Abstract
A previously described derivatization method using trichlorophenylhydrazine was developed for the estimation of malonaldehyde measured by gas-chromatography (GC) with electron-capture detection. The precision and reliability of the procedure are improved here by the use of methylmalonaldehyde as internal standard and by the introduction of a diverter valve at the end of the capillary column to protect the electron-capture detector, respectively. The method was applied to determine malonaldehyde content in bovine plasma samples.
