For the analysis of multiple-reaction intermediates for long-chain dicarboxylic acid biotransformation, simple and reproducible methods of extraction and derivatization were developed on the basis of gas chromatography with flame ionization detector (GC-FID) instead of mass spectrometer (MS). In the derivatization step, change of the ratio of pyridine to MSTFA from 1:3 to 9:1 resulted in higher peak intensity (p = 0.021) and reproducibility (0.6%CV) when analyzing 32 g/L ricinoleic acid (RA). Extraction of RA and -hydroxyundec-9-enoic acid (-HUA) with water containing 100 mM tween80 showed 90.4~99.9% relative extraction efficiency and 2~7%CV compared to those with hydrophobic ethyl acetate. In conclusion, reduction of pyridine content and change of extraction solvent to water with tween80 provided compatible derivatization and extraction methods to GC-FID-based analysis of long-chain carboxylic acids.
