“…immunoassay or fluorescence measurement, reflect group reactivity and are not specific for chemically well-defined substances. Previously, CML, CEL and related compounds have been determined by immunoassay (Schleicher et al, 1997), high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC; Friess et al, 2003;Nagai et al, 2003), tandem mass spectrometry (Thornalley et al, 2003) and selected ion monitoring gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (SIM-GC/MS; Ahmed et al, 1997). CML has been quantified in hydrolyzed sample of human skin Dyer et al, 1993), lens (Dunn et al, 1989), in rat (Liardon et al, 1987) and human urine (Knecht et al, 1991).…”
