I'm going to extract vitamin D from mammalian cells and quantify using HPLC. Did anybody do such thing? I don't want to use ultrasounds because of variaty of compounds in cells which I don't need. I'm thinking about DMSO or propanol extraction.

The last method I optimized for NP-HPLC detection of Vit D in tablets was a simple adaptation of the European Pharmacopoeia (5th edition)
