Metabolic and drug profiling.
Over recent years, advances in analytical technology have greatly improved our ability to study the metabolism of compounds from either endogenous or erogenous sources. The application of gas-liquid chromatography, mass spectrometry, high-performance liquid chromatography and immunological approaches are discussed in relation to the analysis of steroids, bile acids, organic acids, prostaglandins, porphyrins and bile pigments, amino acids, proteins, nucleotides, catecholamines, vitamins and drugs.
