Summary

This study developed a solid-phase extraction method for measuring malondialdehyde (MDA), a marker of lipid peroxidation. The method accurately quantified MDA in blood plasma, platelets, and erythrocyte membranes, revealing elevated levels in beta-thalassemia patients.

Area of Science:

  • Biochemistry
  • Analytical Chemistry
  • Clinical Diagnostics

Background:

  • Malondialdehyde (MDA) is a key biomarker for lipid peroxidation, crucial in biological, medical, and food industry contexts.
  • Accurate quantification of MDA is essential for assessing oxidative stress and related pathologies.
  • Existing methods for MDA analysis require efficient sample preparation techniques.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and validate a solid-phase extraction (SPE) method for malondialdehyde (MDA) quantification.
  • To apply the developed SPE-HPLC-fluorescence detection method to various biological samples.
  • To assess MDA levels in healthy donors, a beta-thalassemia patient, and platelet concentrates during storage.

Main Methods:

  • Developed a solid-phase extraction (SPE) protocol using LiChrolut C18ec cartridges and methanol elution.

  • Sample pretreatment involved deproteinization with acetonitrile and reaction with 2-thiobarbituric acid (TBA).
  • Analyzed MDA using RP-HPLC with fluorescence detection (Ex: 514 nm, Em: 556 nm).

    • Main Results:

    • Established mean MDA concentrations in healthy donor plasma (0.37 ± 0.25 μmol/L) and erythrocyte membranes (8.3 ± 4.1 pmol/μg protein).
    • Observed significantly elevated plasma MDA (1.22 μmol/L) and membrane MDA (21.05 pmol/μg protein) in a severe beta-thalassemia patient.
    • Quantified MDA in platelet concentrates, showing slight increases during storage (0.46 ± 0.18 μmol/L on day 1 to 0.55 ± 0.44 μmol/L on day 5).

    Conclusions:

    • The developed SPE-based method provides a reliable approach for MDA quantification in diverse biological matrices.
    • The findings highlight the utility of MDA as a biomarker for oxidative stress in conditions like beta-thalassemia.
    • The method is suitable for routine clinical and research applications requiring accurate MDA measurements.
