Stable isotope dilution assay for the accurate determination of mycotoxins in maize by UHPLC-MS/MS. [PDF]
A fast, easy-to-handle and cost-effective analytical method for 11 mycotoxins currently regulated in maize and other cereal-based food products in Europe was developed and validated for maize. The method is based on two extraction steps using different acidified acetonitrile–water mixtures.

Determination of tenuazonic acid in human urine by means of a stable isotope dilution assay [PDF]
The content of tenuazonic acid in human urine was determined by a stable isotope dilution assay (SIDA) that was recently developed for the analysis of food commodities and extensively re-validated for urine matrix in this study. Linearity of the response curve was proven between molar ratios n(labeled standard)/n(analyte) of 0.02-100.

Parkinson-dementia complex and development of a new stable isotope dilution assay for BMAA detection in tissue. [PDF]
Beta-methylamino-L-alanine (BMAA) has been proposed as a global contributor to neurodegenerative diseases, including Parkinson-dementia complex (PDC) of Guam and Alzheimer's disease (AD). The literature on the effects of BMAA is conflicting with some but not all in vitro data supporting a neurotoxic action, and experimental animal data failing to ...

Quantitative Succinylacetone Measurement by Gas Chromatography‐Tandem Mass Spectrometry (GC–MS/MS) Facilitates Diagnosis, Monitoring, and Characterization of Tyrosinemia Type 1 and Other Hypersuccinylacetonemias [PDF]
Tyrosinemia type 1 (HT1), due to deficient activity of fumarylacetoacetate hydrolase, causes accumulation of succinylacetone (SA). SA concentrations in urine and plasma of untreated HT1 patients are typically several thousand‐fold higher than normal ...
