Short Abstract

We evaluated the performance of Ultra-Performance Liquid Chromatography Tandem Mass Spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) method to measure serum 3-epi-25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (epi-25(OH)D3), 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25(OH)D3) and 25-hydroxyvitamin D2 (25(OH)D2). Using Kinetex XB-C18 column (Phenomenex, USA) and isocratic methanol/water (77.5/22.5, v/v) flowing at 0.25 mL/min, run time was 13 minutes/sample. TQD triple quadrupole mass spectrometer (Waters, USA) with MRM transitions, MSMS Vitamin D kit (PerkinElmer, Finland) and PTAD derivatization method were used. Intra- and inter-run precisions were less than 15 %. The carryover was 0.10%, -0.27% and 0.10%, respectively. There was no ion suppression. The linearity was good with R2>0.9999. The peak of epi-25(OH)D3 was clearly separated from that of 25(OH)D3 in the XIC. The performance of UPLC-MS/MS for epi-25(OH)D3, 25(OH)D3, and 25(OH)D2 was acceptable.

Long Abstract

Introduction: We evaluated the performance of Ultra-Performance Liquid Chromatography Tandem Mass Spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) method to measure serum 3-epi-25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (epi-25(OH)D3), 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25(OH)D3) and 25-hydroxyvitamin D2 (25(OH)D2).

Methods: Using Kinetex XB-C18 column (Phenomenex, USA) and isocratic methanol/water (77.5/22.5, v/v) with 0.025 % (v/v) HPLC solvent additive flowing at 0.25 mL/min, run time was 13 minutes per sample. TQD triple quadrupole mass spectrometer (Waters, USA) in the ESI positive ion mode with multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) transitions using MSMS Vitamin D kit (PerkinElmer, Finland) was used to evaluate the precision, carryover, ion suppression and linearity. We performed 4-phenyl-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione (PTAD) derivatization method for sample preparation.

Results: Intra- and inter-run precisions were between 1.23 and 13.28 % and, between 1.02 and 10.08 %, respectively. The carryover was 0.10%, -0.27% and 0.10%, respectively. There was no ion suppression. The calibration curve showed good linearity from calibrator level 1 (4.7 ng/mL) to calibrator level 6 (150 ng/mL) with R2>0.9999. The peak of epi-25(OH)D3 was clearly separated from that of 25(OH)D3 in the extracted ion chromatogram.

Conclusions: The epi-25(OH)D3 was clearly separated from 25(OH)D3 and the performance of UPLC-MS/MS assay for epi-25(OH)D3, 25(OH)D3, and 25(OH)D2 was acceptable.
