A microdialysis sampling device was constructed for the measurement of pyruvate and lactate in primary liver cell culture medium during hypoxia. It was composed of a Petri dish, a dialysis membrane and two transmission tubes within a hypoxia chamber. The dialysis membrane was located in the Petri dish such that it was immersed in the culture medium. Dialysates were collected and introduced by an on-line injector to a liquid chromatographic system for analysis of pyruvate and lactate. The detection limit of this assay was 0.2-2.0 microM with acceptable intra- and inter-assay reproducibilities. In order to validate the assay, primary liver cells were incubated in the Petri dish within a hypoxia chamber in an incubator. The baseline concentrations of pyruvate and lactate in primary liver cell culture medium were 10.6+/-5.6 and 607+/-143 microM, respectively. These levels drastically changed during hypoxia and reperfusion. In conclusion, the present assay provides a sensitive, direct measurement of pyruvate and lactate in culture medium while minimizing pretreatment procedures for sample preparation.
