Definitions

  • the process requires only a single reagent addition and comprises reacting the phosphate-containing fluid with an ammonium molybdate solution and thereafter measuring the absorbance within a specified time interval before the reaction has measurably proceeded and at the end of the reaction by means of a centrifugal analytical photometer.
  • concentration is an unknown sample can be conveniently calculated by comparison with the results obtained from the simultaneous measurement of a sample of known concentra tion.
  • inorganic phosphate in body fluids such as blood serum
  • body fluids such as blood serum
  • the determination of phosphate in serum is important in several diseases in particular uremia and chronic renal diseases were phosphate retention occurs.
  • inorganic phosphate Only the so-called inorganic phosphate is estimated since the significance of changes in phospholipids, phosphate esters and nucleotide phosphate is not easily related to clinical problems.
  • the photometric determination of inorganic phosphate in biological samples is conventionally performed by the use of the molybdenum blue reaction (LM. Kolthoff and PD. Elving, Eds, Part II, Vol. 5 pages 317-402, 1961).
  • inorganic phosphate can be determined conveniently and accurately by a method which utilizes a centrifugal automatic analyzer.
  • Analytical photometers which utilize a centrifugal field have recently become available for the rapid microanalysis of awide variety of liquidssuch as body fluids,
  • each reagent and serum sample having its respective cuvet.
  • centrifugal force moves the reagents and sample to the outermost cavity where they are transferred through a small channel to the cuvet.
  • the reagent and sample mix.
  • the filled cuvets rapidly spin past the fixed light beam and the transmission of light is measured.
  • a further object is to provide a process for the determination of inorganic phosphate which is accurate and requires only a single reagent addition.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a process for the determination of inorganic phosphate in which the background absorbances of sample and reagent are automatically eliminated.
  • a further object is to provide a process which utilizes a centrifugal analytical photometer.
  • the process of this invention provides an accurate and rapid method for the quantitative determination of inorganic phosphate in body fluids. in view of the fact that a linear relationship exists between the change of absorbance and the phosphate concentration, up to at least milligram per 100 milliliters phosphate can be measured. Results of precision studies and correlation with a known method indicated that this method was of equal accuracy.
  • the process simplifies the diagnostic reagent by measuring the color formed in the first reaction alone.
  • the absorption of the unreduced phosphomolybdate complex occurs in the ultraviolet and can be quantitatively measured at 340nm.
  • protein does not have to be removed from the sample and is kept in solution.
  • the process comprises the determination of inorganic phosphate by measurement of changes in absorbance due to the interaction of inorganic phosphate and ammonium molybdate.
  • a centrifugal rotary photometer supplied by Union Carbide Corporation under the trademark CentrifiChem was utilized.
  • a Teflon disk containing samples and reagents is inserted into a rotor with 30 radially arranged cuvets.
  • the reagent rises from every individual reagent well up to individual sample cavities, and the sample reagent mixture is transferred into the single cuvets within 1.5 seconds.
  • One cuvet containing water is used as a reference when the cuvets spin past the stationary light beam of a spectrophotometer which measures the absorbance and displays it on an oscilloscope. Two sets of digitized absorbance readings of each cuvet can be stored simultaneously and the difference between them processed in a computer.
  • the reading is taken of the first absorbance after start and I the time interval after which the second measurement occurs also noted.
  • a number of readings can be taken after the initial one.
  • the absorbance change per interval is expressed in AA/min.
  • the absorbance differences between initial and every individual subsequent set of readings is measured. This approach allows compensation for cuvet to cuvet variations and for serum and reagent blanks if readings are taken before the reaction has started to a measurable degree.
  • a blank reading recorded in a preceding run can be used as initial reading in a subsequent run. After a selected time interval has elapsed, the readings are printed out.
  • the last set of data stored in the memory can be multiplied by means of the computer which permits direct print-out in concentration units.
  • the rotor is thermostated within 101C. in an air bath.
  • a particular advantage of the process of this invention is that removal of protein which normally would interfere with the reaction is avoided. It was observed that serum protein could be kept in solution and turbidity minimized by the addition of a small amount of a surface active agent.
  • a surface active agent such as the sorbitan monooleates, sold by Atlas Powder Company under the trademark tween". Tween80 is particularly effective in eliminating protein interference.
  • the amount of surface active agent employed need only be such as will prevent precipitation and turbidity. In practice it has been found that if the molybdate solution contains from about 0.1 to about 1.0 per cent of the surface active agent that protein interference is suppressed.
  • the single active reagent employed in the process of this invention is an ammonium molybdate solution.
  • the solution is prepared by dissolving 2.0 grams of ammonium molybdate (NI-I Mo O '4H O) in one liter of 1.2N H 80
  • the solution is stable indefinitely.
  • the surface active agent can be added to the molybdate solution. For example, 0.9 milliliters of a solution containing l part of the surface active agent to two parts of water can be added to each 100 milliliter of the molybdate solution.
  • a standard phosphorous reference solution can be prepared by dissolving 439 milligrams of KH PQ, in 100 milliliters of water. A few drops of chloroform can be added as a preservative. 5.0 milliliters of this stock solution is then diluted to 100 milliliters with water.
  • the optical system of the analyzer permits the measurement of absorbance in a linear dynamic range from 0 to 2.5 at 340 nm. Since the reaction is linear to above 10 milligram per 100 milliliter phosphate, and the unreduced form of the phosphomolybdate complex can be employed, the inorganic phosphate can be determined rapidly and accurately; By measuring the difference in the two absorbance readings and comparing it with a solution containing a known quantity of phosphorous, the concentration can easily be determined. Comparison of the method of this invention with conventional literature methods confirmed its accuracy.
  • the following example is illustrative:
  • EXAMPLE I The majority of the sample cavities of a Teflon disk sample holder of a CentrifiChem Automatic Analyzer were loaded with 10 microliters of human blood sera.
  • the referenceposition contained 400 microliters of distilled water in the innermost cavity.
  • the remaining cavities were loaded with 10 microliter aliquots of various phosphorous standards ranging from 2 to 10 milligrams per hundred milliliters.
  • An ammonium molybdate solution was prepared containing 2 grams of (NI-I MO O -4H O and 3 milliliters of a non-ionic surface active agent, sold by Atlas Powder Company under the trademark tween-80. In one liter of 1.2N H SO -400 microliters of this solution was then placed in the innermost reagentcavity of the sample holder.
  • the initial reading of all 30 cuvettes was taken two seconds after starting the rotor spin. The second reading was taken after ten minutes. The absorbance change was used to determine phosphorus concentrations based upon the standards. The test was run with a 340nm interference filter.
  • the absorbance of a solution is proportional to the concentration of the solutions chromophore as long as the concentration is low. Accordingly, the concentration of phosphomolybdate formed in the reaction is at any time proportional to the absorbance it generates.
  • the analyzer employed this is achieved by setting the appropriate factor on a digital switch which automatically multiplies the absorbance whereupon concentration units will be printed out directly.
