General description

Aldosterone is a hormone in the mineralocorticoid family which stimulates sodium transport across cell membranes and assists in the maintenance of blood pressure and blood volume. Aldosterone levels in serum/plasma and urine are measured by LC-MS/MS for investigation of primary or secondary aldosteronism ranging from adrenal cortical hyperplasia to renovascular disease and Bartter′s syndrome.

Application

The d-isomer of aldosterone is considered to be the biologically active isomer.

Other Notes

Exists as an equilibrium mixture of the aldehyde and the hemiacetal.

LC/MS/MS Analysis of Steroid Hormones in Plasma

The conversion of clinical methods to LC/MS/MS offers advantages; however, is accompanied by a few limitations, notably interference effects from the endogenous sample matrix.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
