We present gas chromatographic/mass spectrometric and gas chromatographic/isotope ratio mass spectrometric assays of the 13C enrichment of plasma urea converted to its dimethylaminomethylene derivative. The limits of sensitivity of the two techniques are 0.2% and 0.02%, respectively. The techniques

We developed gas chromatography-mass spectrometry assays for the concentration and mass isotopomer distribution of malonyl-CoA in tissues. The assay involves perchloric acid extraction of the tissue, spiking the extract with [U-13 C 3 ]malonyl-CoA or dimethylmalonyl-CoA internal standard, isolation
A simple and reliable method for the determination of ketone body turnover in vivo using a primed, continuous infusion of [3,4-'"C2]acetoacetate is described. Mole percent enrichment of @-['3C2]hydroxybutyrate and [lrC,Jacetoacetate is determined by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry using electro
