Determination of N tau-methylimidazoleacetic acid (a histamine metabolite) in urine by gas chromatography using nitrogen-phosphorus detection. 1982

J J Keyzer, and B G Wolthers, and H Breukelman, and H F Kauffman, and J G de Monchy

N tau-Methylimidazoleacetic acid, the quantitatively most important metabolite of histamine, was isolated from urine by ion exchange chromatography. After esterification with 2-propanol and extraction, N tao-methylimidazoleacetic acid was analyzed by capillary gas chromatography with nitrogen-phosphorus detection, using N tao-ethylimidazoleacetic acid as internal standard. The synthesis of this internal standard is described. In contrast to the methods hitherto described, this method is appropriate for use in clinical chemical laboratories. Normal 24-h excretion ranged from 8.3 to 18.5 mumol (n = 20). Five patients with mastocytosis, a patient with chronic myelocytic leukemia and a patient after an anaphylactoid reaction on acetylsalicylic acid showed highly elevated values.

D002849 Chromatography, Gas Fractionation of a vaporized sample as a consequence of partition between a mobile gaseous phase and a stationary phase held in a column. Two types are gas-solid chromatography, where the fixed phase is a solid, and gas-liquid, in which the stationary phase is a nonvolatile liquid supported on an inert solid matrix.

D004951 Esterification The process of converting an acid into an alkyl or aryl derivative. Most frequently the process consists of the reaction of an acid with an alcohol in the presence of a trace of mineral acid as catalyst or the reaction of an acyl chloride with an alcohol. Esterification can also be accomplished by enzymatic processes. Esterifications
