminary enzymatic hydrolysis. The extracts have been directly analysed by reversed-phase LC-MS-MS in selected reaction monitoring (SRM), acquiring two diagnostic product ions from the chosen precursor [M+H](+). The procedures were validated across the concentration range of 1-1500 ng/ml. The linearity, the inter- and intra-day accuracy and precision have been determined. The procedure was specific and the accuracy values were better than 20% at the limit of quantitation of spiked samples. The limit of quantification (LOQ) and the limit of detection (LOD) were, respectively, 1 ng/ml and 350 pg/ml for urine and serum. According to the draft, SANCO/1805/2000, we determined the decision limit CCalpha and the detection capability CCbeta. The recovery values for urine ranged from 87 to 128%, and for plasma the recovery was 70+/-4%. The procedure proved to be simple and suitable for routine and confirmatory purposes such as those developed for residue studies. 相似文献

Paclitaxel is pharmaceutically formulated in a mixture of Cremophor EL and ethanol (1:1, v/v). The unbound fraction of the anticancer drug paclitaxel in plasma is dependent on both plasma protein binding and entrapment in Cremophor EL micelles. We have developed a simple and reproducible method for the quantification of the unbound paclitaxel fraction in human plasma. Human plasma was spiked with [3H]paclitaxel and [14C]glucose (unbound reference) and incubated at 37 degrees C for 30 min. Plasma ultrafiltrate was prepared by a micropartition system (MPS-1) and collected in a sample cup containing 100 microl of plasma to prevent the loss of paclitaxel due to adsorption. The radionuclides were separated after combustion of the biological samples using a sample oxidizer and the radioactivity was determined by liquid scintillation counting. The unbound fraction of paclitaxel was calculated by dividing the ratios of 3H and 14C in plasma ultrafiltrate and in plasma. The method was thoroughly validated using human plasma spiked with pharmacologically relevant concentrations of paclitaxel (10-1000 ng/ml) and Cremophor EL (0.25-2.0%). The method was precise, with a within-day precision ranging from 3.9 to 11.0% and a between-day precision ranging from 5.8 to 13.1%. In patient plasma with low serum albumin values containing 1% of Cremophor EL, the unbound fraction appeared to be significantly higher than that in plasma with normal albumin values. The determination of the unbound fraction of paclitaxel proved to be stable during a 10-week storage at -20 degrees C. Furthermore, the assay was applicable in patient samples. This assay can be used to determine the unbound fraction of paclitaxel in plasma. Moreover, its design should allow the determination of the unbound concentrations of other hydrophobic drugs. 相似文献

This paper describes the development of a simple and sensitive analytical method for the quantification of melatonin in human plasma and rabbit serum, using standard analytical equipment and on-line column enrichment without prior extraction, clean-up or derivatization. The analytical procedure was found to be accurate, precise and linear. For human plasma, the accuracy was 101% (range 89–106%), and the mean precision was 5% (range 2–9%) for all concentrations (0, 2, 10, 50 and 200 ng/ml) tested (n=6). The accuracy in rabbit serum was 101% (range 90–112%), and the mean precision was 13% (range 8–19%) for all concentrations (0, 2, 10, 50, 200 and 500 ng/ml) tested (n=6). The retention time of melatonin was about 8 min and the total recoveries were found to be approximately 65 and 85%, respectively, for human plasma and rabbit serum. The limit of detection was found to be lower than 1 ng/ml for human plasma and around 2 ng/ml for rabbit serum. The method is, therefore, found to be suitable for melatonin bioavailability studies in rabbits and presumably also in humans. 相似文献

Lipid hydroperoxides (LH) appear to be good candidates as initial biomarkers of oxidative stress. We describe an automated method to quantify it, based on a known principle: oxidation of Fe II to Fe III by lipid hydroperoxides, under acidic conditions, followed by complexation of Fe III by xylenol orange. This method requires only a 10-microl sample volume of heparinized plasma or serum. It has been carried out automatically, with two reagents, in a two-end-point mode with bichromatic detection at 570 and 700 nm. The within-run precision, measured on a low- and a high-level plasma, was 5.0+/-0.3 and 14.0+/-0.6 microM (n=25 for each series). The between-run precision (one run for 18 days), evaluated on two commercial controls, was 5.6+/-0.5 microM (CV=8.9%) and 7.9+/-0.5 microM (CV=6.3%). The recovery of known amounts of tert-butylhydroperoxide (1 and 2 microM) added to human plasma was 98%. The specificity was demonstrated by the excellent correlation of the values of 42 samples measured either directly, with a simple dilution, or after gel permeation chromatography. The reference interval determined on 21 subjects was 4.9+/-1.7 microM. This was in the upper range of previously published values but our recovery and chromatographic experiments strongly suggest that former methods have underestimated the true content of LH in human plasma. 相似文献

