    This study presents a new method for measuring 25-hydroxyvitamin D in serum. The assay is sensitive, precise, and suitable for determining vitamin D levels in various patient groups.

    Area of Science:

    • Biochemistry
    • Clinical Chemistry
    • Endocrinology

    Background:

    • Accurate measurement of 25-hydroxyvitamin D is crucial for diagnosing vitamin D deficiency and related bone disorders.
    • Existing methods may suffer from interference, impacting reliability.
    • A robust and sensitive assay is needed for clinical applications.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop and validate a novel method for quantifying 25-hydroxyvitamin D in human serum.
    • To ensure the assay is sensitive, precise, and minimizes interference from other substances.
    • To apply the method for determining serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels in normal and osteomalacic individuals.

    Main Methods:

    • Serum samples were denatured using ethanol.
    • Extracts were purified via silicic acid chromatography to remove interfering compounds.

  • 25-hydroxyvitamin D was quantified using sequential saturation analysis in a Tris-HCl buffer with Triton X-405 surfactant.
  • Unpurified normal human serum served as the binder in the assay.

    • Main Results:

    • The developed method demonstrated high sensitivity and precision.
    • A linear dose-response curve was observed.
    • The assay yielded high count rates, allowing the use of low specific activity 25-hydroxyvitamin D if needed.
    • Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels were successfully determined in both normal and osteomalacic subjects.

    Conclusions:

    • The described method provides a reliable and sensitive means for measuring serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D.
    • The assay's robustness makes it suitable for clinical use in diagnosing vitamin D status.
    • This method can aid in the assessment of bone health and related metabolic conditions.
