摘要
This invention relates to a method and apparatus or kit for extracting major metabolites of vitamin D from human plasma or serum. More particularly, the invention provides for the extraction from human plasma or serum samples comprising vitamin D metabolites such as 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D3, 25-hydroxy vitamin D2, and D3 from protein binding, removal of protein and phospholipids, and isolation of the metabolites using a combination of ion-exchange and Lewis acid mechanisms without the requirement to acidify the samples. The method and apparatus of the invention comprise a cartridge or plurality of cartridges comprising at least one protein crash frit, a strong cation exchanged sorbent, and an acidified alumina sorbent to provide higher recoveries of vitamin D metabolites than existing phospholipid depletion plate techniques. Accurately quantifying 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D3 is useful in differential diagnosis of vitamin D-related diseases and for monitoring vitamin D therapy in patients with chronic renal disease.