An analytical method was developed and validated to determine Formoterol in human serum in the range from 0.40 to 100.24 pg/mL by high performance liquid chromatography and tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) due to the lack of efficient methods to determine very low levels of Formoterol in serum and plasma. Serum was diluted by water and mixed with the internal standard (d6-Formoterol). Formoterol and internal standard were extracted using a cation-exchange solid phase column (SCX-3). After eliminating endogenous serum constituents through washing steps with water and methanol, elution took place using methanol/ammonia. After evaporation of the elution liquid the residue was redissolved and analyzed by HPLC-MS/MS with electrospray ionisation (ESI) in positive mode. A gradient between 10 mM ammonium formate and acetonitrile was used. The inter-batch precision of the calibration standards ranged from 1.55% to 9.01%. The inter-batch accuracy of the calibration standards ranged from 93.37% to 107.30%. The lower limit of quantitation (LLOQ, 0.40 pg/mL) had a precision of 19.67% and an accuracy of 96.78%. Comparable results were obtained for quality control samples. Stability in human serum was given over three freeze/thaw cycles and 2h at room temperature. Formoterol in human serum was stable for at least 6 months below -20 degrees C. This method has been used widely for quantifying Formoterol after inhalation of 9-36 microg of the drug by volunteers. A cross validation with human plasma versus serum was performed after this method was successfully validated in human serum. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to validate the measurement of glucose appearance rate using [6,6-2H2]glucose i.v. infusion in lactating dairy cows. Sample enrichments were analysed by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. Linearity (enriched solutions) and specificity (enriched plasma) were good: for enrichments ranging between 1.6 and 6.3 mol% excess, the slopes were about 1 and the ordinates at the origin were not different from zero. For a plasma enriched at 3.74 mol% excess, repeatability and long term intralaboratory reproducibility coefficients of variation were 1.31 and 1.90%, respectively. The appearance rates were calculated by two models. The values provided by the steady-state model were not different from those provided by the non-steady-state Steele model. Both models can be used because the treatment effects were similarly discriminated regardless of the model. In our experiments analysing the nutritional effects on Ra in mid-lactating cows, the precision of the method (1.90%) was not the limiting factor to detect a significant difference in Ra compared to the statistical precision obtained with the experimental scheme (4 x 4 and 5 x 5 Latin square design). We conclude that in lactating dairy cows, the measurement of glucose fluxes with this method is relevant and minimally invasive for the animals. 相似文献

A continuous-flow fluorometric procedure for the determination of 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2DG) is described. The method utilizes Technicon Autoanalyzer equipment and modules, and is based on the acid-catalyzed condensation of 3,5-diaminobenzoic acid with 2DG. The procedure permits analysis of 20 samples/h, is sensitive to concentrations of 2DG as low as 0.2 mg/100 ml, and requires sample volumes of only 0.25 ml. 2DG can be quantitatively measured in serum samples or tissue extracts without requiring deproteinization. Glucose does not interfere with the assay while 2-deoxy-D-ribose develops a fluorescence which is about 15% of that produced by the same amount of 2DG and is additive when both deoxy sugars are present together. The procedure is accurate, reproducible, and fast, and can be run continuously. 相似文献

The accuracy of two clinical assays, the enzyme-multiplied immunoassay (EMIT) and fluorescence polarization immunoassay (FPIA2), universally employed for measurement of plasma levels of methotrexate (MTX) in children administered a high dose of this drug for treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia was evaluated here. Because of its superior specificity, sensitivity, and precision, high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was selected as the reference method with which the other two procedures were compared using approximately 420 different plasma samples for method comparison. 7-Hydroxymethotrexate (7-OHMTX), the major plasma metabolite of MTX, that can be detected in plasma at relatively high concentrations for long periods following infusion of a high dose of MTX, was also quantitated by HPLC. Forty-two and 66 h after infusion, the plasma level of MTX was overestimated in 2% and 3% of the samples by the FPIA2 procedure in 5% and 31% by the EMIT assay. The overall correlation coefficients (r2) for the values obtained by FPIA2 or EMIT versus those based on HPLC were 0.989 and 0.663, respectively. The presence of 7-OHMTX exerted a highly significant influence (p=0.0007 as determined by the unpaired t-test) on MTX measurement by the EMIT assay. We conclude that the rapid automated procedures routinely used at present and in particular EMIT, suffer from cross-reactivity with metabolites of MTX. Thus, the relatively high percentage of samples in which the level of MTX is overestimated at check-points by EMIT may result in longer periods of hospitalization, higher costs and prolonged administration of elevated doses of "rescue" leucovorin with an increased risk for relapse. 相似文献

