Abstract
AbstractMethodologies for quantitative analysis of amino acids in physiological fluids based on classical ion exchange, high performance liquid chromatography, and gas chromatography are analyzed. As judged by the relative number of reports on these techniques, it appears that classical ion exchange continues to be the main method of choice for amino acid determinations and only limited advantage has been taken of the benefits (e.g. lower capital outlay and running costs and shorter analysis times) offered by other techniques. More importantly, however, there appears to be insufficient quantitative evaluation of the methodologies used. As a result, the validity of many reports based on data from amino acid analysis of physiological samples may be questioned.
