Simultaneous quantitation of folic acid and 5-methyltetrahydrofolic acid in human plasma by HPLCâMS/MS and its application to a pharmacokinetic study

A sensitive method based on high-performance liquid chromatographyâtandem mass spectrometry (LCâMS/MS) has been developed for the simultaneous determination of folic acid (FA) and its active metabolite, 5-methyltetrahydrofolic acid (5-M-THF), in human plasma. The analytes were extracted from plasma...
