title: Enantiomeric determination of L- and D-lactic acid in human cerebrospinal fluid by chiral ligand exchange high-performance liquid chromatography.
abstract: Enantiomeric determination of L- and D-lactate in human cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) was achieved by HPLC on a chiral stationary phase with UV detection. Samples were submitted to a solid-phase extraction procedure using Oasis HLB Plus Extraction Cartridge and L- and D-lactate in the extract were separated by Shodex ORpac CRX-453 B column, a ligand exchange column for chiral separation, using a mobile phase containing copper (II) ion. L- and D-lactate were determined in 25 min. Intra-assay precision in CSF was 4.98% (mean 1.85 mmol/L) for L-lactate and 10.1% (mean 4.96 micromol/L) for D-lactate (n = 5). Detection limits were between 1.0 (L-lactate) and 1.5 (D-lactate) pmol. The mean values (n = 3) of analytical recovery for L- and D-lactate were 95% and 107%, respectively. The mean +/- SD of concentrations of L- and D-lactate in CSF (n = 20) were 1.52 +/- 0.54 mmol/L and 10.98 +/- 5.15 micromol/L, respectively.
