Quantification of Metanephrine and Normetanephrine in Urine Using Liquid Chromatography-Tandem Mass Spectrometry
Measuring urinary metanephrines aides in the diagnosis of pheochromocytomas–catecholamine producing tumors. Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) allows for greater sensitivity and simpler sample preparation as compared with other techniques. Here we describe a simple LC-MS/MS method for measuring metanephrines in urine. Each urine sample was treated with diphenylboronic acid to create boronate complexes, and then applied to a Bond-Elut Plexa cartridge. After solid phase extraction, samples were concentrated and analyzed on an Atlantis T3 column with chromatographic run time totaling 8.5 min. MS/M...
