Descripción

General description

The 0.95 m SUPELCOWAX 10 column was obtained by cutting lengths from a standard length column (e.g. 5, 10, 15 m).

Analysis Note

Sample prep: 100 mL of plasma was saponified with 1 mL of methanolic sodium methoxide (0.5% w/v) at a temperature of 100 °C for 15 min in a closed Pyrex tube. The subsequent methylic esterification was achieved with 1 mL boron trifluoride-methanol complex at a temperature of 100 °C for 15 min. The fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) were extracted by adding 1 mL of n-hexane to the mixture. One mL of a saturated NaCl solution was added to the entire mixture, which was then agitated manually for 2 min, followed by centrifugation at 3000 rpm for 10 min. After, anhydrous Na2SO4 was added to the Pyrex tube for drying and 0.9 mL of the n-hexane FAME layer was transferred to a GC injector vial. A 0.1 mL volume of 1000 ppm internal standard (C13:0) was also added to the GC vial.
