  • Method of analyzing dicarboxylic acids
    Patent number: 6692971
    Abstract: A novel method for the qualitative and quantitative analysis of dicarboxylic acids in biological samples is provided. The method includes the steps of esterfying the acid component of the sample and subsequently analyzing the esterified sample using tandem mass spectroscopy using atmospheric pressure ionization techniques in the positive ion mode. The method is particularly useful in the determination of methylmalonic acid in biological samples, and thus, the diagnosis of vitamin B12 deficiency.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 17, 2001
    Date of Patent: February 17, 2004
    Assignee: University of Utah Research Foundation
    Inventors: Bori Shushan, Mark Kushnir, Gabor Komaromy-Hiller
