Improved one-dimensional thin-layer chromatography of phospholipids in amniotic fluid.

With this extraction procedure and chromatographic method, six amniotic fluid phospholipids [phosphatidylcholine (lecithin), sphingomyelin, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylserine, phosphatidylethanolamine, and phosphatidylglycerol] are completely resolved in less than 70 min from the time the specimen is received. The mobile phase (chloroform/petroleum ether/methanol/acetic acid, 5/3/1.6/1, b...

Influence of phospholipid saturation on classical thin-layer chromatographic detection methods and its effect on amniotic fluid lecithin/sphingomyelin ratio determinations.

We compared seven techniques, commonly used for detection of amniotic fluid phospholipids in thin-layer chromatography, with respect to their sensitivity to saturation of the fatty acid carbon-chain of lecithin. The techniques fell into two classes: sensitive and insensitive; those classed as saturation sensitive were less than or equal to 10% as sensitive to fully saturated lecithin as to leci...

Fetal lung maturity, as assessed by gas-liquid chromatographic determination of phospholipid palmitic acid in amniotic fluid.

We describe a new and specific method for measurement of lecithin palmitic acid in amniotic fluid. Dipalmitoyl lecithin, the major alveolar surfactant, has previously been estimated by measuring the lecithin-sphingomyelin ratio, total lecithin, total phospholipid phosphorus, and (or) total palmitic acid. Our method is more specific for estimation of dipalmitoyl lecithin, because nonphospholipid...

Measurement of the ratio of lecithin to sphingomyelin in amniotic fluid by fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry.

We describe a fast atom bombardment mass spectrometric method to determine the ratio of lecithin to sphingomyelin in amniotic fluid. Between m/z 400 and 1000, amniotic fluid extracts showed clear peaks for only sphingomyelin and lecithin. The molecular species of fatty acid in the phospholipids were analyzed quantitatively and quickly in a small volume of the extracts. The dipalmitoyllecithin/p...

Evaluating the clinical effectiveness of amniotic fluid assays in predicting respiratory distress syndrome in the neonate.

Amniotic fluid phospholipids from 346 patients' specimens were quantified and evaluated against the clinical outcome (i.e., respiratory distress syndrome or normal respiratory function). Concentrations of lecithin, sphingomyelin, phosphatidylglycerol, and the lecithin/sphingomyelin reflectance ratio were evaluated by ordered frequency distribution and stepwise discriminant function analysis. Th...
