Introduction
The tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, also known as the citric acid cycle, is one of the key processes in living organisms for energy production and metabolism. Quantitative analysis of the TCA cycle is a method used to measure the concentrations of critical intermediates within this cycle. It has important applications in biomedical research, studies of metabolic disorders, and drug development.
By quantitatively measuring the intermediates in the TCA cycle, researchers can gain insights into the body's energy metabolism status, the regulation of metabolic pathways, and changes associated with disease conditions. In addition, TCA quantitative analysis can also be applied in the field of agriculture to assess energy metabolism and growth conditions in crops.
Features / strengths
1.Liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) was used to perform both quantitative and qualitative analysis of intermediates in the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle.
2.Analytes included oxaloacetic acid, citric acid, tartaric acid, and others.
