Trace Determination of Domoic Acid in Sea Water and Phytoplankton by High-Performance Liquid Chromatography of the Fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl (FMOC) Derivative
Abstract
A method is presented for the trace determination of domoic acid, a neurotoxic amino acid responsible for cases of Amnesic Shellfish Poisoning resulting from the consumption of contaminated shellfish. The method involves pre-column derivatization with 9-fluorenylmethylchloroformate to form the FMOC derivative followed by reversed-phase HPLC with fluorescence detection. The detection limit for domoic acid in seawater and aqueous extracts is 15pg/mL (50 pM) using gradient elution, a 20μL injection volume, and a 2.1mm I.D. microbore column. Use of dihydrokainic acid as an internal standard improved quantitation. The method was applied to the detection of domoic acid in seawater, in phytoplankton cultures (Nitzschia pungens forma multiseries), and in natural mixed phytoplankton assemblages in estuarine waters.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
