1 Vitamin Testing APPLICATIONS GUIDE

2 Vitamins play an essential role in human health and wellness. While essential, many vitamins cannot be synthesized within the body and must be obtained externally, most commonly from food. Due to poverty, lack of awareness, a person s health, and other factors, many people do not have healthy levels of vitamins in their body and suffer physical and cognitive consequences as a result. Phenomenex strives to continually improve the field of vitamin research testing by offering solutions that improve medical care and increase lab efficiency. Our goal is provide solutions that are: Accurate High-Throughput Reproducible Low Cost 2 For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures. Phenomenex 213 Inc. All rights reserved.

4 Vitamin B 1 from Whole Blood: Thiamine Diphosphate (TDP) Thiamine Diphosphate (TDP) concentration is a useful index for determining thiamine deficiency. Samples are commonly obtained from whole blood because approximately 9 % of total thiamine in blood is in the red blood cells. Deficiency can lead to diseases such as Beriberi and optic neuropathy.

12 25-OH-Vitamin D 2 and D 3 Vitamin D is recognized as an essential nutrient for intestinal absorption of calcium and phosphate and for promoting bone resorption and formation. Deficiency can lead to bone diseases such as rickets and osteomalacia. Vitamin D levels are measured by the total serum concentrations of the two common forms of 25-OH-Vitamin D, which are 25-OH D 2 and 25-OH D 3. H Method Highlights Customer-submitted patient sample run on a multi-channel system HO Vitamin D 2 ergocalciferol 4-5 µl injection volume Sample Preparation 1. Add: 5 µl of precipitating reagent containing internal standard to a 1.5 ml centrifuge tube. 2. Pipette: 1 µl of serum into a centrifuge tube. 3. Vortex: 2 3 seconds. 4. Inspect: each tube to ensure no unmixed sample remains in the bottom of the tube. i. A homogeneous mixture is critical. ii. 5. Centrifuge: 15 minutes at 13, rpm. If unmixed sample remains at the bottom of the tube, dislodge by inverting and tapping, then re-vortex. 6. Transfer: supernatant into sample vial without disturbing the pellet. Vitamin D 3 cholecalciferol TIP: Consider Impact for high-throughput protein precipitation. See 12

14 25-OH-Vitamin D 3 and 3-epi-25-OH-Vitamin D 3 Vitamin D (Ergocalciferol, D 2 and Cholecalciferol, D 3 ) has been under intense investigations and its beneficial health effects have been associated with various treatments from treating bone deficiency to a potent anticancer agent. However, isomerization of monohydroxy Vitamin D produces 3-epi (conversion of a-oh to ß-OH), a diasteromeric form. There is some ambiguity as to the clinical significance of the 3-epi isomer in general population and is currently under investigation.