This paper describes a sensitive HPLC-electrochemical detection analytical method for determining the concentration of the intravenous anesthetic, propofol, in human or rat plasma or serum and a variety of rat tissues. Internal standard and drug are extracted from serum or plasma and other tissues with pentane. 2,6-tert.-Butylmethylphenol is used as internal standard. It includes a novel steam distillation procedure for separating the highly lipophilic propofol from skin and fat. The plasma/serum assay has a precision of 1–4% (C.V.) in the range 10 ng/ml to 1 μg/ml and permits the assay of 5 ng/ml from 0.1 ml of plasma/serum. The tissue procedure allows the estimation of 50 ng/g in 0.1 g of tissue for most of the major organs with less than 2% (C.V.) precision. This assay was used to measure propofol concentrations in plasma/serum and tissue samples in support of a project to develop a physiological pharmacokinetic model for propofol in the rat. 相似文献

A direct method has been described which makes possible a specific assay of progesterone in rat serum without extraction. Anti-progesterone serum was prepared in our laboratory by the immunization of three rabbits with 4-pregnen-3, 20-dione-3 CMO:BSA. This antiserum (Gunma OGP#1) displayed little or no cross reaction with 20 alpha-dihydroprogesterone (0.38%), pregnenolone (0.44%), 17 alpha hydroxypregnenolone (less than 0.1%), 20 beta hydroxyprogesterone (2.4%), 17 alpha hydroxyprogesterone (2.88%) or deoxycorticosterone (2.19%). The nonspecific inhibitory effect of serum was compensated for by adding progesterone-free serum to the standard curve tubes. The sensitivity of this assay was 1.1 pg/tube and serum progesterone could be measured by using as little as 1 microliter of serum. The working range of the standard curve was 1.25-2560 ng/ml. Under the conditions of this assay (1 microliter of serum per tube), interference from steroid binding proteins did not affect the sensitivity, precision or reliability of the assay. The intra-assay and inter-assay coefficients of variation were 5.5% and 8.7%, respectively, and the assay values correlated well with those obtained by the extraction method (R = 0.997, P less than 0.001). Analytical recovery indicates a close correlation between added and recovered progesterone concentrations (R = 0.992, P less than 0.001), and the recovery rate averaged 96%. Compared with the extraction method, the direct progesterone assay has the advantage of speed, precision and simplicity. The method described is particularly suitable for routine assays of progesterone in rat serum. 相似文献

Antiserum against PGE2 was raised in rabbits following immunization with prostaglandin-hen-gamma-globulin conjugate. The antiserum exhibited 14% cross reactivity with PGE1 and far less cross-reaction with heterologous prostaglandins. A microcolumn of Sephadex LH-20 was used for a partial, but sufficient separation of PGE2 from PGE1 and a complete separation from heterologous prostaglandins to ensure a specific RIA for PGE2. The precision of the method in the rage 10-500 picograms showed a coefficient of variation varying between 4 and 13%. The detection limit was 10 picograms corresponding to 15 pg/ml of PGE2 in serum. In order to demonstrate the validity of the method values obtained for non-diuretic rat renal venous serum were compared with those obtained using the isotope derivative method of Bojesen & Buckhave (1972) on the same samples. The concentrations of PGE2 obtained were 239 +/- 25 pg/ml and 250 +/- 58 pg/ml, respectively. 相似文献

Factors affecting the esterification rate of cholesterol by lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT E.C. 2.3.1.43) in native cold labelled substrates (human, rabbit, rat serum, plasma, VLDL, LDL depleted serum, rabbit intraocular fluids) repaired by use of ready-made 14C-cholesterol discs (Cholesterol kinetics LCAT-test, UVVVR, Czechoslovakia) were investigated. EDTA added to the serum during the cold incubation (18 h, 0 degrees C-4 degrees C) increased the rate of esterification due to elimination of Ca2+ ions. The similar stimulating effect was found in the presence of mercaptoethanol (ME) in the serum, while in the plasma already stimulated by EDTA no additional effect by ME could be noticed. Freezing and thawing did not affect the fractional esterification rate (FER-per cent of total serum unesterified cholesterol esterified per hour) in normolipidaemic sera, whereas in hyperlipidaemic sera, particularly those with high levels of VLDL, FER was stimulated. Esterification partially proceeded during the cold incubation of serum or plasma with 14C-cholesterol ready-to-use discs, attaining the values of about 0.3%/h and 2-6%/h, respectively, in human sera and in rabbit and rat sera. The starting level of esterification did not affect the linearity of LCAT reaction during warm incubation (30 min at 37 degrees C), neither was the absolute value of FER changed as compared with cold labelled sera with those inhibited by DTNB and reactivated by ME. Substantial LCAT activity was also detected in extremely diluted substrates--such as intraocular fluid collected from rabbits with induced uveitis or after preceding paracentesis.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Total fatty acids in plasma of neonates have been analysed as their methyl esters by gas chromatography. They were separated on a capillary column coated with a SP-2380 stationary phase. As little as 100 μl of plasma is used for the analysis. The extraction procedure was performed with dichloromethane—methanol (2:1) and fatty acids were methylated with boron trifluoride—methanol. The quantification of fatty acids is based on an internal standard method. Absolute values (μg fatty acid per 100 μl plasma) are given together with relative values (%). At a signal-to-noise ratio of 3, the detection limits for flame ionisation detection are between 0.08 to 0.51 ng. The high sensitivity and precision permits the effective determination of the fatty acids in neonate plasma. 相似文献

