title: A fast and versatile method for extraction and quantitation of long-chain acyl-CoA esters from tissue: content of individual long-chain acyl-CoA esters in various tissues from fed rat.
abstract: A method for the extraction of acyl-CoA esters from tissue, and their subsequent analysis by HPLC is described. The lipids are removed by a two-phase extraction in a chloroform/methanol/water system. The long-chain acyl-CoA esters are extracted using methanol and a high salt concentration (2 M ammonium acetate). Reextraction of the dry residue after evaporation of extraction solvent results in low overall recoveries (20%). By adding 1 mg/ml acyl-CoA-binding protein to the extraction solvent the overall recovery was increased to 55%. The method is easy and fast to perform and is thereby suitable for analysis of a large number of samples. The advantages of the method over previously published methods are discussed.
