Popis: | The occurrence of retinoic acid (vitamin A acid) as a normal constituent of the vitamin A reserve from the body is demonstrated. Improved methodologies based on selected peak monitoring (spm) and high-performance liquid chromatography (hplc) are used for the detection of retinoic acid in EDTA-plasma. After extensive cleanup by double-phase extraction and chromatography on Sephadex LH-20, retinoic acid is determined as its methyl derivative by spm. A different approach using double-phase extraction combined with a preextraction step and hplc is used to confirm the findings of the spm experiments. Both techniques proved the presence of retinoic acid in human plasma at a concentration of 1 to 3 ng/ml. |
