  5. 4. Implementation of a straightforward derivatizationmethod for the simultaneous analysis of short chainfatty acids and tricarboxylic acid cycle metabolitesby LC-qToF-MS.

    University essay from Örebro universitet/Institutionen för naturvetenskap och teknik

    Author : Renée Levisson; [2021]
    Keywords : Short-chain fatty acids; tricarboxylic acid TCA cycle; chemical derivatization; 3-nitrophenylhydrazine;

    Abstract : Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) and the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle metabolites aresmall hydrophilic compounds that play crucial roles in biological species ranging fromenergy metabolism, immune homeostasis to cellular signalling. There is a need for reliableand precise quantification of these metabolites in biological matrices as they can providecrucial information of metabolic status and potentially be used as diagnostic biomarkersfor different pathological and physiological conditions.
