High-pressure liquid chromatographic determination of vitamin D3 in resins, oils, dry concentrates, and dry concentrates containing vitamin A. 1976

H Hofsass, and A Grant, and N J Alicino, and S B Greenbaum

A high-pressur liquid chromatographic (HPLC) procedure has been developed for the determination of vitamin D3 in resins, oils, dry concentrates, and dry concentrates containing vitamin A. Specificity of the method for vitamin D3 in the presence of isomers and other related constituents was shown by ultimate recovery of the vitamin D3 and the individual constituents and their characterization by other methods such as ultraviolet spectrophotometry. Precision and accuracy are within 2%, and as many as 20 determinations may be completed in a working day. Excellent agreement with the official AOAC biological assay was found. A comparison of the response of isomers of vitamin D3 by the HPLC method vs. other instrumental and chemical procedures shows HPLC to be the most specific method for determining the bioactive isomers.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007536 Isomerism The phenomenon whereby certain chemical compounds have structures that are different although the compounds possess the same elemental composition. (From McGraw-Hill Dictionary of Scientific and Technical Terms, 5th ed) Isomerisms
D009821 Oils Unctuous combustible substances that are liquid or easily liquefiable on warming, and are soluble in ether but insoluble in water. Such substances, depending on their origin, are classified as animal, mineral, or vegetable oils. Depending on their behavior on heating, they are volatile or fixed. (Dorland, 28th ed)
D012116 Resins, Plant Flammable, amorphous, vegetable products of secretion or disintegration, usually formed in special cavities of plants. They are generally insoluble in water and soluble in alcohol, carbon tetrachloride, ether, or volatile oils. They are fusible and have a conchoidal fracture. They are the oxidation or polymerization products of the terpenes, and are mixtures of aromatic acids and esters. Most are soft and sticky, but harden after exposure to cold. (From Grant & Hackh's Chemical Dictionary, 5th ed & Dorland, 28th ed) Plant Resins
D002621 Chemistry A basic science concerned with the composition, structure, and properties of matter; and the reactions that occur between substances and the associated energy exchange.
