Clinical relevance

This assay allows the quantitative determination of 25-hydroxycholecalciferol (25-OH-vitamin D3) and 25-hydroxyergocalciferol (25-OH-vitamin D2) in human plasma or serum samples.

It is intended to be used for screening and/or monitoring of 25-OH-vitamin D3/D2 levels where indicated:

  • in patients with suspected vitamin D deficiency,
  • in patients with suspected vitamin D insufficiency, or
  • in patients with suspected vitamin D excess, and/or
  • in patients under vitamin D supplementation therapy.

The test kit is further intended to be used as an aid to diagnosis of diseases for which determination of vitamin D levels is indicated.

 

Assay characteristics

Manual sample preparation is limited to simple and effective protein precipitation. A trap column concentrates the analytes and separates interfering substances. A two-position-six-port-valve connects the trap column to an HPLC column where the chromatographic separation takes place. The use of atmospheric pressure chemical ionisation (APCI) and a deuterated internal standard assures precision and robustness and minimises ion suppression effects.

This kit does not separate 3-epi-25-OH-vitamin D3 and 3-epi-25-OH-vitamin D2 from 25-OH-vitamin D3 and 25-OH-vitamin D2, respectively, and should therefore only be used to analyse samples that contain none or just negligible amounts of these metabolites.
We recommend the use of the assay MassChrom® 25-OH-Vitamin D3/D2 and 3-epi-25-OH-Vitamin D3 in Serum/Plasma (order no. 62062) for chromatographic separation of the diastereomers and quantitation of 3-epi-25-OH-vitamin D3 to ensure correct assessment of the vitamin D status in patient samples that might contain 3-epi-25-OH-vitamin D3/D2.

Detailed performance evaluation data for this assay can be found in Appendices II and III of the instruction manual.
