Abstract

Citrulline is a nonessential free amino acid, detectable in various biological fluids such as plasma, urine and cerebrospinal fluid. The plasma citrulline concentration is increasingly considered to be a reliable biomarker of enterocyte function. Current analysis usually involves lengthy HPLC separations as a part of classical amino acid profiling, or mass spectrometry usually in combination with derivatization. We employed UPLC-HILIC-tandem mass-spectrometry (MS/MS) of acetonitrile-derived supernatants from plasma samples of control subjects and of patients who had received myeloablative chemotherapy. Detection was achieved by the selected reaction monitoring of transitions: m/z 176-->70 and 180-->74 (for the deuterated standard), respectively. The method was precise and accurate with inter-day CV<3.9% (n=30), recoveries ranging from 98.0 to 100.3% and high linearity from 0.3 to at least 2,000 micromol/L. The results for 202 plasma samples agreed well with those obtained by the classical HPLC-fluorescence method. By a simple protein precipitation/extraction step and the UPLC separation the result can be available within 30 min of receipt with a capacity of at least 12 assays per hour. Citrulline in blood and plasma or serum wa...Continue Reading
