This study introduces a streamlined solid-phase extraction method for isolating retinol isotopomers from human plasma. The technique enhances efficiency for vitamin A stable isotope dilution studies, offering comparable purity to HPLC with increased sample throughput.

Area of Science:

  • Biochemistry
  • Analytical Chemistry
  • Nutrition Science

Background:

  • Accurate quantification of vitamin A (retinol) is crucial for nutritional studies.
  • Stable isotope dilution (SID) methods are valuable for precise nutrient measurements.
  • Traditional methods for retinol isolation can be time-consuming and require specialized equipment.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and validate a solid-phase extraction (SPE) method for isolating retinol isotopomers from human plasma.
  • To assess the efficiency, recovery, and purity of the SPE method compared to existing techniques.
  • To enable parallel processing of large sample numbers for vitamin A SID studies.

Main Methods:

  • Application of SPE using C18 and aminopropyl silica-based sorbents for retinol isolation from plasma.

  • Analysis of isolated isotopomers using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS).
  • Evaluation of overall retinol recovery and purity against a high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method.

    • Main Results:

    • The SPE method achieved an overall retinol recovery of 47.2% +/- 1.8%.
    • Isolated retinol purity was comparable to that obtained via a single HPLC step.
    • The method allows for the preparation of 32 samples per day by a single analyst.

    Conclusions:

    • SPE offers an efficient and effective alternative for retinol isotopomer isolation from human plasma.
    • This method simplifies sample preparation, reducing equipment and technical skill requirements.
    • The SPE technique is suitable for field applications and large-scale vitamin A SID studies.
