A reproducible, rapid procedure for the simultaneous quantitative separation of S-adenosylmethionine and S-adenosylhomocysteine by capillary zone electrophoresis has been developed. Separations were performed by using an uncoated capillary of 60 cm effective length and 50 microm ID, 40 mM sodium phosphate buffer, pH 2.50, as background electrolyte solution, and 30 kV. On-line detection was carried out at 254 nm. Under the conditions selected we resolved a standard solution containing S-adenosylmethionine and S-adenosylhomocysteine in a run time shorter than 8 min. A mass detection limit in the range of 10 fmol was achieved. Adenosyl-L-methionine, S[methyl-3H] has also been assayed under the same experimental conditions. Other related compounds did not show interference, including those derived from the hydrolysis of S-adenosylmethionine. The present method allows simultaneous determination of these compounds, which play an important role in many microbiological and enzymatic research studies.

D012680 Sensitivity and Specificity Binary classification measures to assess test results. Sensitivity or recall rate is the proportion of true positives. Specificity is the probability of correctly determining the absence of a condition. (From Last, Dictionary of Epidemiology, 2d ed) Specificity,Sensitivity,Specificity and Sensitivity
D015203 Reproducibility of Results The statistical reproducibility of measurements (often in a clinical context), including the testing of instrumentation or techniques to obtain reproducible results. The concept includes reproducibility of physiological measurements, which may be used to develop rules to assess probability or prognosis, or response to a stimulus; reproducibility of occurrence of a condition; and reproducibility of experimental results.
