Abstract: | Five methods of acid digestion of amniotic fluid phospholipids for inorganic phosphate release were evaluated at a temperature of 225 °C and a heating time of 30 min. The methods used the following digestants: (A (perchloric acid), B (perchloric acid containing molybdate), C (sulfuric acid, 30% hydrogen peroxide, 5% urea), D (sulfuric-perchloric acids), and E (sulfuric-perchloric acids with vanadium pentoxide). After digestion and dilution with water, a hydrogen ion concentration of about 2.5 mol/ liter was obtained that permitted the use of stannous chloride-hydrazine sulfate as the reducing agent for phosphate color development. Recoveries of the different amniotic fluid phospholipids and aqueous phosphate standards were quantitative for all methods. A comparative study with amniotic fluids showed similar results for all methods. Since all methods were found to be equivalent under the specified conditions described, the choice was dependent upon the user's preference. |
