Abstract:Nonaqueous CE (NACE) methodology was developed for the separation and determination of phosphatidylethanol (Peth), a new biomarker of ethanol intake. Peth is an abnormal phospholipid formed in cell membranes only in the presence of ethanol, via the transphosphatidylation reaction of phospholipase D. The NACE separation medium consisted of 80 mM ammonium acetate in 50% ACN, 33% 2-propanol, 12% hexane and 5% methanol. A stacking effect was obtained by reducing the concentration of ammonium acetate in the separat… Show more
“…The most used extraction technique is a liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) with hexane [5][6][7][11][12][13][14][15][16][17] (or heptane [8]) after stepwise addition of blood to isopropanol and the internal standard (IS) solution. Some methods added water [6], borate buffer pH 9 [5] or sodium acetate buffer pH 5 [15] to dilute the blood.…”

“…Quantification limits (LLOQ) obtained with these methods ranged between 100-500 ng/mL [4,11], analysing 250 to 300 µL of whole blood. PEths have also been analysed with non-aqueous capillary electrophoresis (CE) coupled to UV [13] detection. Both HPLC-ELSD and CE-UV [13] methods measure the total amount of PEths.…”

“…PEths have also been analysed with non-aqueous capillary electrophoresis (CE) coupled to UV [13] detection. Both HPLC-ELSD and CE-UV [13] methods measure the total amount of PEths. However, LC methods coupled to MS/MS detection allow to obtain much lower LLOQs (between 0.7 and 83 ng/mL, based on the analysis of between 100 and 300 µL of whole blood) and are able to identify and quantify individual molecular species [6-8, 15, 18-20].…”

“…Current analytical methods for PEth based on HPLC (19,20 ) and CE (21 ), and any immunoassay targeting the head group (22 ), measure the sum of all PEth species. Measurement of individual species is feasible by LC-MS (18,28 ), depending on the variable length and number of unsaturated bonds of the fatty acid chains.…”
BACKGROUND:The alcohol biomarker phosphatidylethanol (PEth) comprises a group of ethanolderived phospholipids formed from phosphatidylcholine by phospholipase D. The PEth molecular species have a common phosphoethanol head group onto which 2 fatty acid moieties are attached. We developed an electrospray ionization (ESI) LC-MS method for qualitative and quantitative measurement of different PEth species in human blood.
Phospholipids of in vitro oxidized human low-density lipoproteins (LDL) were separated by two different solid-phase extraction (SPE) methods. One of the two methods was designed to test the effects of gradient elution. This SPE method isolated more phospholipids from in vitro oxidized LDL than the other one according to the results of liquid chromatography and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (LC ESI-MS) analysis. A micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography (MEKC) method was also used to analyze phospholipids separated by SPE. The results of MEKC and LC ESI-MS were consistent for the major phospholipid classes, including PC, lysoPC, PE, PI and PS. The MEKC profiles showed significant differences for native and oxidized LDL phospholipids. Therefore, the unique combination of SPE and MEKC methods showed dramatic distinctions between native and in vitro oxidized human LDL phospholipids. The combination also shows great potential for rapid analysis of in vivo oxidized human LDL phospholipids in the future.
