Efficacy of two vitamin D immunoassays to detect 25-OH vitamin D2 and D3.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

Assessment of Vitamin D status by measurement of 25-Hydroxyvitamin D (25-OH-D) is widely performed by immunoassay. Yet, the ability of these assays to detect Vitamin D2 (as 25-OH-D2) or Vitamin D3 (as 25-OH-D3) varies. It is important to recognize the ability of an assay to quantitate either form of 25-OH-D to evaluate Vitamin D status of supplemented patients. We evaluated detection of 25-OH-D2 and 25-OH-D3 by two assays in our medical center.

Design and methods

The Abbott Architect i1000 SR 25-OH Vitamin D assay and Roche Cobas 8000 Vitamin D assay were compared for their recovery of 25-OH-D2 or D3 from spiked serum samples. Samples with known endogenous concentrations of 25-OH-D2 or D3 by LC-MS/MS were also measured to calculate bias between our assays and LC-M
