Abstract
An LC-MS/MS-based bioanalytical method has been developed to measure the concentration of L-threonate at its endogenous level in human plasma. Following isotope dilution and protein precipitation, the samples were acetylated and chromatographed under reversed-phase conditions for baseline separation of the derivatized L-threonate and its stereoisomer D-erythronate. The method was assessed by a fit-for-purpose validation with a calibration range from 100 to 10,000 ng/mL. The intra-run coefficients of variation (CVs) were <3.6% and the inter-run CV was 3.2% for the QC samples at endogenous level. At the lower limit of quantitation, the intra-run CV was 6.1% and the average inaccuracy was -1.4%. This method provides an efficient and reliable quantitation of L-threonate and could be useful to certain biomarker investigators.
