Gas Chromatographic Determination of Amino Acids and Polyamines in Human Skin Samples using Trifluoroacetylacetone and Isobutyl Chloroformate as Derivatizing Reagents
Abstract:An analytical method has been developed with improved sensitivity for the determination of amino acids and polyamines after precolumn derivatization with trifluoroacetylacetone and isobutyl chloroformate. 28 compounds comprising of 20 amino acids, five polyamines (1,3 diaminopropane, putrescine, cadverine, spermindine and spermine) and three biogenic compounds (4-aminobutyric acid, histamine and dopamine) separated completely with linear calibration range 1-10 µg/ml and limits of detection 60 -200 ng/ml.
