Sensitive determination of cholesterol and its metabolic steroid hormones by UHPLC-MS/MS via derivatization coupled with dual ultrasonic-assisted dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction.
Rapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry : RCM 2016 August
RATIONALE: Quantitative analysis of cholesterol and its metabolic steroid hormones plays a vital role in diagnosing endocrine disorders and understanding disease progression, as well as in clinical medicine studies. Because of their extremely low abundance in body fluids, it remains a challenging task to develop a sensitive detection method.
METHODS: A hyphenated technique of dual ultrasonic-assisted dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (dual-UADLLME) coupled with microwave-assisted derivatization (MAD) was proposed for cleansing, enrichment and sensitivity enhancement. 4'-Carboxy-substituted rosamine (CSR) was synthesized and used as derivatization reagent. An ultra-high performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS) method was developed for determination of cholesterol and its metabolic steroid hormones in the multiple reaction monitoring mode.
RESULTS: Parameters of dual-UADLLME, MAD and UHPLC-MS/MS were all optimized. Satisfactory linearity, recovery, repeatability, accuracy and precision, absence of matrix effect and extremely low limits of detection (LODs, 0.08-0.15 pg mL(-1) ) were achieved.
CONCLUSIONS: Through the combination of dual-UADLLME and MAD, a determination method for cholesterol and its metabolic steroid hormones in human plasma, serum and urine samples was developed and validated with high sensitivity, selectivity, accuracy and perfect matrix effect results.
