Separation of elastin cross-links as phenylisothiocyanate derivatives.
A method has been developed for the separation and quantitation of desmosines in tissue samples. The tissue is treated with cold 10% trichloroacetic acid to remove collagen and hydrolysed in HCl vapours in sealed vials. Preseparation of desmosines from tissue acid hydrolysates is performed on a cellulose column, first eluted with n-butanol-acetic acid-water to wash out other amino acids and then with water to recover desmosines. Separated desmosines are then derivatized with phenylisothiocyanate and determined by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography using a gradient system with sodium acetate pH 6.4 and acetonitrile. Desmosines were detected spectrophotometrically at 254 nm. The method was applied to the determination of desmosine in elastin, rat aorta and bovine ligamentum nuchae.
