Suitability of selected chromatographic columns for analysis of fatty acids in dialyzed patients

Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry is a preferred method for fatty acid (FA) analysis in biofluids from patients with metabolic diseases. Complex characteristics of FAs make their analysis particularly challenging. Selection of an appropriate chromatographic column is particularly important component of the process as it provides optimal separation and detection of possibly all FAs present in the sample. However, no accurate protocol for...
