Abstract: | Summary A rapid and simple method has been developed for the group fractionation of the major unsulphated and mono-sulphated bile
acids in human body fluids. After extraction with Bond Elut C18 cartridges, the bile acids are separated into the unconjugated, glycine-, taurine- and sulphate-conjugated forms on pre-packed
Bond Elut SAX columns by increasing the ionic strength of the methanol-acetate buffer eluent. The procedure was found to be
accurate and reproducible and to give complete resolution between the different groups. The levels of 3-sulphate bile acids
in human serum and urine from patients with liver disease were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography, after
group separation and solvolysis of the sulphate fraction. |
