Quantitative acylcarnitine determination by UHPLC-MS/MS — Going beyond tandem MS acylcarnitine “profiles” [PDF]
Tandem MS "profiling" of acylcarnitines and amino acids was conceived as a first-tier screening method, and its application to expanded newborn screening has been enormously successful. However, unlike amino acid screening (which uses amino acid analysis as its second-tier validation of screening results), acylcarnitine "profiling" also assumed the ...
