Thin-layer chromatography blotting for the fluorescence detection of phospholipid hydroperoxides and cholesteryl ester hydroperoxides.
A blotting technique was developed to specifically detect lipid hydroperoxides in thin-layer chromatography. Phosphatidylcholine hydroperoxides and cholesteryl linoleate hydroperoxides ranging from 0.1 to 0.5 nmol, which were prepared by reaction with soybean lipoxygenase, were visualized as fluorescent spots on the blotted membrane by immersing the plate into a blotting solvent containing 0.01% (w/v) diphenyl-1-pyrenylphosphine. This technique was applied successfully to monitor lipid peroxidation in human low-density lipoprotein in vitro.
