Descrizione
Risultati analitici
The 25-OH forms of the secosteroids vitamin D2 and D3 are indicators of the vitamin D status of an individual. However, because they have different biological activity and clinical interest, they should be distinguishable. The Ascentis Express F5 phase was able to resolve the two compounds under highly LC-MS/MS compatible conditions. The highest grade LC-MS solvents were used to supply low background interference and low particulate contaminants for robust, trouble-free operation. Cerilliant CRMs provided reliable identification and quantification.
