Determination of plasme α-ketoisocaproate in patients with hepatic cirrhosis by stable isotope dilution-mass spectrometry
lasma α-ketoisocaproate concentrations in 20 patients with hepatic cirrhosis and 30 normal controls were determined by stable isotope dilution-mass spectrometry . It was found that the plasma level of this compound was much lower in patients(21.41±1.64μmol/L) than in normal subjectS (44.07± 1.51 μmol/L). Group t-test revealed a very significant difference with P<0.001. The significance and probable cause of such a difference is discussed.
