Streamlined F2-isoprostane analysis in plasma and urine with high-performance liquid chromatography and gas chromatography/mass spectroscopy

F2-Isoprostanes in plasma and urine are generally determined by labor-intensive methods requiring sample purification by solid-phase extraction and thin-layer chromatography (TLC). A streamlined and more sensitive method for the measurement of esterified plasma F2-isoprostanes was developed by replacing these steps with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) using an amino column with a hexane/2-propanol gradient. Pentafluorobenzyl esters of F2-isoprostanes were prepared and purified by HPLC, silylated, and then analyzed by gas chromatography (GC) with negative chemical ionization mass spectroscopy (NCI-MS). This method permits analysis with lower plasma volumes (100 microL) and greater sensitivity (to 10 pg; allowing detection to 50 pg/mL) than provided by other methods. Urinary F2-isoprostanes can also be efficiently quantified by this method, with 8-iso-PGF2alpha being identified as a major isomer. With this procedure, esterified plasma F2-isoprostanes were found to be 8.3-fold higher in an end-stage renal failure patient on hemodialysis and urinary 8-iso-PGF2alpha was 7.1-fold higher in a cigarette smoker than respective control subjects. This method, particularly the substitution of the TLC step common to other methods with HPLC, results in a more sensitive and reproducible assay.     

Immunochemical detection of ochratoxin A in black Aspergillus strains

One hundred and fifty-seven strains belonging to Aspergillus section Nigri were tested for ochratoxin A production using three different methods: a relatively new immunochemical method based on an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), thin-layer chromatography (TLC) and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The monoclonal antibody-based ELISA technique was successfully used to screen for low levels of ochratoxin A in the black Aspergilli without concentrating the culture filtrates. The results were confirmed by TLC and HPLC analysis and chemical derivatization. These latter methods required concentrated filtrates. Ochratoxin A was detected in the culture filtrates of five of the 12 A. carbonarius strains, none of the 45 A.japonicus strains and three of the 100 isolates in the A. niger aggregate (A. foetidus, A. awamori and A. niger).Abbreviations ELISA enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay - HPLC high-performance liquid chromatography - OA ochratoxin A - TLC thin-layer chromatography     

Direct analysis of lipids on thin layer plates by matrix-assisted secondary ion mass spectrometry

A simple and rapid method for the analysis of lipids on a thin layer chromatography (TLC) plate by matrix-assisted secondary ion mass spectrometry (SI-MS) is reported. Analysis was performed without elution of the sample from the TLC plate. Mass spectra obtained by this method are free from interference due to the TLC plate absorbent and reagents used for the detection of the spots. About 1 micrograms of lipids applied on a TLC plate can be analyzed by this method. On scanning the plate, mass chromatograms of each lipid were obtained based on its migration distance along the plate.     

7,7,8,8-Tetracyanoquinodimethane as a new derivatization reagent for high-performance liquid chromatography and thin-layer chromatography: rapid screening of plasma for some antidepressants

Using 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ) as a new derivatization reagent for HPLC and TLC, novel methods are described to detect secondary amine-bearing antidepressants (paroxetine, desipramine, fluoxetine, nortriptyline, maprotiline). The HPLC method is sensitive enough to detect these drugs in plasma at therapeutic levels whereas the latter has potential to detect them in overdose or forensic cases. The methods are based on purple chromogens formed by the displacement reaction of the drugs with TCNQ. The resulting chromogens are directly separated by either reversed-phase HPLC on a C(18) column or TLC on silicagel plates. For HPLC, acetonitrile-water (60:40) was used as mobile phase, with detection at 567 nm and separation in 40 min. For TLC, three developing solvent systems were used. By HPLC, 36 ng ml(-1) spiked plasma concentration of the drugs gave easily detectable signals whereas by TLC, detection limits varied mostly between 240 and 480 ng ml(-1). The HPLC method was applied to real plasma samples. The methods described are simple and very selective; some metabolites of these antidepressants and a vast number of drugs do not interfere with detection.     

Analysis of oligosaccharides by on-line high-performance liquid chromatography and ion-spray mass spectrometry.

Oligosaccharides were analyzed by a combination of high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and mass spectrometry (MS). First, oligosaccharides labeled with 2-aminopyridine were studied to see if they could be analyzed by MS under the conditions used for separation by HPLC. Pyridylamino (PA)-oligosaccharides could be analyzed under these conditions, although the mass spectra were affected. Then, liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry was used to analyze a PA-oligosaccharide mixture derived from human immunoglobulin G. The PA-oligosaccharides were separated on a reversed-phase column and mass-analyzed directly. The observed molecular weights were close to or identical to those expected from the structures, which were estimated from the elution position on HPLC. This method is rapid and simple, as the mass spectrometer can give the accurate molecular weight of each PA-oligosaccharide in one chromatography run, even if the HPLC separation is incomplete. This method can be used to extend the so-called two-dimensional mapping of PA-oligosaccharides. The structure can be studied in greater detail by tandem MS.     

Analysis of Fusarium toxins in maize and wheat using thin layer chromatography

Thin layer chromatography (TLC) methods for identifying and quantifying deoxynivalenol (DON), fumonisin B1 (FB1) and zearalenone in grain samples were compared to immunoassay (ELISA) and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) methods to determine the reliability of the less expensive TLC. There was a very good agreement between levels of DON measured by TLC and competitive-direct ELISA, and between levels of fumonisin B1 measured by TLC and HPLC, over a wide range of concentrations. Correlation coefficients (Pearson's) were 0.978, 0.914 and 0.953 for DON in maize, DON in wheat and FB1 in maize respectively. A lower correlation coefficient (r = 0.672) was obtained when zearalenone was quantified by TLC and HPLC. Possible reasons for this are discussed. A cost comparison of the various methods revealed that TLC was the least expensive for sample analysis. It is recommended that researchers choose which analytical method to use based upon individual considerations of cost and precision.
