The primal aim of this thesis was to establish whether kinetic aspects of vitamin B6 metabolism predispose to earlier observed racial differences found in plasma pyridoxal-5'-phosphate (PLP). The active forms of vitamin ...
N-methylnicotinamide as marker for biological methylation in humans

Rosemann, G.M. (Gertruida Magdalena) (University of Pretoria, 2006-03-13)

The purpose of this study was to determine whether the methylation of nicotinamide to N-methylnicotinamide could discriminate between differences in methionine nutritional status, and by implication methylation capacity, ...
Quantitative analysis of catecholamines and their metabolites in human urine by gas chromatography - mass spectrometry as a screening method for sympatho-adrenal tumors

Marais, Brian (University of Pretoria, 2009-04-15)

The endogenous catecholamines and their metabolites play an integral role in establishing the presence or absence of a suspected sympatho-adrenal tumor. Highly elevated metabolites excreted in the urine are indicative of ...
