This study introduces a sensitive liquid chromatography method for detecting estrogens in biological samples. The new procedure uses fluorescence detection and requires minimal sample volume for accurate quantification.

Area of Science:

  • Analytical Chemistry
  • Biochemistry
  • Endocrinology

Background:

  • Estrogen quantification in biological materials is crucial for various diagnostic and research applications.
  • Existing methods may require large sample volumes or lack sufficient sensitivity.
  • Development of sensitive and efficient analytical techniques for estrogen determination is ongoing.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and validate a highly sensitive liquid chromatography method for the determination of estrogens.
  • To enable accurate quantification of estrogens using smaller biological sample volumes.
  • To improve the detection limits for key estrogenic compounds.

Main Methods:

  • Precolumn derivatization of estrogens using 5-dimethylaminonaphthalene-1-sulfonylchloride (dansyl chloride).

  • Separation via reversed-phase, C-18 liquid chromatography with a methanol/water/acetic acid mobile phase.
  • Detection using fluorescence detection at excitation/emission wavelengths of 350/540 nm.
  • Main Results:

    • Achieved high sensitivity, detecting less than 400 pg of estriol (equivalent to ~25 ng before derivatization).
    • Demonstrated excellent linearity for dansylated estriol, estrone, and estradiol below 100 µg/sample.
    • Reported within-run precision better than 5% for the complete extraction and derivatization process.
    • Completed chromatographic analysis within 10 minutes for target estrogens.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed liquid chromatography procedure offers enhanced sensitivity for estrogen analysis in biological samples.
    • The method's high sensitivity and efficiency make it suitable for applications requiring small sample volumes.
    • This technique provides a reliable and rapid approach for quantifying key estrogens like estriol, estrone, and estradiol.
