Specific methods are described for the enzymatic synthesis of each of the six possible 3H-labeled Ring-A reduced metabolites of aldosterone (5 alpha- and 5 beta-DHAldo; 3 alpha,5 alpha-THAldo; 3 beta,5 alpha-THAldo; 3 alpha,5 beta-THAldo; and 3 beta,5 beta-THAldo; see footnote 1 for full names). Use of heated jacketed columns (C8-reverse phase) and two HPLC solvent systems, with isocratic aqueous methanol or acetonitrile, respectively, have been developed which resolve all six Ring-A reduced metabolites of aldosterone. The relative retention times and elution order of each reduced metabolite are different with each solvent system and hence help confirm the identities of Ring-A reduced metabolites made in vivo from physiological quantities of [3H]aldosterone. The use of an on-line beta-radioactivity detector (Berthold LB-504) enhanced the sensitivity of detection and markedly improved the resolution of these metabolites, compared with that obtained by off-line scintillation counting. Thus, the use of increased temperature with these two solvent systems, together with an on-line radioactivity detector, provide a useful and efficient analytical tool for the separation and identification of each reduced metabolite of aldosterone.
