A simple ion-pairing reverse-phase HPLC method, with UV diode array detection, was developed and validated for quantitation of the urinary niacin metabolites 1-methylnicotinamide and l-methyl-2-pyridone-5-carboxamide in a single run. Urine samples were purified using a polymer-based mixed mode anion exchange reverse-phase cartridge. Analysis was performed on a reverse-phase C18 column, using a methanol gradient elution system, containing phosphate buffer pH 7.0, 1-heptanesulphonic acid as the ion-pairing agent and trimethylamine as a modifier. The assay was applied to the measurement of the niacin status of two subjects using spot urine samples. The samples were collected over 4 consecutive days and at four time points during 1 day. Status, expressed as the concentration ratios (2-PYR or 1-MN)/creatinine and 2-PYR/l-MN, varied within and between days and was least for fasting samples. This work illustrates the potential of spot urine sampling for niacin status assessment, but highlights the need for further validation prior to its use in field nutritional surveys.
