Notes: Please note the addition of small amount of ammonia to the sample matrix. The alkaline environment of the
sample matrix assured efficient and symmetrical peaks for all analytes.

Discussion:
UDP hexanolamine was used as the internal standard in the analysis of nucleotide sugars in this rapid analysis method. The mobile
phase was designed to maximize the detector response in LC-MS for maximum efficiency. The simple “inverse gradient” which produces
ANP (aqueous normal phase) HPLC method was required for the results shown therefore a Cogent Diamond Hydride column was chosen. This
method can be used in measuring metabolite concentration.
