UDP-Glucose, UDP-Galactose and Galactose-1-phosphate from Blood Cells

For most physiologically relevant Nucleotides, use of Mass Spectrometry is the most practical approach for the analysis with biological samples. With Mass Spec, it is essential to Separate UDP-Glucose and UDP-Galactose chromatographically because they are Isomers or Isobaric Compounds, (same molecular weight) and cannot be easily differentiated.

This Method was developed using MS and the samples were blood cell extracts. The Method resulted in excellent Precision.

Peaks:
1. UDP-Glucose: Uridine 5′-Diphosphateglucose, 565.0477 m/z (M-H)-
