Abstract

A methodology has been developed and validated for quantifying 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) in both commercial DNA and DNA isolated from livers of male Sprague-Dawley rats by liquid chromatography/positive atmospheric pressure photoionization tandem mass spectrometry. The analytical method conditions, including conditions for stabilizing 8-OHdG during complex nuclease P1 enzymatic digestion, were also evaluated. The limit of detection for 8-OHdG was 1.0 ng/mL (17.6 fmol on-column), and the linearity of the calibration curve was greater than 0.998 from 1.0 to 500 ng/mL. The intraday assay precision relative standard deviation (RSD) value for quality control (QC) samples was < or =5.59% with accuracies ranging from 91.84 to 117.61%. The interday assay precision (RSD) value was < or =1.76% with accuracies ranging from 91.84 to 116.67%. This method, combined with the LC/UV analysis of deoxyguanosine (dG), was used for determination of the levels of 8-OHdG/10(6) dG in DNA nuclease P1 enzymatic hydrolysates from both commercial DNA and rat liver DNA.
