The high-pressure liquid chromatographic separation of all of the known metabolites of vitamin D(2) and vitamin D(3) found in biological fluids has been achieved. This technique has been successfully applied to the analysis of vitamin D mixtures, purification of vitamin D metabolites, and identification of radioactive peaks. Some theoretical bases for the observed resolutions are suggested.

1. A method is described for the differentiation and determination of as little as 0.2mug. of vitamins D(2) and D(3) by gas-liquid chromatography. 2. The vitamins are converted by treatment with antimony trichloride into isovitamins D(2) and D(3), which show single, separate peaks on gas-liquid chromatography, unlike the unmodified vitamins, which give twin peaks due to the formation of pyro and isopyro derivatives. 3. Since isovitamins D(2) and D(3) remain together in all steps of the procedure except during gas-liquid chromatography, one may be used as an internal standard for the other. 4. The use of an internal standard reduces the importance of loss during sample preparation and increases precision. 5. The application of the method to biological materials is demonstrated.
In 12 patients with allergic bronchial asthma and airway obstruction the effect of calcium in combination with vitamin D 2 (calciferol), given orally, was tested in a cross-over double blind study. Within 60 minutes after application, a statistically significant reduction of airway resistance (Rt) and intrathoracic gas volume (IGV), as well as an increase of forced exspiratory one second volume (FEV1) and forced inspiratory one second volume (FIV1) was observed, in comparison with placebo. It is concluded that calcium, given orally in combination with calciferol, causes a decrease of airway obstruction in patients with allergic bronchial asthma.
