1 Comparison of Full Scan MS2 and MS3 Linear Ion Trap Approaches for Quantitation of Vitamin D Julie A. Horner 1, Marta Kozak 1, Subodh Nimkar 1, and August A. Specht 1 1 Thermo Fisher Scientific, San Jose, CA
2 Overview Purpose: Comparison of ion trap full scan methods for quantitation of 25-OH Vitamin D2 and D3 in human plasma samples. Methods: Liquid-liquid extraction followed by LC-MS2 or LC-MS3 analysis of fresh plasma samples. Results: Both methods are acceptable for Vitamin D quantitation. Full scan MS2 provides superior sensitivity whereas full scan MS3 provides superior selectivity. Introduction There has been a growing interest in Vitamin D and its role in human metabolism. Vitamin D is metabolized to 25-OH D in the liver. Total vitamin D is best determined by measuring total 25-hydroxyvitamin D (D 2 and D 3 ) in serum because the half-life of 25- OH D is about three weeks with serum concentrations of 1 5. Vitamin D supplementation in both food and tablets comes in both the D 2 and D 3 forms, making it imperative to measure 25-OH D 2 and 25-OH D 3. Although optimal serum concentrations of total 25-OH D are generally agreed to be 3, there is considerable discussion on the serum concentration of 25-OH D considered to be inadequate for bone and overall health, but < is generally regarded as deficient. Serum concentrations >1 are generally regarded as potentially toxic. We have developed dual pressure linear ion trap methods based on Full Scan MS2 and Full Scan MS3 for maximum sensitivity and selectivity and therefore precision and accuracy in measurement of 25-OH and D3. Methods Sample Preparation Plasma samples were prepared at a university clinical laboratory using the liquid-liquid extraction procedure described below: ul each sample is treated with ul of.1 M NaOH, vortexed and left at room temperature for 15 minutes ul of internal standard is added and vortexed 3. 2 ml of n-heptane is added and vortexed 1 minute. 4. The mixture is centrifuged at 15 rpm for 4 minutes. 5. The tubes are placed in a dry ice:acetone bath until the aqueous layer freezes; the top layer is then discarded. 6. The remainder is dried under nitrogen at 37 C and reconstituted with 1 ul of : mobile phase. Liquid Chromatography Liquid-liquid extracted plasma samples were injected using a Thermo Scientific Accela Open AS and separated using a reversed-phase gradient delivered by a Thermo Scientific Accela 125 uhplc pump. The 5 minute method uses a 2.1x5 mm Phenomenex Luna c18 column and a flow rate of ul/min. Both gradient and column were duplicated from a clinical laboratory. Mass Spectrometry Atmospheric pressure chemical ionization source conditions were optimized for best signal to noise. Mass spectrometric detection on a dual pressure linear ion trap was achieved using 3 Full Scan MS3 or MS2 scan events for the water loss of 25-OH, 25-OH and the internal standard 25- OH -d6.. Data Analysis All data were processed using Thermo Scientific LC Quan Quantitation software in plasma 1.5 in plasma 2 Comparison of Full Scan MS2 and MS3 Linear Ion Trap Approaches for Quantitation of Vitamin D
3 Results Challenges in Vitamin D Analysis Vitamin D is typically not found free in serum samples due to a high probability of protein binding and thus poses a challenge for sensitive and reproducible high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Additionally, various serum sample matrix constituents are found to cause ion suppression that reduces accuracy and reproducibility during real sample analyses. This ion suppression can be especially troublesome with rapid LC mass spectrometry (MS) methods where insufficient resolution can be observed between matrix contaminants and analyte peaks. 25-OH 25-OH C:\j.horner\...\Raw files\p-46 8/4/11 9:51:3 Relative Abundance m/z Vitamin D Quantitation Using Full Scan MS2 In addition, Vitamins D2 and D3 are fairly linear structures resulting in multiple fragmentation channels and distributed ion current in MS2 experiments. The full scan MS2 total and base peak extracted ion currents for 25-OH, 25-OH Vitamin D3 and the internal standard shown in Figures 1 a and b respectively show an improvement in S/N with approximately five-fold difference in intensity.

Using the total ion current of the full scan MS2 experiment, even with a restricted product ion mass scan range, results in significant interference FIGURE 3.

There is enough material for each quality control (4 total), standard (5 total) and real sample (9 total) to be injected just once. Our clinical laboratory collaborators carry out the analysis and send the same sample set to us for comparison. Figure 3 shows the standard curve linearity and accuracy for both 25-OH and 25-OH done using our full scan MS2 method. The analysis of Vitamin D in fresh human plasma samples was successfully carried out using ion trap based full scan MS2; both accuracy and limits of quantification are within desired specifications.

Even when the SRM experiment is used, there can be interference in a given transition particularly in a complex sample matrix such as plasma. 4 Comparison of Full Scan MS2 and MS3 Linear Ion Trap Approaches for Quantitation of Vitamin D

Immediately of note is that the TIC in the MS3 experiment is sufficiently selective to use for quantitation, even at the lowest level of detection, 1 (bottom trace Figure 4a) although for this study we use the base peak extracted ion chromatogram (bottom trace Figure 4b). Also, signall to noise ratios for all components are within a factor of two of those obtained in the full scan MS2 experiment. The combination of sensitivity and selectivity gives quantification results for 25-OH and D3 (Figure 5) and accuracies comparable to those seen in the full scan MS2 experiment (Figure 2) FIGURE 5.

Full Scan MS2 provides higher sensitivity for this analysis, full scan MS3 provides better selectivity. Ion trap based methods can be used for quantitation of a small number of compounds in a complex matrix. These methods will be used to determine suitability for quantitation in singly crashed plasma rather than LLE plasma samples.
