Abstract:
Objective To establish and optimize a method for simultaneous determination for the contents of sodium,potassium,calci-um and magnesium ions in serum using microwave digestion combined with ion chromatography,and evaluate its performance.Methods Serum samples were pretreated by microwave digestion,and four cations were quantitatively determined using ion chromatography.The linearity,precision,recovery and accuracy of the established method were verified with reference to the EP6-A and EP15-A3 docu-ments issued by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI).Results The imprecisions of determinations for sodium,po-tassium,calcium and magnesium ions expressed as coefficient of variation(CV)were 0.10％to 0.36％,0.15％to 0.48％,0.22％to 0.87％and 0.21％to 0.73％,respectively.The recoveries with adding standard of the four cations were between 97.3％and 103.0％.Referred to RELA2020 and RELA2021,the deviations of the analysis results were-0.57％to-0.14％,-0.84％to-0.16％,-1.82％to-0.37％,and-0.60％to 0.34％for sodium,potassium,calcium,and magnesium,respectively,and all the comparisons were pas-sed.The limits of detection/quantification were 0.017 5/0.058 3 mmol/L,0.000 5/0.001 7 mmol/L,0.009 9/0.032 9 mmol/L and 0.001 1/0.003 5 mmol/L for the four cations,indicating that after pretreatment,no significantly interfere from other impurities for the results of determination was found.Conclusion A method for simultaneous determination of sodium,potassium,calcium and magnesi-um ions in serum was successfully established and optimized using microwave digestion combined with ion chromatography.The method showed good precision and accuracy,simple operation,short time consumption and low cost,thus it could be used for quality improve-ment of clinical electrolyte testing in serum.