A sensitive and specific method for quantifying a genotoxic hydrazine, agaritine, has been developed using liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (MS). Synthetic agaritine was structurally assigned by (1)H, (13)C and two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analysis (heteronuclear multiple-bond correlation [HMBC] and heteronuclear multiple-quantum coherence [HMQC]), high-resolution fast-atom-bombardment (HR-FAB) MS. Agaritine was separated on an ODS column using 0.01% AcOH-MeOH (99:1) as an eluent with a simple solid-phase-extraction cleanup for mushroom samples and with acetonitrile and methanol deprotenization for plasma samples. There were no interference peaks in any of the mushrooms or mouse plasma samples. The recoveries of agaritine from the spiked mushroom samples and spiked mouse plasma were 60.3-114 and 74.4%, respectively. The intra-day precision values for the spiked mushrooms were 5.5 and 4.2%, and the inter-day precision values were 15.0 and 23.0%, respectively. The limit of quantification was 0.01 microg/g (in mushrooms) and 0.01 microg/ml (in plasma). A precursor ion scan confirmed that agaritine derivatives, which can exert a similar toxicity, were absent. These results indicate that this analytical method for quantifying agaritine could help to evaluate the risk of mushroom hydrazines to humans. 相似文献

An original HPLC-UV method has been developed for the simultaneous determination of the atypical antipsychotic quetiapine and the geometric isomers of the second-generation antidepressant fluvoxamine. The analytes were separated on a reversed-phase C8 column (150 mm x 4.6mm i.d., 5 microm) using a mobile phase composed of acetonitrile (30%) and a 10.5mM, pH 3.5 phosphate buffer containing 0.12% triethylamine (70%). The flow rate was 1.2 mL min(-1) and the detection wavelength was 245 nm. Sample pretreatment was carried out by an original solid-phase extraction procedure using mixed-mode cation exchange (DSC-MCAX) cartridges; only 300 microL of plasma were needed for one analysis. Citalopram was used as the internal standard. The method was validated in terms of linearity, extraction yield, precision and accuracy. Good linearity was obtained in plasma over the 5.0-160.0 ng mL(-1) concentration range for each fluvoxamine isomer and over the 2.5-400.0 ng mL(-1) concentration range for quetiapine. Extraction yield values were always higher than 93%, with precision (expressed as relative standard deviation values) better than 4.0%. The method was successfully applied to human plasma samples drawn from patients undergoing polypharmacy with the two drugs. Satisfactory accuracy values were obtained, with mean recovery higher than 94%. 相似文献

Apolipoprotein B (ApoB) is a strong predictor of cardiovascular disease, which remains the leading cause of mortality in both higher and lower income countries. Here, we adapted an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) development kit for quantitative determination of ApoB levels in serum and plasma for use with dried blood spots (DBS). After confirming the dilution linearity of the assay for DBS, we measured ApoB in 208 venous DBS samples. Then, using Passing-Bablok regression analysis and Spearman rank correlation analysis, we evaluated the correspondence in ApoB values between matched plasma and finger-prick DBS samples from 40 individuals who had ApoB values spanning the range of ApoB values observed in the 208 vDBS samples. We also evaluated assay precision and recovery, the effects of hematocrit, number of freeze-thaw cycles, and different storage temperatures on ApoB levels in DBS. There was a strong, significant correlation between plasma and DBS ApoB levels with little bias. Assay precision and recovery were within the range recommended by the U.S. government’s industry guidelines for bioanalytical assay validation. The assay was not affected by the DBS matrix or physiological hematocrit levels. This DBS-based ELISA assay will facilitate population-scale assessment of cardiovascular risk in previously unexplored populations. 相似文献
