Summary:Fructose and sorbitol are utilized as biomarkers for nonalcoholic steatohepatitis. Measurement of fructose and sorbitol levels helps understanding disease progression, drug response and underlying mechanism. Stable isotope-labeled fructose and sorbitol were used as surrogate standards and internal standards. Human plasma samples were processed and analyzed by ultra performance LC -MS/MS via chromatographic separation on a hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography analytical column without derivatization. Assay was validated with biomarker fit-for-purpose concept. A 12-min ultra performance LC -MS/MS method was developed and validated to directly measure fructose and sorbitol in human plasma with acceptable intra- and inter-assay precision and accuracy. This sensitive, selective, and high-throughput assay with suitable dynamic ranges was successfully applied to clinical studies to provide reliable fructose and sorbitol biomarker data.
