β¦ Synopsis
A routine analysis for micro samples of plasma amino acids by a gas chromatography mass spectrometry computer system has been developed. Isotope ratio determination was used as the quantitating technique via multiple internal standards. The speed of the analysis is increased by omitting the ion exchange purification step and its flexibility is maximized by using repetitive scanning rather than selective ion monitoring. This procedure yields excellent precision and accuracy, as demonstrated by the analysis of a known amino acid mixture and of neonatal plasma.

Of all the elements, hydrogen has the largest naturally occurring variations in the ratio of its stable isotopes (D/H). It is for this reason that there has been a strong desire to add hydrogen to the list of elements amenable to isotope ratio monitoring gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (irm-GC/
## We present the analysis of the stable carbon isotope compositions of 14 individual N-pivaloyl-isopropyl (NPP) amino acid esters by gas chromatography-combustion isotope ratio mass spectrometry (GC-C-IRMS). The mean reproducibility of derivatization procedure and GC-C-IRMS analysis was 0.45β° (ra
