An analysis of urine and serum amino acids in critically ill patients upon admission by means of targeted LC–MS/MS: a preliminary study

Abstract Sepsis, defined as a dysregulated host response to infection, causes the interruption of homeostasis resulting in metabolic changes. An examination of patient metabolites, such as amino acids, during the early stage of sepsis may facilitate diagnosing and assessing the severity of the sepsi...
