    Abstract:
    A new sensitive and accurate analytical method has been developed for quantification of intracellular nucleotides in complex biological samples from cultured cells of different microorganisms such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Escherichia coli, and Penicillium chrysogenum. This method is based on ion pair reversed phase liquid chromatography electrospray ionization isotope dilution tandem mass spectrometry (IP-LC-ESI-ID-MS/MS. A good separation and low detection limits were observed for these compounds using dibutylamine as volatile ion pair reagent in the mobile phase of the LC. Uniformly (13)C-labeled isotopes of nucleotides were used as internal standards for both extraction and quantification of intracellular nucleotides. The method was validated by determining the linearity, sensitivity, and repeatability.
