Simultaneous Determination of Retinoic Acid, Retinol, and Retinyl Palmitate in Ram Plasma by Liquid Chromatography
A liquid chromatographic method is described for the simultaneous determination of retinoic acid, retinol, and retinyl palmitate in ram plasma. Samples of 0.2 mL are extracted with 2-propanol-dichloromethane, the extracts are centrifuged, the supernatants are collected, evaporated, reconstituted in...

Summary: | A liquid chromatographic method is described for the simultaneous determination of retinoic acid, retinol, and retinyl palmitate in ram plasma. Samples of 0.2 mL are extracted with 2-propanol-dichloromethane, the extracts are centrifuged, the supernatants are collected, evaporated, reconstituted in mobile phase, and analyzed on a C

column using two consecutive isocratic elutions with methanol tetrahydrofuran-acetate buffer. Detection is performed at 350 and 325 nm using wavelength change during the run. The method exhibits analytical characteristics well within acceptable limits. Overall recoveries were 73.7% for retinoic acid, 90.2% for retinol, and 87.7% for retinyl palmitate. Precision values, expressed as % relative standard deviation, were in the range of 1.16-6.18%, while limits of detection were in the range of 0.3-10.0 ng/mL for all analytes. |
