Direct clean-up and analysis of ribonucleosides in physiological fluids.

We describe the group-selective separation and quantification of unmodified, modified and hypermodified ribonucleosides in physiological fluids (urine, serum) by on-line multidimensional high-performance affinity chromatography (HPAC)-reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC). The excretion levels and patterns of ribonucleosides such as N1-methyladenosine, N1-methylinosine, N2-methylguanosine, N2-dimethylguanosine, N6-carbamoylthreonyladenosine and 2-pyridone-5-carboxamido-N-ribofuranoside were determined in urines from a control group and from patients with different diseases. The HPAC-RPLC method applied represents a powerful tool, e.g. as a non-invasive screening test, a method to investigate disorders in ribonucleoside and/or RNA metabolism, a method for drug monitoring during nucleoside chemotherapy, and a method to study renal ribonucleoside reutilization.

Development of a chromatographic method for the quantitative determination of minor ribonucleosides in physiological fluids. Characterization and quantitative determination of minor ribonucleosides in physiological fluids, Part I.

We describe an on-line multi-column high performance liquid chromatographic method for the selective clean-up and analysis of major and minor ribonucleosides in physiological fluids. Quantitative data obtained for the determination of some methylated ribonucleosides in human urines are compared with those obtained with the traditional off-line method. The on-line technique developed in our laboratory is distinguished from the off-line method by the following features: Sample clean-up and analysis of the target-compounds can easily be automatized, Total time of analysis, for example of urinary ribonucleosides, is decreased to 35 minutes, Laborious and error-prone evaporation and redissolution steps are avoided, Reliability of the overall analytical system can be controlled with ease, Small sample-volumes can be applied directly, Sensitive samples can be processed very rapidly under mild conditions, Results obtained with the on-line and off-line-techniques compare well.

On-line high-performance liquid affinity chromatography-high-performance liquid chromatography analysis of monomeric ribonucleoside compounds in biological fluids.

We describe an on-line multi-dimensional column chromatography system. It consists of a high-performance liquid affinity chromatography perfractionation column for cis-diol compounds and a series-connected reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography system for the analysis of ribonucleosides. This on-line procedure allows the rapid and direct analysis of methylated ribonucleic acid catabolites in biological fluids (serum, urine) and therefore might be useful in pathobiochemistry.
