Quantitation of plasma mevalonic acid using gas chromatography-electron capture mass spectrometry.
Circulating concentrations of mevalonic acid (MVA) change in parallel with, and may be used as a marker of cholesterol biosynthesis. Plasma MVA levels have been quantified using a sensitive and specific capillary gas chromatography-electron capture mass spectrometric assay. The detection limit for M...
