    Author: Kataoka H.
    Journal: J Chromatogr B Biomed Sci Appl; 1998 Oct 09; 717(1-2):247-62. PubMed ID: 9832248.
    Abstract:
    The analysis of lipoic acid and related compounds, such as its reduced form dihydrolipoic acid, its amide form lipoamide and other analogues, in biological and food samples is important in biochemistry, nutritional and clinical chemistry. This review summarizes the chromatographic methods for the determination of lipoic acid and related compounds, and their applications to various samples such as bacteria, tissues, drugs and food. Gas chromatographic methods with flame ionization detection and flame photometric detection are commonly used for the quantification of lipoic acid present as its protein-bound form, after acid or base hydrolysis of these samples. High-performance liquid chromatographic methods with ultraviolet, fluorescence and electrochemical detection are mainly used for the determination of free lipoic acid and related compounds, such as dihydrolipoic acid, lipoamide and other analogues. Moreover, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and capillary electrophoresis methods are also developed.
