| Abstract | Vitamin D exists in two major forms, vitamin D3 and vitamin D2. Vitamin D helps the body absorb calcium and promote optimal bone health. Both forms of vitamin D are metabolized to 25-hydroxyvitamin D in the body, and the levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 [25(OH)D3] and 25-hydroxyvitamin D2 [25(OH)D2] in serum are considered the best indicators of vitamin D status. A candidate reference measurement procedure for serum 25(OH)D3 and 25(OH)D2 has been developed and critically evaluated. The deuterated compounds 25(OH)D3-d 3 and 25(OH)D2-d 3 are used as internal standards for 25(OH)D3 and 25(OH)D2, respectively. The 25(OH)D3 and 25(OH)D2 and their respective labeled internal standards are simultaneously extracted from serum using liquid-liquid extraction prior to reversed-phase LC-MS/MS. Chromatographic separation was performed using a cyano (CN) column for both 25(OH)D3 and 25(OH)D2. Atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) in the positive ion mode and multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) were used for LC-MS/MS. The accuracy of the method was evaluated by recovery studies of measuring 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] in spiked samples with known 25(OH)D levels. The recoveries of the added 25(OH)D3 and 25(OH)D2 ranged from 99.0 % to 101.0 %. The absolute recoveries with this method were 97 % and 92 % for 25(OH)D3 and 25(OH)D2, respectively. Excellent precision was obtained with between-set coefficients of variation (CVs) of 0.2% - 0.6% for 25(OH)D levels > 1 ng/g and within 2% for the level of < 1 ng/g. Chromatographic separation of 25(OH)D3 and 25(OH)D2 from their respective isomers 3-epi-25(OH)D3 and 3-epi-25(OH)D2 was achieved. The limit of detection at a signal-to-noise ratio of ~ 3 was 40 pg of 25(OH)D on column (or ~ 0.15 ng/g as expressed as a concentration). This candidate reference measurement procedure for serum 25(OH)D3 and 25(OH)D2 demonstrates good accuracy and precision and low susceptibility to interferences. It can be used to provide an accuracy base to which clinical methods for 25(OH)D3 and 25(OH)D2 can be compared and that will serve as a standard of higher order for measurement traceability. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
