Branched-chain alpha-keto acids (BCKAs, namely, alpha-ketoisovaleric acid (KIV), alpha-ketoisocaproic acid (KIC), and alpha-keto-beta-methylvaleric acid (KMV)) are related to many diseases such as myeloid leukemia, liver cancer, and diabetes mellitus. A rapid quantitative analytical method for BCKAs using pillar array columns was developed. alpha-Keto acids were labeled with 1,2-diamino-4,5-methylenedioxybenzene (DMB), followed by their separation on octadecylsilane-treated pillar array columns with MeOH/H2O as the mobile phase. Five DMB-labelled alpha-keto acids including the internal standard were separated in 160 s. The lower limits of quantification for DMB-alpha-keto acids were 2-5 mu M. The intra- and interday precisions were 2.9-6.6 % and 5.2-10.7 %, respectively. The developed method was applied to BCKA quantification in human plasma samples; KIV, KIC, and KMV concentrations were determined to be 13.8, 24.2, and 15.2 mu M, respectively. The method realized rapid, sensitive, and precise analysis of BCKAs and can be applied for clinical diagnosis. (C) 2021 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
