Abstract

A validated, simple and sensitive HPLC method was developed for the simultaneous determination of lipoperoxidation relevant reactive aldehydes: glyoxal (GO), acrolein (ACR), malondialdehyde (MDA), and 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE) in human serum. The studied aldehydes were reacted with 2,2′-furil to form fluorescent difurylimidazole derivatives that were separated on a C18 column using gradient elution and fluorescence detection at excitation and emission wavelengths of 250 and 355nm, respectively. The method showed good linearity over the concentration ranges of 0.100–5.00, 0.200–10.0, 0.200–40.0, and 0.400–10.0nmol/mL for GO, ACR, HNE, and MDA, respectively, with detection limits ranging from 0.030 to 0.11nmol/mL. The percentage RSD of intraday and interday precision did not exceed 5.0 and 6.2%, respectively, and the accuracy (%found) ranged from 95.5 to 103%. The proposed method was applied for monitoring the four aldehydes in sera of healthy, diabetic, and rheumatic human subjects with simple pretreatment steps and without interference from endogenous components. By virtue of its high sensitivity and accuracy, our method enabled detection of differences between analytes concentrations in sera of human subjects under different clinical conditions.
