Arsenic-containing lipids (arsenolipids) are novel natural products recently shown to be widespread in marine animals and algae. Research interest in these arsenic compounds lies in their possible role in the membrane chemistry of organisms and, because they occur in many popular seafoods, their human metabolism and toxicology. Progress has been restricted, however, by the lack of standard arsenolipids and of a quantitative method for their analysis. We report that the certified reference material CRM 7405-a (Hijiki) is a rich source of arsenolipids, and we describe a method based on HPLC-ICPMS/ESMS to quantitatively measure seven of the major arsenolipids present. Sample preparation involved extraction with DCM/methanol, a cleanup step with silica, and conversion of the (oxo)arsenolipids originally present to thio analogues by brief treatment with H2S. Compared to their oxo analogues, the thioarsenolipids showed much sharper peaks on reversed-phase HPLC, which facilitated their resolution and quantification. The compounds were determined by HPLC-ICPMS and HPLC-ESMS, which provided both arsenic-selective detection and high resolution molecular mass detection of the arsenolipids. In this way, the concentrations of two arsenic-containing hydrocarbons and five arsenosugar phospholipids are reported in the CRM Hijiki. This material may serve as a convenient source of characterized arsenolipids to delineate the presence of these compounds in seafoods and to facilitate research in a new era of arsenic biochemistry.
