Biochemical measures of nutrients or other dietary constituents can be an important component of nutritional assessment and monitoring. However, accurate interpretation of the nutrient concentration is dependent on knowledge of the determinants of the body pool measured. The purpose of this study was to identify the determinants of serum carotenoid and fat-soluble vitamin concentrations in a large, community-based sample (n = 1042). Multiple linear regression analysis was used to examine effects of demographic characteristics (age, sex, race/ethnicity, education), health-related behavior (exercise, sun exposure, smoking, alcohol consumption), and intake (diet, supplements) on serum retinol, 25-hydroxyvitamin D, alpha-tocopherol, phylloquinone, and carotenoid concentrations. Age, sex, race/ethnicity, vitamin A intake, and alcohol consumption were found to be determinants of serum retinol concentration. Race/ethnicity, vitamin D intake, body mass index, smoking status, and sun exposur...

The 1996 Food and Drug Administration approval of the fat substitute olestra (sucrose polyester) called for active postmarketing surveillance because preapproval studies showed that olestra may lower circulating concentrations of fat-soluble nutrients such as vitamins and carotenoids. The objective of the Olestra Post-Marketing Surveillance Study was to examine whether customary consumption of olestra-containing savory snacks was associated with changes in serum fat-soluble vitamin and carotenoid concentrations among free-living persons in geographically and ethnically distinct US cities. Adults (n = 2535) and their children aged 12-17 y (n = 272) in Baltimore, Minneapolis, and San Diego attended clinic visits during which data were collected on diet, savory snack consumption, lifestyle, and anthropometric indexes. Blood samples were drawn to assay carotenoids and vitamins A, D, E, and K. Data and blood samples were collected both before and after the nationwide introduction of oles...

In 1996, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved olestra, a fat substitute, for use in snack foods. Previous studies had shown that olestra consumption could reduce absorption of carotenoids and fat-soluble vitamins. To determine the association between consumption of olestra-containing snack foods and serum concentrations of carotenoids and fat-soluble vitamins in a free-living population, we interviewed independent population-based cross-sectional samples of 1043 adults before olestra was available and 933 adults 9 mo after olestra snacks were introduced into the marketplace in Marion County, IN, the first major test market for olestra. A cohort composed of 403 adults from the first survey, oversampling those most frequently reporting olestra consumption during follow-up telephone interviews, completed a second survey. We assessed diet, lifestyle factors and olestra consumption, and collected blood for assays for the serum concentrations of six carotenoids, four fat-soluble...

The National Institute of Standards and Technology coordinates the Micronutrients Measurement Quality Assurance Program (MMQAP) for laboratories that measure fatand water-soluble vitamins and carotenoids in human serum and plasma. This report describes the design of and results for the Winter, Spring and Fall 1990 MMQAP measurement comparability improvement studies: 1) Round Robin XVIII Fat-Soluble Vitamins and Carotenoids in Human Serum, 2) Round Robin XIX FatSoluble Vitamins and Carotenoids in Human Serum, and 3) Round Robin XX Fat-Soluble Vitamins and Carotenoids in Human Serum. The materials for Round Robin XVIII were shipped to participants in January 1990; participants were requested to provide their measurement results by March 5, 1990. The materials for Round Robin XIX were shipped to participants in May 1990; participants were requested to provide their measurement results by July 6, 1990. The materials for Round Robin XX were shipped to participants in August 1990; partici...

In Standard Reference Material 968b, fatsoluble vitamins and cholesterol in human serum, certified values are provided for cholesterol, retinol, retinyl palmitate, a-tocopherol, trans-13-carotene, total n-carotene (trans plus cis isomers), total ot-carotene, and lutein. Non-certified values are also reported for y-tocopherol (includes (3-tocopherol), 6-tocopherol, zeaxanthin, j3-cryptoxanthin, trans-lycopene, translycopene, trans-a-carotene, total lycopene, 9-cis-pcarotene, 13-plus 15-cis-13-carotene, and 15-cis-(3-carotene. Both certified and non-certified values are based on the agreement among results from three different liquid chromatographic analytical procedures developed at NIST and from an interlaboratory comparison exercise among institutions that participate in a NIST-managed Micronutrients Measurement Quality Assurance Program. Cholesterol is certified in this material using the NIST isotope dilution/mass spectrometric definitive method.
